Fiberglass Propane Tanks - Emergency Recall

[Wandering Sagebrush]

It looks like fiberglass propane tanks from Lite Cylinder can no longer be used. I don't know if anyone in WTW has them, but heads up...

Thanks for the heads up on these. I was looking into getting a couple of these a few months back.

There have been some threads on AAV and Expi about this. Reading some of the gov't report it sounds to me more like a retaliatory ruling than an outright public danger. I didn't get the sense that the actual failings are any more common, percentage-wise, than with a steel tank. It's that Lite appears to have tried to cover up their short-comings.

I'm glad I went with http://www.ragascousa.com/ propane tank. Some retailers will call it a 20lb tank although it is only a 17lb / 5gal tank.
Cheers
