I appreciate the concern on blowing my face off ,but if a regular 3.5oz bulk co2 tank can hold 1200psi,the TAU tank should be able to hold more pressure since it's built alot stronger.I see others say so,so i'm trying to confirm this before i try anything.I don't have a death wish.I've worked on mining trucks and been in the shop when a six foot tall truck tire blewup because some idiot over pressurized it .SCAREY!!! .So if ETA could maybe confirm where he got his info on the pressure rating,we both would know we have tanks that can handle the pressure .Walter
Did you not say you have a couple tanks?
What is the pressure rating on them?
If they are not marked I would not use them.
3.5oz CO2 tanks are marked 1800psi pressure. I use mine that way with a regulator to feed my CO2 pistols in the winter/fall.

Ya,thats just it,i see no pressure rating on my bottles.I would like to ask ETA where he got his info on the pressure rating.It would be nice not having to buy anymore bottles if i can use what i already have,but not until i'm 110% sure i can use them.Walter

Stamp on the bottle:
TAU/BRNO
ABNER CZ 02/02
U 355 TARA 0.633KG
0.150 KG CO2
0.2 L 250 BAR
250 BAR = 3626 psi
From some basic calculations with Todd's wall thickness data, the diameter of the cylinders and assuming the use of crappy 1010 CR steel construction.
Airsoure CYLINDER WALL is calculated to have the burst strength of about 8000psi, the Tau, 6000psi and the Powerlet, 5000psi.
Don't forget to add safety factors. Connection and fastening methods will also be a factor. Use the info at your own risk.
It scared the s&*t out of everyone in the shop!It's also a good thing that they place the tire in a safety cage before inflating,a guy died instantly about a year before that.Costing the mine a $500,000.00 fine and $2,000,000 settlement to his widow.All because they did'nt want to spend the $20,000 on a safety cage. ,Walter

.So i should be more than safe to put 2000psi into the TAU tank.Walter
