The Primus Express Spider is a lightweight, remote-canister backpacking stove built for stability, wind resistance, and cold-weather reliability. Its low, ground-hugging design and integrated preheating coil deliver consistent performance when conditions turn cold or blustery. By moving the canister away from the flame via a braided hose, this stove offers a much lower center of gravity than traditional "sit-on-top" burners, making it a dependable choice for supporting larger pots on uneven terrain or alpine expeditions.

  • Remote Canister Stability: The low-profile "spider" leg design significantly reduces tip-over risk and allows for better wind shielding compared to standard upright stoves.
  • Cold Weather Preheating Coil: Features an integrated brass coil that preheats the fuel before it reaches the burner, ensuring a strong, steady flame even in near-freezing temperatures.
  • 2000W Precision Burner: Delivers fast, even heating with a flame that can be finely tuned from a rolling boil to a gentle simmer via the canister-mounted valve.
  • MultiFuel Capability: Unique among lightweight stoves, the Express Spider can be converted to run on liquid fuels (naphtha, unleaded, or kerosene) with the optional MultiFuel Kit.
  • Compact & Lightweight: Weighing in at only 200 g (7 oz), it folds down remarkably small to fit inside most backpacking pots for streamlined packing.
  • Included Protection: Comes complete with a heat reflector to maximize fuel efficiency and a durable nylon storage bag for transport.
