Scuba Schools Group - Where The Adventure Begins!
Tanks: Steel

Manufactured in North America by Worthington Cylinders. Worthington is new to manufacturing SCUBA cylinders, yet they are the world's largest supplier of industrial steel cylinders.

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.

Nitrox Ready
Cleaned and sealed at the factory. Free of hydrocarbons to a level of 40 mg per square meter, these tanks come ready for pre-blended Nitrox up to 40% FO2

Over the summer, XS Scuba has worked closely with the Worthington engineers to upgrade the exterior to the highly demanded hot-dip galvanized process. This preferred finish is now utilized on all Worthington steel cylinders offered by XS Scuba.
