Are you sourcing 16g threaded CO2 cartridges for your beverage carbonation, paintball, or industrial gas applications? As an import manager or brand owner, you need a supplier that delivers consistent quality, compliance with US safety standards, and fast turnaround. Our factory in Hunan, China, combines over 10 years of gas manufacturing experience with full OEM/ODM support, providing 16g threaded CO2 cartridges that meet CE, FDA, and ISO 9001 requirements. We understand the procurement challenges – from certification verification to lead time management – and offer scalable solutions for wholesalers and sourcing agents. Below, we detail how our supply chain can streamline your operations and reduce your cost per unit while maintaining uncompromised purity and thread precision.
Industry Pain Points: Why Sourcing 16g Threaded CO2 Cartridges Is Not Always Simple
Many buyers in the US and Europe have experienced inconsistent thread dimensions, leakage, or varying gas purity from unknown suppliers. Without proper certifications (such as FDA for food-grade applications or DOT/UN for transportation), importing cartridges can cause customs delays or safety recalls. Additionally, small MOQ requirements and long lead times from traditional factories force you to tie up capital in inventory. Our approach eliminates these pain points through transparency, documentation, and flexible production planning.
Our Solution: Certified 16g Threaded CO2 Cartridges from a Professional Factory
Zhuzhou XingYe Chemical Co., Ltd is a specialized manufacturer of industrial and food-grade gases, including CO2. Our 16g threaded CO2 cartridge is produced on automated high-speed lines with strict process control to ensure:
- Thread Consistency: Precision-machined threads (5/8″-18 UNF standard) compatible with most soda siphon and paintball devices.
- Gas Purity: ≥99.9% CO2, moisture <20 ppm, oil <5 ppm – verified by COA (Certificate of Analysis) with each lot.
- Steel Shell Strength: Cold-drawn carbon steel, heat-treated, burst pressure >240 bar (safety factor 3:1).
- Compliance: ISO 9001:2015, FDA 21 CFR 175.300, CE (European Pressure Equipment Directive), and UN approved packaging for international shipping.
We offer full traceability from raw material to finished product, with in-house testing for leak, weight, and thread gauge.

Why Certification Matters for 16g Threaded CO2 Cartridges
US import regulations require that pressure receptacles (UN 1950) meet DOT SP or equivalent standards. Our cartridges are UN tested and certified for carriage. Additionally, for food contact applications (e.g., carbonating drinks), FDA compliance ensures no harmful substances migrate into the gas. We provide a complete compliance package with every shipment:
- Certificate of Analysis (COA) per lot
- Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) in English
- Declaration of Conformity to FDA 21 CFR 175.300 (if required)
- UN packaging certificate
- ISO 9001:2015 certificate (company level)
We recommend that you consult with your local customs broker to ensure all documentation is in order. Our team can assist with paperwork for CBP clearance.
