Review on πŸ”΅ Vixen Air 5 Gallon (20 Liter) Aluminum Air Tank - 9 Ports for Suspension, Train, and Horn – 200 PSI VXT5200AP by Ryan Gilliam

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Terrible welds. It didn't seem safe to me.

I have bought many parts from Vixen Air and usually the quality is surprisingly good. However, this tank is not the case. I ordered it in raw aluminum so wasn't expecting it to shine but it looked like it had been outside for 6 months. And then there were the welds. Calling them questionable would be too good a description, they were frankly intimidating. Tons of porosity and a distinct lack of sweat penetration. And someone was trying to patch one up by grinding down a ton of base material and trying to scrape more of the weld over it. I sent it back and received one from Airlift. Almost the same price but MUCH better.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Really don't like it, everything is fine
