What kind of tank is pressurized to 4500 psi?

My SCBA tank. Fire fighters use them for breathing.

SCBA tanks are up near 3k, our pepperball guns at work run around there.

Not 4500, but I can see people getting up there for some hot pellet guns.

SCBA stands for self-contained breathing apparatus and is typically used by firefighters or hazmat unit. SCUBA stands for self-contained underwater breathing apparatus and is very similar but it is used underwater.

SCBA tanks hold up to 4500psi. SCUBA tanks up to 3000psi.

Wow. People get nervous handling airbags. Strapping a 4500psi tank on your back takes it to a whole nuther level.
