C02 Tank - Afro engineers need your input

[bushhog750]

Before I **** can this C02 tank can it be used for anything else. Like a compressed air tank or anything else useful. My neighbor gave it to me, he used it on his keg-o-rator. If it can't be used or converted to something worth having its gotta go.

Re: C02 Tank

Anyway to make it into a water tank like a fire suppression system possibly.

Not quite as useful but I've recently been seeing people cut the bottom off the tank and using a few more of them as some big ole wind chimes.

Comes in handy as an air tank

what is the date stamped into it???

I believe it needs hydro-tested every 5 years...

I found one at a flea market, took it to my local fire extinguisher company and had them hydro-test it...was $16 for the test, cost $19 for them to fill it with CO2....

been filling tires and using air tools ever since

Date is 4/03. I will have it tested I guess. Portable air tank is always a good thing to have.

Me personally i would go buy another kegerator! Seems like a no brainer! :****:

Should work perfect as an air tank. Looks like you already have a regulator on it so get it tested and filled and put an air chuck on it and your good to go!

I wouldn't get a damn thing done with another one in the garage.

I've got several and use them for air tools and airing up tires on the trail. I don't get them recertified just swap out the tank with another and it's 15 bucks for a 20lb tank.

Will they swap an expired tank for a new one. I'm gonna call airgas or praxair tomorrow.

I get mine filled at a fire extinguisher place, the welding company's have steel tanks, I'd rather have the aluminum :****:

Airgas will not sure about other places. Cheaper than getting the certs and faster since you drop one off and pick up a new one. I have 5 or 6 so I usually take a couple with me each time. They have aluminum and steel and whatever you have is what you get back.

I've never swapped and expired tank at Airgas, but I haven't noticed anyone ever check the date on the tanks I have swapped.
