Butane & Propane Gas Regulators

Here you will find wide range of butane and propane gas regulators for low and high-pressure applications. Both butane and propane gas regulators are a popular choice for use with blow torches and other gas-powered outdoor equipment like stoves and grills, offering greater control over the gas cylinders used to provide the gas. 

Butane and Propane Gas Regulators

Propane and Butane gas regulators control the flow of gas from a gas cylinder to appliances. Gas regulators are an essential component to reduce the pressure of LPG in the cylinder to match the much lower pressure required by your appliance thus making it safe for your home, business, caravan, or motorhome. They ensure consistent pressure for safe and efficient flow of gases through the hose, monitored on the gauges.

Butane and Propane are two forms of LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas). We stock both propane and butane gas regulators which serve similar needs but differ in their pressure settings.

Propane regulators are designed to handle higher pressures, typically around 20psi on the gauge. Propane provides a high flame temperature for heavy-duty applications. They are suitable for appliances like outdoor grills and heatings systems.

Butane regulators, on the other hand, cater to lower pressures, usually around 28-30 mbar (millibars). They are ideal for ligher-duty tasks like soldering irons, portable stoves, camping equipment, and smaller appliances due to its lower pressure.

When choosing a gas regulator, it’s crucial to match it with the specific gas type (propane or butane) and the intended appliance. 

An important aspect to note is the service life of your gas regulator which must be specified by the manufacturer. If it is not then the recommended service life is 10 years as long the regulator has been used according to the manufacturer’s guidelines.  

Engweld also stocks butane and propane regulator accessories and welding gas regulators for industrial use including Single Stage, Multi Stage, Nevoc and High-Pressure Gas Regulators. For gas cylinders, visit our sister site Energas.
