Standard Tank Hydrostatic Testing
Keep your pressure cylinder certified, safe, and ready for use with professional hydrostatic testing from SCDiving.
This service is available for standard scuba-sized cylinders up to 120 cubic feet, including:
- Scuba tanks
- Paintball cylinders
- SCBA cylinders
- Carbon-fiber composite cylinders
- Aluminum cylinders
- Steel cylinders
Hydrostatic testing verifies that a cylinder can safely contain its rated pressure and helps identify structural issues before they become serious safety concerns. Most DOT-regulated cylinders require periodic hydrostatic testing, commonly every five years, although testing requirements may vary depending on the cylinder type, markings, and special permit.
This Service Includes:
- Hydrostatic pressure testing
- Visual cylinder inspection
- Updated certification marking for cylinders that pass testing
- Optional compressed-air fill when requested at drop-off
Cylinders must have a valid DOT specification or special-permit marking to qualify for testing.
Please allow up to two weeks for service, depending on current demand.
