    HPA Tank Leaking Air

    Yawn... been a while since I've been here. Hope you're all doing well in this economy.

    I have a problem with my HPA tank. It's leaking where the fiberwrap meets the valve body. I was filling it and didnt realize it was leaking until I reached ~3k. i nearly soiled myself thinking it would explode, but it eventually aired out and tank is now empty.

    Is this an easy fix?

    If yes, how do I repair it? Or does it need to be sent in?

    Thanks.

    FOR SAFETY SAKE, HAVE IT RE-HYDROED AND EXPLAIN WHERE IT IS LEAKING FIRST for that persons safety.......better to be safe than sorry.......

      If it's between the regulator and the tank, it should just be the o-ring. They normally replace that after it passes hydro.

      If it's actually coming out of the tank body, it's trash and not to be trusted.
