MPN: 1420-0022
Get safer, lighter, and easy-to-use propane storage with this 22lb Viking Cylinders fiberglass composite LPG tank — ideal for boating, outdoor cooking, grills, RVs, and marine installations. Unlike traditional steel propane tanks, this composite cylinder features a fiberglass-encased internal bladder, allowing you to see propane level at a glance and drastically reducing weight for easier handling.
Designed with safety and durability in mind, this cylinder is DOT approved for the USA and TC approved for Canada, and includes a Type 1 OPD valve for safe filling and operation. The ergonomic collar and built-in handle make transport and positioning simple, while the rugged composite construction resists corrosion — perfect for saltwater and humid environments.

Corrosion Proof: Unlike steel tanks, these will never rust, making them the ideal choice for marine environments, coastal areas, or long-term outdoor storage.
-
Safety Certified: Fully DOT and TC approved and equipped with a standard Type 1 (QCC) OPD valve, making it compatible with most grills, heaters, and RV regulators.
