Co2 Tank Questions

[fulltimer]

I was given (free!) a Co2 bottle that I think is a 20 pounder. All it has is the safety blow off valve and the valve to open the bottle. No gauges or handle. The tank/bottle measures 25" around and 23" to the top of the bottle.

I figure a coiled hose will do fine here in Florida because we don't get the nasty cold. I need a handle/guard and gauges. For right now it will be used to fill tires only. What gauges should I get? Where should I get them?

Simple, cheap, effective. No gauges to damage and works fine. I have one on my original Co2 system and never had a problem using it to air up multiple sets of tires.

Oh and get the higher pressure model if you go this route.

you can use standard co2 gauge, any welding supply store sells them or you can buy them on ebay or you can buy them where you fill the tank. A standard coiled hose at Home Depot will be fine. as far as the handle take a look at the link below. they also sell what you need but the price is high.
