XS Scuba Nitrox Ready Steel Cylinders, Manufactured in North America by Worthington Cylinders. Worthington is new to manufacturing SCUBA cylinders, yet they are the world's oldest and largest supplier of industrial steel cylinders.
Steel Cylinder Features:
Manufacturing Process
Built from Chromium Molybdenum steel plates
Utilizes the deep drawn process; the preferred method to build a SCUBA steel cylinder
This process yields a cylinder with a very uniform wall thickness resulting in a lighter, more efficient cylinder.
Buoyancy
Superior buoyancy characteristics
These cylinders have been designed to be slightly negative at the end of a dive
Exterior Finish
A three-step, rust-preventative process
Consists of shotblasting, protective zinc coating, followed by a durable powder coat finish
Interior Finish
Highly-resistant to internal rusting
Phosphatized interior
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
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) allows upgrade to any other Thermo valve
These valves are clean for pre-blended Nitrox up to40% FO2
Boots
Included with all XS Scuba steel cylinders

Comments about XS-Scuba/Worthington XS Scuba Worthington Cylinder HP 65 Steel 3442 psi. 2006 hydro:
Really nice compact tank. I purchased 2 and putting them together as doubles to replace my old doubles which are getting too heavy.
Less weight and compactness will be easier to carry on my back especially for my shore dives.
