Propane Tank with a LEAKY WELD

January 24th, 2012 by joey | Filed under Interesting.

I was in TX visiting my inlaws for christmas and my Father In Law purchased a new propane tank and had it filled with Propane.  Unfortunatly, once the tank was filled, and the hoses removed, the service guy noticed the jet of high pressure propane shooting out the side of the tank.  He said it’s his first time in 27 years that he has seen a tank with a hole in the middle seam.  He said the valves, and the welds around the valves leak occasionaly, but he’d never seen a hole in the middle of the tank before.

 

If you look closely you can see how the weld that is leaking is all buggered up.
