I have never seen someone use teflon tape so wrong before. Also most fire extinguishers rust, they are steel so putting cleaner in them will rust the hell out of the inside.
1:38 - That mist coming out is a sign that the air has a high amount of humidity which can corrode your air tank's interior wall over a long period of time.
Thats not mist. Its powder residue from the agent that was left in the extinguisher. ABE extinguishers use dry chemical agent called sodium bicarbonate (SBC). He didnt clean the cylinder first. And yes SBC agent is corrosive.
@@UZNaus That also explains why fire extinguishers containing SBC are filled with N² as a propellant. And I was unaware that SBC is also corrosive. Thanks for the info! ;-) I recently got hold of an expired fire extinguisher which was built to contain SBC. The first thing I noticed was the refill valve stem that is an exact build of a car's wheel valve stem. Plus, it has a small pressure gauge by default. That makes it alot easier to convert it into a mobile air pressure tank. It can be re-pressurized at any highway station, and via bicycle pump, too. I also thoroughly washed off any remaining SBC residue from the extinguisher's interior to avoid any agent being blasted anywhere. For security reasons I have spraypainted my air tank's entire body with grey colour so that it won't be mistakenly taken and used in case of a real emergency as it's almost unlikely to be instinctively caught by one's eye.
@@Bandicoot803 be careful as the SBC extinguishers are also made of steel so rust will become a problem. Try using a 3% foam extinguisher body. They will be made of stainless as they are designed to hold water.
@@UZNaus Yup! Also got a solution for that one, too: Mix a small portion of primer with paint thinner, pour it in, jostle, shake and twirl the tank to cover the entire inner surface and drain the remaining paint by placing the tank upside down in a container. And let the new paint coat dry for at least a day. That should seal the deal.
I wish I had a list, but I believe the first one is called a MIP adapter, I could be wrong tho. I wouldn't know if it makes a difference which direction it goes with the MIP adapter, and if it's one direction only. I'll have to buy the compression gauge online since they don't sell one at my local store with over 150 psi
You should keep it under 150psi anyway. They can't be reused as fire extinguishers precisely because they can't be certified for the 195psi rating they had before. It's a pressure bomb hazard.
Great build! It looks like you are using some sort of Teflon “string”? What is that exactly? If you don’t mind me asking. The bale handle is very clever! I’m never buying another can of WD40.
Hey look at that, an actually reasonable and useful application for an old extinguisher. Now if only you titled it so it'd be easier to spot amidst the sea of "omg amazing '''hacks'''" that turn it into another damn box.
I have a problem. I need an adapter for my extinguisher for a little project I am doing. But I can find any fittings that screw on at any hardware stores local. I am turning it into a special boiler tank.
If you took yourself and this project seriously, you would realize that folks don't need the brainless-bimbo music. Hearing tools and your spoken tips would be way better.
he will not told or showing anyone what`s the parts using and where`s they are coming from or how to got them so dislike him please to answer for the ppl not just only showing with out anything

Bandicoot803 definitely a good idea 🤯
Dental floss, only use the minty flavor.
GREAT JOB WE CAN REALLY USE THAT. CAN I PLS HAVE A MATERIALS LIST THANK YOU SO MUCH KEIT.H
Hi, what thread is the extinguisher itself?
List of materials I would need to make this please

Eu queria saber o nome da rosca que faz á conexão do exterior
Una pregunta cuánta precion de aire aguanta un extintor grande
Can I refill/use an empty Co2 fire extinguisher tank for soda with food grade Co2?
Maybe seal the inside first, they get rusty.
Hello , i requist.. the stuff for fishing .. thanks.
How much psi that tank can hold at max ?
can i get the material list i have a old fire extinguisher. and i try to make a air tank
Hi, I have a CO2 capsule. Can I change the head and turn it into an O2 capsule?
May I know the material list
Material names and sizes ... Please RESPONSE
Cool
Awesome
Please tell me the names of the parts you used please tell 😭😭😭
Ukuran drat berapa bos
Malzemelerin adlarını öğrenebilir miyim
STOP THE MUSIC MAKES ME SICK
Is that dental floss has putting on the threads
No list to make this? 👎 and i would only feel comfortable filling with air not water since it is steel and can rust the inside
4 words we need material list
It's just common pipe and air fittings, use whatever ones you want, no need for a silly material list when you can make it however you want to.
@@lazyh-online4839 I can't find the nippel you screw down in the fire extinguisher
