Depends on the brand. Here's a shot of the two I have... both different sizes.

All brands are different, couldn't figure out for the life of me what brand was meant to fit the brackets on my CT.  Turned out all I had to do was cut and shut a few of the welds, again.
MK Triton Dual Cab.
Cheap gal trailer with some stuff added.

I scored a 4.5kg bottle on Sunday. Found it when out 4wding, some ($:@:/; had dumped it along with some other stuff. Out of test, but I'll exchange it at the servo :)

If the size of you bottle holder was too big can you use self adhesive foam to make the hole smaller, this is what I have done with a few camper trailers.

Dont throw any away , have made the odd camping / shed heater out of the little buggers and am about to convert one to a storage / air receiver and mount it under my tray.Plan is to have two outlets at each end of Veh and one under the bonnet to give that extra when needed for tyres or blowing the dust off.
