    Here is the attachment for my Primus 2052 camping stove. Am endeavouring to buy an adaptor to suit a standard 3/8 gas bottle.

    However do not know what the attachment is called and particulary the thread size. It seems to be a pretty common Primus attachment from years past.

    Any information would be much appreciated.

    3/8" Left Hand thread to PRIMUS Right Hand Internal Thread LPG Brass Gas Adapter

    vertical male 3/8″ Left-Handed thread
    • this is used on smaller 1-4kg cylinders such as Companion brand cylinders
    Primus gas cylinder thread
    • proprietary fitting used on Primus bottles that has an internal fitting that only allows gas to flow once the fitting is fully inserted into the cylinder

    Thanks all for your replies, now to chase up an adaptor. Looking forward to putting the old 2052 into use.

    This site is interesting:

    Komplett slangset till Primus campingkök 2050/2052/2061/2062

    This is the tube. The connection is as follows:
    1) Swedish-style cylinder thread (M14*1.5)
    2) 3/8 left-hand connector
    3) Orange tube
    4) Stove connector, I don't know the type.

    You can purchase an adapter from your favorite gas bottle to 3/8 left.

    For example a CFH 52121 AV 121 Connection Valve

    You just have to pay attention to the different thread standards, whether right or left hand.
