I have a 3000 psi Flatline with an 47ci steel tank on it. I want to put a 68ci tank on the reg (I'm a back player) and I need to know what 68ci 3000psi tanks are compatable with the Flatline's threads.

Thanks for the help.

All tanks now use standard threads.

I wouldn't reccomend trying to change the bottles yourself, though, they need to be screwed in to a rather precise level of torque to make sure the system is safe.

So a Crossfire 68ci steel stub tank will fit on a '99 Flatline reg? (just making sure).

I'll deffinetly get an airsmith to change it I just wanted to find out if I needed to get a new tank.

Yep.

Some of the older tanks used to use different threads, it was either ACI or NitroDuck if I remember correctly, but by now they are all standardized.

When in doubt, you could always consult your airsmith.
