Luxfer metallurgists, among the most recognized experts in the industry, developed this corrosion-resistant blend specifically to provide excellent performance in the most demanding high-pressure applications. Compared to conventional versions of 6061 alloy, Luxfer’s L6X has been optimized to improve durability, fracture toughness and resistance to tearing and cracking, even under high-pressure loads over long periods. Because of the unique performance characteristics of L6X alloy, Luxfer has consistently passed all extensive, rigorous testing performed by major global gas companies and met or exceeded requirements set by every major cylinder regulatory authority in the world. Widely used in home oxygen therapy, emergency medical services and medical institutional applications in more than 50 countries, the more than 50 million cylinders Luxfer has manufactured from L6X alloy have an outstanding record for safe, dependable performance.
A wide range of sizes, capacities and surface finishes, including impact-resistant powder coatings that both protect and beautify, are available.
Luxfer offers a broad range of aluminum cylinders for containment of CO2 (carbon dioxide) and related gas blends, including the C050, the world’s largest-capacity CO2 cylinder (50 cu.ft 23kg).
Tens of thousands of Luxfer sampling cylinders are currently in use throughout the world in various industries, including petrochemical refineries and well sites, analytic laboratories, alternative fuel technologies, and manufacturing.
The G-Stor H2 advantage is our lightweight, impermeable Type 3 cylinder technology, coupled with the high-precision gas-flow control provided by Luxfer’s proprietary high-pressure hydrogen valve. The result is a certified, cost-effective hydrogen-storage solution that is ideal for private and fleet automobiles, transit buses, fuel-cell forklifts, stationary storage and bulk-hauling applications. G-Stor H2 in action around the world Numerous hydrogen-storage systems fitted with G-Stor H2 cylinders and G-Flo™ H2 valves are operating around the globe. We provided cylinders for Citaro fuel-cell transit buses operating throughout Europe as part of the Clean Urban Transport for Europe (CUTE) project. Our cylinders were also used on hydrogen-powered commuter buses during the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver and the 2012 Summer Olympics in London.
LCX composites are now the most widely used SCBA and life-support cylinders in North America. Available in a wide range of sizes, LCX cylinders are up to 70% lighter than steel cylinders and up to 30% lighter than all-aluminum cylinders with the same gas capacity. All carbon-wrapped models have a five-year requalification cycle. LCX cylinders are approved to applicable Department of Transportation (DOT) and Transport Canada (TC) standards and are designed and manufactured to meet all NFPA, NIOSH and OEM requirements.
