Tanks and Regulators
Strike Models offers new, lightweight tanks and regulators to help you make the most of your allotted weight and space in your ship. No more scraping paint off to save another ounce or two, and the shorter length of the regulators opens up more options for bottle placement.
We have a fixed and variable regulator, shown at left.
The fixed regulator is at 140 psi, weighs 3.3 ounces, and is 2.5 inches long. The end of the regulator extends 2 inches past the end of the bottle top. An on/off valve is required, as it does not have a pin depressor. $60.
The variable regulator can be adjusted between 0 and 150 psi, weighs 4.25 ounces, and is 3.25 inches long. The end of the regulator extends 2.6 inches past the end of the bottle. It has a pin depressor and can be used by either type of CO2 bottle. $65.
Both the 3.5 and 7 ounce CO2 tanks are 2.0 inches in diameter, so they never require hydro-static testing beyond their initial factory test. The larger aluminum tanks require testing every 5 years and are considered to have an unlimited useful life (they have a 3AL stamped in the top). Steel paintball tanks (stamped with 3HT) require testing every 3 years and have a 24 year life before needing to be retired. If you have a tank that requires hydro testing, contact us by email and we can get you in contact with places that specialize in that service.
We also now carry 3000 psi burst disks for those of you who’ve left your full, black tanks in the sun. The 3k psi burst disks are standard on all of our tanks.
All of our tanks now come with stickers stating the full and empty weight of the tanks as well as their capacity. We recommend using a small digital scale to weight the tanks immediately after filling to make sure that the tank has not been overfilled. Weighing the tank should be done without any regulators or hoses hooked up.
