GasBank Single SLIM – Kevlar LPG gas cylinder with a filling limit valve up to 80% (OPD)
The technology uses ultra-strong Aramid fibers (also known under the trade names Kevlar or Twaron). The choice of Aramid over fiberglass is dictated by performance and durability. When looking at specific strength, it even beats carbon fiber, and it takes 10 times more fiberglass to achieve the same strength. Processing aramid fibers at high speeds is also relatively easy. Last but not least, the fatigue life of Aramid compared to glass fibers is much better. It's not just about the type of fibers, but also about the way they are wound. And here lies one of the most spectacular innovations, the fibers are dry processed and stay in place by winding them in special patterns. Thanks to this, the entire cylinder withstands huge deformations under high impact loads.
GasBank SLIM
Gas cylinder that can be filled at LPG stations. Perfect for cooking, heating in a caravan, camper or boat, for industrial burners and for any application wherever a standard LPG cylinder can be used.
The cylinder is made of a light composite material ensuring durability and meeting high protection requirements. Low weight, combined with practical handles, guarantees convenient transport of the gas cylinder.
Safe filling of LPG throughout Europe
The cylinder is equipped with the most popular G12 inlet and outlet valve in Europe with a rubber seal, also known as KLF - Kleinflashe (G.12) . The valve thread is 21.8mm x 1/14 LH. This type of valve is used in countries such as: Austria, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Russia, Serbia, Slovenia, Spain, Switzerland, UK.
Safety features
The GASBANK valve, unlike valves on standard LPG cylinders, has a unique OPD system allowing safe filling at any LPG station.
The automatic OPD valve (overfill protection) stops filling when the gas level will reach 80%.
Sustainable development
By using the GasBank Slim cylinder, it is worth knowing that you save 71% of CO2 compared to the steel equivalent. And this is even if we ignore the recycling of GasBank Slim cylinders (which is 100%!). The main factors contributing to such a low environmental impact are:
Zero emissions and waste during production
80% weight reduction compared to steel No maintenance required (no corrosion, no painting)
Fully recyclable (the only composite technology that offers this)

eCamp Lublin service
We perform tightness checks of gas installations in trailers and campers according to the German DVGW G 607 worksheet
The price includes:
- Protocol leak test of the gas installation
- Sticker on the vehicle confirming the gas tightness check
- Help if the installation is leaky or does not meet the appropriate requirements for caravanning installations
It is recommended to check the tightness of the installation every 2 years.
The reducer and the high pressure hose must be replaced after 10 years, counting from the production date.
Additionally, the eCamp Lublin service can provide:
– Installation of gasbank and other gas cylinders, MonoControl and duoControl CS reducers
– Refueling systems for gas cylinders and tanks
