Great size for primary youth cylinder or instructional pool cylinder, the 63 cubic foot has an ample air capacity and is compact in comparison to a full 80 cylinder.

The 63 cubic foot bottle has a 3000 psi (207 bar) service pressure rating, a capacity of 61 cu. ft. (8.7 liters), is negative 2.3 lbs. (1.0 kg) when full and is positive 0.6 lbs.

Aluminum cylinders unlike steel cylinders don't rust, they oxidize. The oxidization of aluminum forms a protective coat that hinders the continuation of corrosion making aluminum cylinders less likely to be condemned due to excessive corrosion. When shipped the tanks valves will be removed and the tank will require re-inspection before being filled.
