Product Information
Full details
The Tradetidy Mapp Gas Can Holder is designed for plumbing and HVAC professionals who need a secure, organized way to store propane and MAPP gas canisters in their work vehicles. This storage solution prevents rolling and tip-overs during transit while keeping canisters upright and accessible; however, it is specifically intended for workshop and van storage rather than mobile field use while connected to equipment.

FAQs
Does this pack include mounting hardware?
No, the pack includes the two holders, but you will need to provide your own mounting screws or fasteners appropriate for your specific installation surface.
Can I use this for larger canisters?
The holder is strictly designed for canisters with a base diameter of up to 73mm. Larger canisters will not fit.
Is it safe to store the torch on the canister?
Yes, the holder is specifically designed with extra height to accommodate storage with the torch head attached to the canister.
Are these suitable for use in a moving vehicle?
Yes, they are designed for van storage; however, always ensure the canister valve is fully closed before storing.
How many holders come in a package?
Each package contains two individual Tradetidy gas can holders.
Troubleshooting
Canister feels loose in the holder
Verify that your canister base diameter is 73mm or smaller; if it is significantly smaller, consider a foam spacer to ensure a tighter fit.
Holder shifting during transit
Re-tighten the mounting screws and ensure you are using appropriate anchors for the specific material of your van's interior wall.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, select a flat, vertical surface within your workshop or van that provides enough vertical clearance for the canister and torch height. Use appropriate mounting hardware to secure the holder firmly to your bulkhead or workbench. Ensure the location is away from direct heat sources to maintain safety. To care for the holders, periodically wipe them down with a clean, dry cloth to remove metal shavings or debris. Inspect the mounting points monthly to ensure the fasteners remain tight and the holder does not shift during travel.
