Specifically relating to some chinese gas bottles, the gland nut may be loose. As you turn off the cylinder, you may infact be undoing the gland nut if it is loose as it uses a left hand thread. This will release the entire contents of the cylinder quite quickly & with no way to stop it!
The bulletin that the post above refers to is here...http://www.nrw.qld.gov.au/mines/petr...y_alert030.pdf
Thanks, Richard
