What is shipping to zip code 34990? How old are they? In hydro or out? 200 or 300 bar DIN valves? What neck size is the valve threaded with (see exerpt from dive gear express, below)? Thanks, Odo.
So how do you figure out what you have? Assuming your cylinder was manufactured in the last 45 years or so, look at the SCUBA Tank neck for the DOT stamp. If it reads DOT-3AL or DOT-3AA it has a 3/4 NPS threaded neck opening. (3AL means aluminum, 3AA means steel.) If it reads DOT-Xxxxx-3442 it's a steel cylinder, also with 3/4 NPS threaded opening. If it reads DOT-Xxxxx-3500 or DOT-Xxxxx-4350, it's a steel or composite cylinder with a 7/8 UNF threaded opening. (The Xxxxx is a manufacturer specific four or five digit exemption number that starts with the letters E or SP.) Another test, if the valve is out of the cylinder, is that a U.S. quarter coin will fit through the 3/4 NPS cylinder neck opening but will not fit through the 7/8 UNF opening. By the way, if it's not a SCUBA tank, all bets are off; it will probably have some other neck opening threading which is incompatible with SCUBA valves.

I really don't want to deal with shipping them monsters, I am hoping to sell local. They are XS scuba tanks 3442 steels, 3/4 dive rite manifold, Born on hydro 07 current hydro Feb 2013. Not sure of the brand of the tank bands.
