Why are Faber Steel Cylinders the best?
Faber’s Cylinders are appreciated worldwide by scuba divers. To give you the lightest steel cylinders with an ideal buoyancy, Faber scuba diving cylinders are manufactured using high quality steel plates. If you are already using steel cylinders when diving you don't need to be convinced about the advantages. Beside the buoyancy attractions, it occupies a far lower volume for the same water capacity allowing you to enjoy greater space and freedom, free from any worries of developing any premature defects such as sustained load cracking (SLC) found in some aluminium alloy cylinders such as those from alloys AA6351, AA6082, which could limit the life of your cylinder.
