The way I understand how to properly pressure test a vessel is they use liquid, that way there is not much compressive pressure 0f course they over factor the tank by what ever metric they use.
As an aside has anyone seen an excavator or truck tire rupture in one of those steel cages?

Something my Dad taught me a long time ago was to always drain an air compressor when you finish using it. It keeps the tank from rusting on the inside and is a general safety precaution. I don't want a pressurized vessel in my shop when I'm not there for sure!
