If you do happen to decide on one of the Jet Tech tanks, make SURE you tell Gary it needs to be gasoline proofed.

Ocean Spray juice bottle measured and cap and fittings from psp http://www.pspmfg.com/LargeJuiceBott...elTankCap.html


For the psp cap I prefer my own larger bulkhead nipple fitting found at McMasters.

Try B&B Specialties. The tanks are full nalagene with a nice screw on/off cap. They supply a couple of fittings and a clunk depending on your application, gas or smoke.

Probably got dismissed because so many prefer the clear plastic, water bottle type tanks with the fancy CNC metal caps these days. I've used a lot of Nalgene bottle tanks over the years and loved them. More recently, I've used some of the clear tanks just to be "trendy" and because they are easy to set up for 3 lines. I have seen the Nalgene bottles get brittle with age.

for the 170s and larger the 64 oz is a jewel, its been a few years away from these tanks but used to get them all the time from Airwild Hobbies in Tustin right off the shelf
thanks again for the hook up

That may have been after Tony sold to,,, I'm talking about late 80's. The other Gyro Hobby shop Tony had, had vandal issues and then a fire took it out.
