I just got a nitrogen tank off my friend (fiber rapped), but it needs to be checked or something because the date on it is over 3 years or something. Does anyone know how much this costs? Its a 68/3000 tank.

thank you, i appreciate it. also, now that i think about it..

where do i get it checked out at, and often does it need to be checked out? do they change the date on the fiber every time? thanks a lot

A fire station or a welding place should be able to do it. If it's fiber wrapped I believe it's every 3 years but I mite be wrong, they'll tell you when you go.

ah i see.. so i can just walk up in my fire station.... hmm... how do fields know when its been checked since i dont think they can "un-wrap" the tank to change the date.. maybe a tag or something around the neck of it?

Don't plan on having it done at the fire house!!

Hydro testing is usually around $35 non-refundable.
And its almost always sent out for testing. If it fails,
they cut the tank in half.
