Raffles Covers gas bottle covers – premium protection for 5 kg, 8 kg and 11 kg gas bottles
A Raffles Covers gas bottle cover protects your gas bottle against rain, dirt, snow, frost, UV radiation and other weather conditions. The covers are designed for common 5 kg, 8 kg and 11 kg gas bottles with corresponding dimensions. Their close fit keeps your gas bottle neatly covered beside a barbecue, outdoor kitchen, patio heater, caravan or motorhome.
The covers are made from durable ProCap material. It combines a strong, waterproof polyurethane outer layer with a breathable polyester inner layer. The material construction is UV resistant and hard-wearing. The breathable inner layer helps moisture escape and reduces condensation beneath the cover.
An adjustable drawstring with stopper provides a neat fit around the bottle and helps prevent the cover from lifting in windy conditions. The gas bottle covers are available in black, grey and green.

Which size gas bottle cover do you need?
The capacity in kg is a useful guide, but diameter and overall height determine the correct fit. Gas bottles with the same stated capacity can vary in size between brands and designs. Always measure the widest diameter and total height, including any protruding parts.
| Product | Suitable for | Cover diameter | Cover height |
|---|---|---|---|
| RCGF5 | 5 kg gas bottle | Ø 24 cm | 33 cm |
| RCGF8 | 8 kg gas bottle | Ø 24 cm | 46 cm |
| RCGF11 | 11 kg gas bottle | Ø 31 cm | 60 cm |
Choose a cover with internal dimensions equal to or slightly larger than your measured gas bottle. The cover should not be stretched. Check protruding valves, handles, collars and connections before ordering.

Breathable with waterproof material
A good gas bottle cover does more than keep rain away. ProCap material has a waterproof outer layer, while the breathable polyester inner layer helps moisture escape. This reduces condensation and helps keep the gas bottle and valve clean and dry.
For effective ventilation, make sure the gas bottle is dry before fitting the cover. During prolonged outdoor use, check regularly for any moisture beneath the cover.
Suitable for a range of applications
Raffles Covers gas bottle covers can be used for gas bottles with corresponding dimensions alongside:
- gas barbecues and BBQs;
- outdoor kitchens;
- patio heaters;
- pizza ovens;
- camping gas bottles;
- caravans and motorhomes;
- propane and butane gas bottles of corresponding dimensions.
Always check the actual dimensions of your gas bottle. A 5 kg, 8 kg or 11 kg designation does not guarantee identical diameter and height across all bottles.
Securing, use and safety
Tighten the drawstring so the cover sits neatly around the bottle. In strong winds, check that the cover remains adequately secured. Only fit the cover over a closed, cool gas bottle and keep it away from naked flames, hot surfaces and sharp components.
The cover is intended for protection during storage and when connected equipment is not in use. Remove the cover before using the gas bottle, barbecue, patio heater or other connected appliance.
Maintaining your gas bottle cover
- Ideally fit the cover over a clean, dry gas bottle.
- Remove light dirt with lukewarm water and a soft cloth or brush.
- The cover can be washed at 30 °C when required.
- Do not use aggressive cleaning products, bleach or solvents.
- Allow the cover to dry completely before refitting or storing it.
