Balloon gas/helium cylinders
We offer an extensive range of balloon gas cylinders to suit your needs. There are three standard balloon gas cylinder sizes from small to large, known to us as the 'V', the 'T', and the 'L'. All of our high pressure cylinders come with a standard filling kit to ensure that you can regulate the gas flow to a usable level.
To work out the size of cylinder you require, you need to answer a few simple questions:
- What size and type of balloons do you want to use?
- How many balloons do you want to inflate?
- Using the table below, you can determine the size and number of cylinders you will need.
Note: The charts below show the approximate number of balloons filled. Numbers will vary according to balloon manufacturer and shape.
