These empty acetylene tanks are designed for professional jewelers, metalsmiths, and torch users who require a reliable vessel for acetylene gas. Available in two standard tank types — the compact MC and the larger B — each tank features industry-standard CGA valve fittings for use with compatible acetylene regulators. Tanks must be filled locally at a welding supply retailer; federal regulations prohibit the shipping of full gas tanks.
