Product Description

The SCBA Composite Air Cylinder provides a high-capacity, low-weight source of breathing air for self-contained breathing apparatus. Constructed from an aluminium liner fully over-wrapped with carbon fibre and a protective outer layer, the 6.8-litre cylinder is charged to 300 bar and delivers approximately 40 minutes of working duration under typical breathing rates. The composite build cuts weight substantially against comparable steel cylinders, easing the burden on the wearer during extended tasks and improving mobility in confined and elevated workspaces.

Each cylinder incorporates a robust valve with a pressure gauge port and burst-disc protection, and is manufactured to recognised international standards for composite breathing air vessels. The corrosion-free structure resists the humidity and salt-laden air common across GCC coastal and offshore sites, while the impact-resistant over-wrap protects against knocks in the field. Cylinders are periodically inspected and hydrostatically tested in line with regulatory intervals to assure continued integrity. Filosha Industrial supplies composite cylinders compatible with standard open-circuit SCBA sets, giving operators a dependable, lightweight air source for rescue teams, refinery crews and confined space workers throughout the region.
