Hi and good morning.
I am a newbie here. I need a nitrogen 6000 psi tank and I am living in Aklan. I have tried to ask around the welding shops here but to no avail. Would be grateful if someone can point me a shop or company that rents out these tanks. Oh, I would like to know the cost too.

I suppose bro you will be using this Nitrogen to inflate your tires or for whatever use.
You won't find this sa mga welding shops but perhaps sa mga tire shops or from the gas or oxygen/acetylene suppliers, I just don't know if you have one there in Aklan. 🙂 :rolleyes:

They say tires run cooler and better w/ nitrogen. I had all my tires in nitro and frankly I don't or can't feel the difference except for the cost of charging them.:confused::dunno: Going back to the topic, if there isn't a sufficient market in your area for dealers to carry them then your next best option is to go to the nearest province that has them.

Well bro bugel, its like this, using nitrogen in your tires improves gas mileage and smoother rides, this gas is more stable than using ordinary air/oxygen for your tires. It also help maintain tire pressure during long drives. It makes tires specially the heavy loaders like dump trucks, 6 wheelers to 18 wheelers or pay loaders easier to maneuver, drive and operate. If you will notice also with your tires when you deflate it, your finger gets wet, its because ordinary air/oxygen has water content and it gets trap there inside your tires and this water or moisture react with your rim that causes rusting or oxidation of metals as with the nitrogen, it has none or it is dry.

Well there have been pros and cons of this usage but it has more advantage.

here are two links of its research where you can get some ideas or result :

Thank you for all your replies. I will look up at some companies that sell acetylene tanks.
