Lightweight Propane or Butane Gas Spanner

This lightweight gas spanner is the simple, low-cost tool for connecting propane and butane regulators and hose assemblies. It fits the nuts on standard gas fittings, so you can do up a connection firmly and correctly rather than relying on hand-tightening, which can leave a joint loose. It does the same job as the heavyweight spanner, just in a lighter, cheaper form that’s easy to keep in a caravan locker or toolbox.

Getting a gas connection snug is what keeps it secure, and a dedicated spanner makes that quick and consistent every time you swap a cylinder or set up an appliance. Because it works with both propane and butane fittings, one spanner covers most LPG jobs, from a caravan or motorhome to a BBQ or a cylinder at home.

After connecting, it’s always worth checking the joint is sound, which is where a gas leak detection fluid earns its place. We deliver across our defined postcode area around Reading. Check your postcode is covered before ordering, or call the yard on 0118 9242888.

Does it work with propane and butane?

Yes. It suits both propane and butane fittings, so one spanner covers most LPG jobs, from a caravan or motorhome to a BBQ or a cylinder at home. Check it matches the fittings you’re using if you’re unsure.
