Tips for Choosing Cylinder Storage
- Keep cylinders upright and chainedSecure every cylinder with the cart chain or in a cage, and keep valve caps on when cylinders are moved or stored.
- Match the cart to the cylinderCheck cylinder diameter, height and weight. Large cylinders and rough ground call for the heavy-duty carts with pneumatic wheels.
- Separate oxygen and fuel gasesStore and move oxygen apart from fuel gases as your fire code requires. A firewalled cart keeps a working pair together with a barrier between them.
- Store propane outdoorsUse a ventilated cage outside the building, away from doors, drains and ignition sources, and anchor it to the ground.
- Avoid lifting by handA lift cart raises cylinders onto welding machines and carts without lifting, which cuts strain injuries.
- Lock and label the storage areaKeep cages locked, display hazard signage and separate full cylinders from empties so they are easy to rotate.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between single and double cylinder carts?
Single cylinder carts carry one cylinder and are compact for tight spaces. Double cylinder carts carry two, usually an oxygen and fuel gas pair for welding and cutting, and several models include a tool tray.
What is a firewalled cylinder cart?
It is a two-cylinder cart with a fire-rated wall between the cylinders, so an oxygen and fuel gas pair can travel together on one cart with a barrier between them.
Which wheels should I choose?
Cushion and solid rubber wheels roll smoothly on concrete floors. Pneumatic wheels absorb shocks and handle gravel, yards and rough surfaces better.
How many cylinders do the storage cages hold?
The GS-10 holds ten 9 in diameter cylinders and the GS-20 holds twenty. The GS-6 and GS-12 propane cages are sized for propane cylinders. Each product page lists dimensions.
Can the cages be locked and anchored?
Yes. Every cage has a padlock hasp on the door and pre-drilled legs for anchoring to the floor or pad.
