what do these crown markings tell me? It looks like a HP steel but not sure the size. Also, is there a "sticky" that explains crown markings? I couldn't find it.

TC-SU 4957-230BAR
DOT-SP141 57-3442 TP 5250 REE 94 X7120 4689 34

Thanks!

Working PSI is 3442 so you are correct...it is a HP steel. Not sure of the size though?

I saved these when I found them in an older SB thread:

TC-SU4957 230BAR = Transport Canada approval, 230 BAR Service Pressure
DOT-SP14157 3442 = DOT Exemption, 3442 PSI Service Pressure

TP 5250 = Testing Pressure
REE 94 = Elastic Expansion stamped on tank to make Hydro tech's life easier

X7120 = Cylinder Type (This is a Worthington X7-120, which is a 7.25" high pressure 120CF cylinder)
468934 = Serial Number

Should have been a hydro date on there as well in format mm/yy, and the manufacturer's ID number, which for Worthington should be M8004.
