How much does a full 10-pound co2 cylinder weigh?

[Jeremy S]

I was wondering if you know how much a full 10-pound co2 cylinder weighs. I am not sure what type of metal it is made out of but it’s for sure not aluminum. Thanks.

Wish I could guess at the weight....
I have that size, but it's a pain to get to. I do know it's heavy.
If you don't get another reply I can find out after New Years.

Just as a wild guess, I'd say that a full steel tank weights about 25 pounds or so...maybe a little more? Aluminum tanks will weigh less, of course.

I just put mine on a bathroom scale and it is 30# on the button. I just filled the tank a few weeks ago so that has to be accurate. That means 20# for my old steel tank and 10# for the CO2 in it.
