50 CU.FT. LUXFER BAILOUT BOTTLE/SCUBA TANK WITH PRO VALVE AND THREAD STAMP (A050A-T)
Luxfer developed the world’s first aluminum SCUBA cylinder in collaboration with the famous underwater explorer Jacques-Yves Cousteau. In 1988, Luxfer introduced SCUBA tanks manufactured from L6X, a proprietary formula of aluminum alloy 6061-T6 developed by Luxfer metallurgists to provide superior corrosion-resistance and dependable performance in the most demanding underwater environments. Compared to conventional alloys, L6X has been optimized to improve durability, fracture toughness and resistance to cracking and tearing, even under high pressures over long periods. More than 50 million Luxfer cylinders manufactured from L6X alloy have an exemplary record for safety, long service life and reliable performance. The cylinders are approved to DOT-3 AL and ISO 7866 Standards and prepared for use with oxygen-enriched breathing mixtures.
To meet the requirements of many companies, our cylinders and K valves are stamped with the thread size.
