Aluminium Tyre Rack Gas Bottle Holder – 4×4 4.5kg Gas Bottle Storage

Buy Aluminium Tyre Rack Bottle Holder, Maximise the storage capacity of your 4×4 without adding unnecessary weight with our Aluminium Tyre Rack Gas Bottle Holder. Designed for touring vehicles, off-road 4WDs, camper builds and adventure rigs, this CNC cut and folded aluminium gas bottle platform provides a practical way to carry a 4.5kg gas bottle securely on your tyre rack while making better use of otherwise limited exterior storage space.

For many 4×4 owners, storage becomes one of the biggest challenges when preparing a vehicle for touring. Recovery equipment, camping gear, spare parts, tools, fuel, water and cooking equipment can quickly fill the available space inside the vehicle. Moving selected equipment outside the cabin can free up valuable interior storage while keeping essential gear accessible.

The Aluminium Tyre Rack Gas Bottle Holder is designed specifically around this idea. It uses the same lower base platform as the tyre rack range, allowing different top configurations to be interchanged according to your setup. This means you can adapt your tyre rack storage system over time rather than replacing the entire lower platform every time your requirements change.

Lightweight Aluminium Construction

The holder is manufactured from CNC cut and folded aluminium, providing a strong and practical storage solution while keeping unnecessary weight to a minimum.

For 4×4 touring applications, weight matters. Every accessory added to a vehicle contributes to the overall load, and excessive weight can affect vehicle performance, fuel consumption and available payload.

Using aluminium allows this gas bottle holder to provide a purpose-built storage platform without the weight associated with a comparable steel construction.

The CNC cutting and folding process also allows the aluminium panels to be accurately shaped for the intended application. Rather than using a generic basket or universal carrier, the holder has been designed as part of a modular tyre rack system.

Designed for 4.5kg Gas Bottles

This gas bottle platform is made to suit 4.5kg gas bottles, providing convenient external storage for a common camping and touring gas bottle size.

The holder accommodates bottles up to approximately:

• 400mm high
• 270mm wide

Always check the dimensions of your specific gas bottle before ordering, as bottle dimensions can vary between manufacturers and models.

Keeping the gas bottle outside the main cabin can also help free up internal storage space for other touring equipment. The dedicated platform keeps the bottle positioned on the tyre rack system rather than taking up room inside the vehicle.

For camping trips, weekend adventures, extended touring and remote travel, this can make a significant difference to how your vehicle is organised.

Concealed Mounting Strap Ratchet

One of the standout design features is the concealed mounting strap ratchet.

The mounting strap ratchet is not included with the product, but the design allows the ratchet to be concealed when the system is fully assembled.

This creates a much cleaner appearance compared with a conventional external ratchet strap where the large shiny ratchet mechanism remains visible.

The concealed arrangement helps maintain the clean, purposeful appearance of the tyre rack while keeping the securing system positioned out of the way.

A suitable ratchet strap should always be selected and installed according to the requirements of your particular gas bottle and vehicle setup.

Ratchet strap not included.

Stainless Steel Latch and Face-Mount Hinges

The gas bottle platform incorporates a stainless steel latch and face-mount hinges, providing a robust and practical closure system.

Stainless steel components are particularly useful for external vehicle accessories because they are exposed to weather, dust, moisture and changing environmental conditions.

The latch helps keep the gas bottle storage area securely closed, while the face-mounted hinges allow the platform to open and close as required.

Together, these components provide a functional combination of access, security and durability.

The design also gives the gas bottle its own dedicated storage location rather than requiring it to be strapped loosely to another part of the vehicle.

Modular Tyre Rack System

One of the major advantages of this product is its compatibility with the broader tyre rack platform system.

All products in the tyre rack range use the same lower base platform.

This means you can change the upper configuration depending on what you need to carry.

The available options include:

• Standard tyre rack platform
• Gas bottle platform
• Maxtrax holder

Because the lower platform is shared, you can adapt your setup as your touring requirements change.

For example, you may use the gas bottle platform for a camping trip, then change to a Maxtrax holder for a more off-road-focused adventure. This modular approach means your tyre rack can evolve with your vehicle rather than being locked into one configuration.

Top variants can be purchased separately. Contact us for availability and purchasing options.

Gas Bottle Platform and Lower Base Included

This product includes both the:

• Gas bottle platform
• Lower base platform

This gives you the core components required for the gas bottle configuration.

The modular design also means that additional top variants can be purchased separately if you want to expand or change your tyre rack setup in the future.

Contact us if you would like to purchase additional top configurations separately.

Texture Black Powder Coat Finish

The standard finish is a texture black powder coat, providing the tyre rack gas bottle holder with a durable and understated appearance.

The textured finish complements a wide range of 4×4 accessories and vehicle colours while helping the holder blend into the overall appearance of an off-road or touring vehicle.

Black powder coating is a popular finish for exterior 4WD accessories because it provides a clean, professional look and a protective coating over the aluminium surface.

For owners wanting something different from the standard finish, custom colours are available upon request.

If you have a particular vehicle colour, brand theme or custom touring build, contact us to discuss available custom powder-coat options.

Designed for 31″–35″ Tyres

The tyre rack system is designed to suit 31-inch to 35-inch tyres.

This makes the gas bottle holder particularly relevant to 4×4 owners running larger tyres as part of their touring or off-road setup.

Before purchasing, confirm your tyre size and ensure the complete tyre rack configuration is suitable for your specific vehicle.

The gas bottle platform is intended to work as part of the tyre rack system rather than as a standalone universal gas bottle carrier.

Ideal for 4×4 Touring

The ability to carry essential equipment externally is particularly valuable when building a vehicle for long-distance travel.

A typical 4×4 touring setup may need to carry:

• Camping equipment
• Cooking equipment
• Recovery gear
• Maxtrax
• Tools
• Spare parts
• Water
• Food
• Refrigeration equipment
• Clothing
• First-aid equipment
• Gas bottles
• Spare tyres

Interior space can disappear quickly once all this equipment is loaded.

Moving the gas bottle onto a dedicated external tyre rack platform helps create additional room inside the vehicle while keeping the bottle in an accessible location.

For touring vehicles that regularly travel long distances, this type of modular storage system can help make packing and equipment organisation much easier.

A Cleaner Alternative to Loose Gas Bottle Storage

A gas bottle should not simply be left unsecured in the back of a vehicle.

The dedicated tyre rack platform provides a defined location for the bottle and incorporates a latch and mounting arrangement designed around external storage.

The concealed ratchet design also reduces the visual clutter normally associated with external strap systems.

The result is a cleaner-looking solution that integrates the gas bottle into the overall tyre rack rather than making it look like an afterthought.

Built for Adventure and Off-Road Vehicles

Whether you’re preparing a touring 4WD for an extended trip or building an adventure vehicle for weekend exploration, external storage can be one of the most useful modifications you make.

The Aluminium Tyre Rack Gas Bottle Holder combines lightweight construction, modular compatibility and practical storage into one purpose-built accessory.

Its CNC cut and folded aluminium construction keeps weight down, while the stainless steel latch and hinges provide a durable hardware solution.

The textured black powder-coat finish gives the holder a professional appearance suitable for modern 4WD builds, touring vehicles and custom off-road setups.

Why Choose an Aluminium Gas Bottle Holder?

There are several reasons aluminium is particularly well suited to touring accessories.

It provides a useful combination of:

• Low weight
• Practical strength
• Corrosion resistance
• Easy fabrication
• Clean appearance
• Suitability for custom fabrication

For a vehicle that already carries a substantial payload, keeping accessory weight under control can be important.

The CNC-fabricated aluminium construction helps achieve the desired functionality without unnecessarily adding the mass associated with heavier materials.

Expand Your Tyre Rack Setup

The modular design is one of the key benefits of this system.

Rather than purchasing an entirely different tyre rack every time you want to carry different equipment, the shared lower platform allows you to change the upper configuration.

Use the Gas Bottle Platform when you need additional camping storage.

Switch to the Maxtrax Holder when your trip requires dedicated recovery-board storage.

Or use the Standard Platform when you want a general-purpose tyre rack configuration.

This flexibility makes the system suitable for 4×4 owners whose equipment requirements change from trip to trip.
