METAL GAS CYLINDER

Our metal gas cylinder is a heavy-duty pressure vessel engineered to safely store and transport compressed gases. Its design focuses on structural integrity and ease of handling.

Key Specifications: - Construction: Typically made from high-grade carbon steel or seamless aluminum. Steel is used for durability and cost, while aluminum is preferred for weight reduction and corrosion resistance. - Geometry: A vertical cylindrical body with a rounded "crown" (top) and a reinforced "foot ring" (base) that allows it to stand securely on flat surfaces. - The Valve System: A brass or stainless steel valve is threaded into the neck to control gas flow. It usually includes a shroud (handle) to protect the valve from impact damage. - Safety Features: Equipped with a pressure relief device to prevent ruptures during extreme heat and "Tare Weight" markings stamped into the shoulder to indicate its empty mass. - Finish: Finished with a protective powder coating (often color-coded by gas type) to prevent rust and provide a clean, professional appearance.
