Where to buy butane near you

For torches, lighters and small jobs: cases of cans

Puretane n-butane comes in 300 ml cans, sold online in 12, 24 and 48 packs and shipped to addresses in the lower 48 states. Shipping is calculated at checkout by region and order weight. Shop cans online.

For businesses: pallets of cylinders

If you go through more than a few cases a month, cylinders are usually the better buy. We sell 120 lb cylinders of 100% n-butane and 70/30 n-butane/propane (110 lb fill), by the pallet of nine, with a one-pallet minimum. Pallets ship across the US and Canada in 2 to 8 days, and our cylinder exchange sends your empties back with the next delivery. Request a pallet quote.

For your own brand: private label

We also fill cans under your brand. See private-label cans.

Buying locally? What to check

• Ask for lab results. Good suppliers can show a Certificate of Analysis. Here is how to read one.
• Know what is in the can. N-butane, isobutane and propane behave differently. See how they compare.
• Watch for odor and residue. A strong smell or oily residue after evaporation points to sulfur compounds or contamination.
• Check the can or cylinder. Dents, rust or damaged valves are reasons to pass.

Why ordering direct helps

Many stores carry only a few cans at a time, and the brand on the shelf changes. Ordering a case or a pallet directly means you get the same product every time, shipped by ground to your door.
