Doc Intrepid:uh, what are you talking about?
There are Luxfer and Catalina 80s (3000 psi), there are Luxfer Neutral 80s (3300 psi - thicker walls), there are short STEEL 80s, ...but an aluminum 80 requires a certain interior volume if it's to hold (close to) 80 cu ft and remain 7.25" in external diameter.
Are you referring to AL 63s? (which are the same diameter as AL 80s but shorter?)
RIOceanographer:Luxfer also makes an 8 inch diameter AL 80 that is only 22.9 inches long. They call it the S808. The specs are listed on Luxfer's site:
