Thread: MIG Bottle Pressure

We use every bit up in our shop, and have a spare tank on hand......just in case. The 350-400 tank pressure is still a fair amount ,we set our reg's line pressure at 20 psi ,so unless your using a very small tank, your ok.

Brian,
That's what I was thinking, but thanks for the reply. I'm using a #3 tank, 80cuft volume which is nominal 8"ODx5'tall or so...

Roger - with mine, I run it until there is no more!!! I just replaced the non adjustable regulator with an adjustable ball flow regulator to see if I can reduce my usage (plus the gauge had gone to heaven as well) to something less then 20cf/h
