Closed PST HP100

[wasabean]

Hello, I'm wondering if anyone is selling a PST branded HP100 galvanized steel tank. I'm in Los Angeles and will be in the Monterey, CA are next week (6/4/2023). if out of state, I'm willing to pay for the shipping cost if its reasonable. Thanks!

3/4 or 7/8 neck?

hmm...good question. I'm actually not sure. I picked one up yesterday and I already took it to my LDS for a viz and fill. I'm planning on doubling it so I'll have to ask them tomorrow when I pick it up.

3/4 or 7/8 neck?

I'm reading on here that all PST HP100 are 7/8 necks.

Older PST HP100 Thread Size

Ok folks - I just picked up some older PST HP 100's, rated to 3500psi service pressure, and I was going to drop them off at the LDS w/ a manifold (Thermo 3/4) I had and I ran across a post that got me thinking my manifold wouldn't have the right thread size..... The tanks original hydro is...

some are pedantic enough as to insist the 3/4 NPS neck 3442 PSI PST E7-100s aren't true HP100s. but most will use HP100 to refer to the 3442 PSI tanks also, including the similar models from Faber/Worthington and even the undesirable spun Asahi/Heiser tanks

There are 3/4" necks, but there are a lot more 7/8" necks. New 7/8's manifolds are very expensive & old ones don't work with new bands. Do some research. Not all lds's know where to get stuff for older tanks.

I have a PST HP100 tank with the 7/8" thread for sale in LA. Up to date hydro but needs Viz. $240.

I'm in Rancho Palos Verdes.

Are you planning to turn these into doubles? Also I assume you know these are DIN-only tanks.
