2 High Pressure Steel 120's South Florida

[jar546]

2 Asahi HP 3442 steel 120's DIN with yoke inserts, original hydro last year, approximately 4 years left on original hydro. Will come with a brand new VIP O2 Cleaned (if you get partial pressure blending) the day you pay and pick up. Boynton Beach area. Nitrox stickers look as new as the tanks. Pick up only.

$500 no negotiating. This is a sweet deal. PM me, first come first serve.

Does that mean they're sold?

 

[jar546]

Nope, not sold. Still waiting for a new owner or I am going to keep them since for 3 tank dive days. I have 4 but are selling 2 of them.

I want. Too bad shipping to MN would be so much.

I want. Too bad shipping to MN would be so much.

On a $500 tank setup? Each tank can be shipped for around $35 Fed Ex ground or UPS. That's $70 shipping. Why is that too much? THey only weigh $40 pound empty and dimensionally are not challenging. I can understand sellers would rather someone pick them up then box them and ship them but that said it simply is not that hard or that expensive. You might also check Phoenix Craigslist there is an identical setup (not so new I think two years left on hydro) with a Zeagle Ranger XL BDC thrown in with 60lbs wings for $500. He will ship too.

Per request, here are some pics.





Valves have the insert for yoke to din, din to yoke. They are a little over a year old. If you buy them locally, they will come with a 36% nitrox fill, VIP with O2 clean sticker placed on by a PSI certified inspector. Very little use and I am now wondering why I am even selling them as I have another set of 2 so 4 is not that bad.

As far as buoyancy characteristics, they are negatively buoyant when empty and are suppose to be slightly heavier than my Worthingtons. I use to dive heavy thermals with a drysuit and no more than 16# in fresh water. I dive these tanks in a 3.5 mil full suit in salt water with NO weight. Zero weight. The tanks are enough for me. I weigh 200#

Here are the specs on these tanks. I had to do some investigating:

Catalina Cylinders imports these tanks from Japan. They are spun steel tanks which are slightly heavier on the bottom, the wall thickness is about the same as others.

Catalina Cylinders does the initial hyrdo here in the US

They are 3442 cylinders and are being sold the past few years (about 5) after a brief hiatus.

The specs are as follows

Diameter and Height:
80 7.29" 20.8"
100 7.29" 25.2"
120 7.29" 28.9"

Weight Empty:
80 30.9 #
100 36.4 #
120 41.5 #

Buoyancy Full and Empty in pounds: (no air/empty, not 500psi)
F E
80 -11.5 -6.1
100 -12.1 -5-2
120 -12.8 -4.6


I hope that this helps anyone who is looking for this elusive information. Compare to Worthingtons if you want.

OK, not that it matters but Catalina is now saying that ASAHI hydros them in Japan and they are certified there. Catalina is a first in line from the factory importer.

Always the hardest sell

Always the hardest sell

Not always. I am trying to talk my husband into these. I just bought a set of HP 80's then had to pay extra for the O2 cleaning. We will be in WPB in 2 weeks.

Does anyone have an opinion of the safety of using these tanks with the available yoke connection rather than the DIN?
