PHMSA cautions the public to never refill DOT 39 cylinders, such as the 1lb. cylinders used for camping.  While many types of propane cylinders are designed to be refilled, a DOT 39 cylinder of any size is strictly non-refillable.

DOT is committed to ensuring that information is available in appropriate alternative formats to meet the requirements of persons who have a disability. If you require an alternative version of files provided on this page, please contact PHMSA-Accessibility@dot.gov.
