Are you a wholesale buyer searching for a reliable 3kg gas cylinder supplier that offers consistent quality, competitive pricing, and on-time delivery? At Zhuzhou XingYe Chemical, we specialize in manufacturing food-grade nitrous oxide (N₂O) cylinders – from 580g chargers up to 3kg tanks – for the global food service, diving, and industrial sectors. With over a decade of expertise, we supply OEM/ODM solutions, complete certifications (COA, MSDS, ECM, Food-Grade), and flexible MOQs as low as 50 units. Read on to discover why import managers, brand owners, and wholesalers trust our wholesale 3kg gas cylinder program to serve their customers reliably.
Solving Your Top Sourcing Challenges
Procurement managers face common friction points when sourcing small gas cylinders:
- Inconsistent fill weights – leading to customer complaints and wasted gas.
- Non-compliant cylinders that risk customs delays or DOT rejections.
- Long, unpredictable lead times – up to 60 days from unvetted factories.
- Lack of customization – no OEM branding, packaging, or valve options.
Our 3kg gas cylinder service directly addresses these pain points. Every tank is manufactured under ISO 9001 quality management, tested to meet DOT 3AL (for U.S. import) and UN ISO 9809-1 standards, and filled with 99.9% pure food-grade N₂O. We offer MOQ from 50 units, typical lead time 15–25 working days, and full OEM support including custom labels, barcodes, and retail-ready packaging.

Compliance That Meets U.S. Import Requirements
Every 3kg gas cylinder we ship to the United States is manufactured under a strict quality control regime. We provide the following certifications with each batch:
- COA (Certificate of Analysis) – Batch‑specific gas purity (≥99.9% N₂O) and fill weight.
- MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) – Compliant with OSHA Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200).
- ECM (European Conformity) & Food‑Grade Certificate – Validates that the N₂O meets purity requirements for food contact.
- DOT & UN Certificates – Cylinders are designed and tested per DOT 3AL (49 CFR) and UN ISO 9809‑1. Each cylinder is stamped with the approved marks.
- ISO 9001:2015 – Our factory is audited annually for quality management systems.
We also assist with Customs clearance documents (e.g., US Coast Guard exemption letter if required). Our export team has shipped hundreds of containers of N₂O cylinders to the U.S. since 2016 without a single product refusal due to misdocumentation.

What Our Clients Say
James R. – Import Manager, SweetWhip Distribution (Newark, NJ)
“We’ve sourced 3kg N₂O cylinders from three different Chinese factories over five years. XingYe is the only one that delivers consistent fill weights, proper DOT stamping, and never misses our delivery window. Their after‑sales support is quick and helpful. Highly recommend for wholesale.”
Maria S. – Brand Owner, PerfectWhip Inc. (Los Angeles, CA)
