How to Size a Propane Tank:
If you have a propane tank and you need to know what size it is, all you’ll need is simple measuring tape. Most consumer propane tanks or cylinders are the following four general sizes; 20 lbs., 30 lbs., 40 lbs., 100 lbs.
Measure your propane tank vertically from the bottom to the base of the tank’s collar. The collar is the piece of metal that surrounds the propane tank’s valve.
Next, wrap your measuring tape around the propane tank to measure its diameter.
Compare your height & diameter to determine the size, see chart below:
PROPANE TANK HEIGHT | PROPANE TANK DIAMETER | = TANK SIZE |
