Steel Cylinders

Designed in 2004 by XS Scuba, these hot-dip galvanized cylinders are manufactured in North America by Worthington Cylinders. The Worthington Cylinders Corp. is already the world's largest supplier of industrial steel cylinders, and has is becoming the market leader in SCUBA steel cylinders.

 

 

   All 15 sizes of the Worthington steel cylinders are now in stock and shipping from our southern California warehouse.

   There are three different "Series" of steel cylinders available. The most popular are high-pressure X-Series™ cylinders, as they offer the most air in the smallest size cylinders. The next is the low-pressure LP-Series™ cylinders which offer lower fill pressures, making them ideal for dive boats and many air compressors. Recently, a final "Series" was added by developing the new Pony-Series™ of small, backup-sized cylinders ranging from 13 to 40 cubic feet in size.

   The exterior of all XS Scuba steel cylinders are hot-dip galvanized. This highly-demanded and preferred finish is utilized on all Worthington steel cylinders offered by XS Scuba. Don't be misled by claims from companies distributing steel cylinders with painted exteriors. There is no better process to protect a steel cylinder from rust and corrosion than hot-dip galvinization!

Features

Manufacturing Process

  • Built from Chromium Molybdenum steel plate
  • Utilizes the deep drawn process; the preferred method to build a steel scuba cylinder
  • This process yields a cylinder with a very uniform wall thickness resulting in a lighter, more efficient cylinder
Buoyancy
  • Superior buoyancy characteristics (Specs)
  • These cylinders have been designed to be slightly negative at the end of a dive
Exterior Finish
  • Hot-dip galvanized - the absolute best finish for a steel scuba cylinder
Nitrox Ready
  • Cleaned and sealed at the factory
  • Free of hydrocarbons to a level of 40 mg per square meter
  • Ready for pre-blended Nitrox up to 40% FO2
Boots
  • Included with all XS Scuba steel cylinders, except Pony-Series™
  • Quality, self-draining design
Valves
  • All XS Scuba steel cylinders include the Thermo PRO valve
  • Convertible design allows for standard yoke or 230 bar DIN connections
  • Standard inlet thread (3/4"-14 NPSM) on cylinder allows upgrade to any other Thermo valve
  • These valves are clean for pre-blended Nitrox up to 40% FO2
