GasBank GB505 is an LPG cylinder filling adapter with a ACME coupling on the station side and a W21.8 x 1/14 LH (left-hand) thread on the cylinder side. Screw it into a cylinder valve with this thread - for example the G.12 KLF valve of GasBank SINGLE cylinders - and fill LPG at stations whose nozzles use the ACME coupling. Mainly needed in: Germany, Belgium, Ireland, Luxembourg.
What it is for
- lets you fill an LPG cylinder from a ACME nozzle
- threaded ACME coupling - the station nozzle is screwed onto the adapter and locked with its lever
- fits cylinder valves with W21.8 x 1/14 LH thread, e.g. the G.12 KLF valve of GasBank SINGLE 5, 7.5 and 11 kg cylinders
- together with the DISH W21.8 adapter it makes a set for stations all over Europe
Where you need it
- Germany
- Belgium
- Ireland
- Luxembourg
- Liechtenstein
- Austria and Switzerland - alongside DISH
- outside Europe: USA, Canada, Australia, Chile
- the DISH coupling (e.g. Poland, France, Italy) needs the DISH W21.8 adapter
How to fill a cylinder with the adapter
- stand the cylinder upright and level, as described in its instructions
- screw the adapter into the cylinder valve and hand-tighten it - the thread is left-hand, so turn it anticlockwise
- connect the station nozzle to the adapter and fill according to the station rules - the cylinder valve stops filling at 80%
- after filling, disconnect the nozzle and unscrew the adapter - a small amount of gas may escape when unscrewing
- keep the adapter in a pouch so that the thread and seal stay clean
Build
- body turned from brass
- W21.8 x 1/14 LH thread with seal on the cylinder side

Safety and regulations
