How Steel Scuba Cylinders Are Made

How It Is Done 2 Comments

Steel scuba cylinders are becoming more and more popular among scuba divers in the United States.  Over the past five years, steel has taken considerable market share away from aluminum cylinders, the mainstay of the scuba cylinder industry for the past 20 years.

Worthington Cylinders of Canada entered the scuba cylinder market about two years ago, providing a ready and available supply of low-pressure (2400PSI) and high-pressure (3442 PSI) steel scuba cylinders in a variety of sizes.  Since that time, they have quickly become the dominant force in steel cylinder supply in North America.

About two weeks ago, I received a really nice video from Mike Piantoni, owner of XS Scuba, one of the two North American distributors of the Worthington cylinders.  This video details the manufacturing and testing process for Worthington steel scuba cylinders.  I thought it might be of interest to readers, so take a look and let me know what you think.
