Titan. Durable, wear-resistant and light weight material, characterized by high resistance to corrosion and resistance to high temperatures. Burners in a titanium alloy body make ammunition as light as possible in comparison with models made of other metals, which is extremely important when hiking.
— Steel. The stainless steel body guarantees a long service life of the burner due to its high resistance to corrosion. Steel also tolerates high temperatures well.
The total weight of the device. Usually, the specifications indicate "dry" weight — excluding fuel.
Lightness is important on long hikes where you have to carry your gear; on the other hand, ceteris paribus, less weight means either low strength and reliability, or greater cost. The lightest classic type burners and lamps (see "Type") weigh
up to 200 g, in the working position, most of the mass of such a device falls on fuel. However, there are also more massive models. For plates, in turn, lightness is not critical, and most of these models are quite heavy —
1 kg or more. In heaters, the weight can be different — from 60 – 70 g in pocket hand warmers to 1.5 kg (or even more) in powerful outdoor appliances.
