cylinders

14 cubic foot 45 cubic foot and 130 cubic foot capacity cylinders

G-TEC natural gas cylinders have many advantages compared to the cylinder you use today -

No 15 psi limit - set your torch to draw natural gas at any psi
No icing problems at high withdrawal rates
Standard CGA 510 valve lets you use the regulator you already own
G-TEC cylinders can be used and transported in any position, even lying down
Refill your cylinders whenever supplies run low
Anyone can use a Refueler to fill G-TEC cylinders - no special license or certificate is required

Make your workplace safer -

G-TEC cylinders are safer than acetylene or LPG cylinders - safer than whatever cylinder you

use today. During testing full G-TEC cylinders were shot with bullets near an open flame but did not catch fire or explode. Full cylinders were detonated with half sticks of dynamite but did not rupture

or explode. G-TEC cylinders reduce the risk of accidents from carelessness or ignorance

and make your workplace safer.

G-TEC manufactures Adsorbed Natural Gas cylinders in three sizes -

NG-14 cylinders hold 14 cubic feet of natural gas and are perfect for light duty jobs
NG-45 cylinders hold 45 cubic feet of natural gas and are the right choice for moderate daily use.
NG-130 cylinders hold 130 cubic feet of natural gas and will supply your cutting torch all day
