Re: exploding plastic storage tanks

After observing a crack in one of our plastic tanks in our shop last year, 1712 straight up refuses to use them at this point. We'd much rather sacrifice the weight and continue to use Clippard's aluminum tanks. It's simply not worth the risk, imo. I'd hope FIRST's safety rules would follow suit, and either institute a ban on these tanks or a safety procedure to ensure that exploding tanks cannot cause injury.
