A member of the Luxfer Group of companies, Luxfer Gas Cylinders serves customers in major gas markets, including medical, life support, beverage, fire, scuba and specialty gases. Luxfer has grown to be a world leader in product quality and in product safety, with innovative programs for the markets it serves. With nearly 40 million cylinders already in service in more than 50 countries, Luxfer Gas Cylinders is truly setting the standard worldwide.
For its all-metal cylinders, Luxfer employs a hydraulic ram to press and shape a solid aluminum billet into a hollow shell, the open top of which is then closed and threaded. The result is a seamless, lightweight aluminum cylinder with a consistent wall thickness and naturally non-corrosive oxide finish that makes it ideal for the high-pressure storage of gases.
