A 5 lb propane tank is a bare steel cylinder with an exposed brass valve on top. Left loose in a cargo area or a drawer it rolls, dents panels, scuffs finishes, and carries rust, mud and grime onto everything packed around it. This bag is cut for the 5 lb tank so the cylinder and its valve travel contained instead of knocking around your kit. It is hand-sewn from heavy-duty, weather-resistant fabric that keeps rain, snow and trail dirt off the tank between trips, which matters because a wet steel cylinder is a rusty steel cylinder. Heavy-duty straps carry the load through the body of the bag rather than through the seams, and the top opens wide so you can lift the tank straight out and hook up a hose without unpacking anything else.

The propane tank is sold separately. The bag is sized around a standard 5 lb cylinder, so oversized or aftermarket tanks of the same nominal weight may not fit.
