Cooking with Gas

New 9kg Stainless Steel Gas Bottles


Posted 31 October 2005

Strong demand from prestige boating and yachting manufacturers has prompted the production and release of new stainless steel nine kilogram LPG gas bottles.

Melbourne-based fabricator and ASSDA member, Stainless Tanks and Pressure Vessels (STPV) produce grade 316L stainless steel gas bottles that offer significant resistance to corrosion, making the product ideal for cooking in marine and boating applications.

The new gas bottles will also complement the increased production of barbecues now manufactured in stainless steel and are supplied with standard gas fittings.

The refillable gas bottles have a ten year inspection life in line with industry codes and comply with gas liquids code under AS 2470.

STPV principal Chris Miller said he commenced manufacturing the gas bottles after enquiries from a number of prestige boating and yachting manufacturers in search of a superior, corrosion resistant supply tank, which can readily be refilled.

“We have since commenced supplying several barbecue manufacturers who produce a range of superior products in stainless.”

The stainless steel bottles are available from Southern Stainless, Gold Coast and Marine Barbecues, Newcastle. Alternatively, contact Stainless Tanks and Pressure Vessels for outlets.

Stainless Tanks and Pressure Vessels manufactures a wide range of standard and to order stainless steel tankage equipment for the fire protection, process industries and numerous industrial applications.
