Poly - Blow Molded (See assman tanks)

Polypropylene Vessels. These vessels can be either pressure vessels designed to operate safely at a specific pressures and temperatures, or non-pressure vessels designed for use in gravity controlled and low-pressure systems. These vessels are lighter than those made from other materials. Their smooth inner walls resist the formation of deposits. Though they do not have the strength of metal vessels, they have enough tensile and burst strength to withstand operating pressures encountered in most service conditions. They can withstand external shocks that could cause failure in more brittle materials. They are resistant to water, nearly all acids, alkalis, salt solutions, and other corrosive liquids and gases.

Things to Consider When Purchasing This Product:
