The proposed invention is a device which prevents the generally uncontrolled rolling motion of an arbitrary cylindrically shaped object, preferably a gas bottle, for example in the boot of a vehicle, and thereby prevents the risks, for example to persons in the compartment where the gas bottles are transported. The device according to the invention is realized in one piece and is shaped in the form of a wedge. Generally it is made of an arbitrary material that is strong enough to withstand the dynamic loads originating from a cylindrical object weighing approximately 100 kg. The wedge according to the invention is in the preferred embodiment made of ABS plastics. The wedge according to the invention is defined by its body being bounded by a rectangular base face, an inclined face, two faces, and two dividing faces. Two said faces define the wedge shape of device according to the invention. The angle between the said faces is approximately between 16° and 45°. A relatively small angle makes it possible for the device to usually wedge by itself and thereby prevent the gas bottle from sliding. There are shaped teeth arranged all over the bottom surface of the base. The teeth are sharp and shaped so as to lodge into the underlying surface, and in this way ensure the wedge has a good grip on a soft surface, and thereby prevent the wedge and the cylindrical vessel with it from moving in the transversal direction.
