Gas Cylinder Storage

Description

Proper storage of gas cylinders is critical for safety and regulatory compliance.

Secure racks and cages are designed to safely hold compressed gas cylinders, preventing tipping, accidental damage, and unauthorized access. These storage solutions ensure organized handling, minimize the risk of leaks or accidents, and support safe operations in laboratories, industrial sites, and workshops.

Materials for Gas Cylinder Racks and Cages:

1. Mild Steel / Carbon Steel

   • Most common material

   • Strong and durable

   • Often powder-coated or painted to prevent rust

2. Stainless Steel

   • Used in corrosive environments or outdoors

   • Resistant to rust and chemicals

   • More expensive than mild steel

3. Aluminum

   • Lightweight and corrosion-resistant

   • Used where mobility or frequent handling is required

   • Not as strong as steel for heavy cylinders

4. Galvanized Steel

   • Steel coated with zinc to prevent corrosion

   • Ideal for outdoor storage or humid environments

5. Wire Mesh / Expanded Metal Panels (for cages)

   • Used for securing cylinders in cages

   • Allows visibility and ventilation

   • Usually steel or stainless steel
