I found one for you but its made from anodized aluminum.
I would say they are from the late 60's early to mid 80's from Coleman before they went to cheap part and higher prices.

This is a long awaited split call for Big Tony and Padiggydirt!
I'd have to say that you are correct in you timeline Pa and Big Tony with the manufacture. Although many disagree. These are Mantle Flanges from Coleman lanterns from the 50's and 60's.
I actually loved all the responses and some of them were pretty good. And pretty funny.
Although they were referenced as head pipe configurations by the best of us, (including me originally before I posted), they are not. I find empty glue tubes and rolled aluminum foil crack pipe configurations all over the place. Amazing how the population is some respects wants to be "Wasted". With the cheapest methods because they blew all the money on the dope.
These however are what they are.
Congrats Padiggydirt and Big Tony!

CASE CLOSED!
I agree with this newest generation being wasted.... Future leaders of the country with low brain cell counts....wait, we have that already....lol.
Just to let you both know, the Donate Coins button is deceased as of a couple months ago. So Joe is swiping my coin account of 125 coins for the each of you when he gets some time to do it! Spend it wisely! Coins don't grow on trees ya know!

Wow and a big thank you to Ed\odf. Very cool - I forgot all about this contest -
And yeah Ed I remember those parts for the pipes and folks being wasted....that was then and it was a fad - I moved on of course and have a terrific family with grand kids....
Thanks to Paddy Digger for gettting involved with this older post. It was fun reading what the players had to say...
I forgot too,
Was more interested in the history part! Thanks Ed, look forward to more brain teasers !

The winners will be based on the first accurate answer by time posted.
I know what they are but I have no idea who made them and when, that's why I'm offering coins for the answer and I'm pretty bored so this will greatly help me identify at least the date of the spot I found one of them. Which to me is pretty important.
Both were found in spots miles from each other deep in the woods.
I remember where I found the first one but for the life of me cannot remember where I found the one with the knurls on it. The screen was in the knurled one caked in with mud.
Your clue is "Camping"!
Good luck and HH!!
They're the things the fire comes out of on a gas fire camping stove,I'd say 1950s and don't know manufacturers
