Oxygen Shipping Containers, HM224B

The Americase HM224B Super Box is the most durable, lightweight ATA 300 Category 1 container available for oxygen cylinders and oxygen generators. All Americase Super Boxes pass the ATA 300 Cat 1 requirements as well as the flame and heat penetration requirements set forth in 49 CFR 173.168. The super boxes are built to not only meet but exceed the rigorous requirements of the ATA 300 standards for shipping cases acceptable for air transport.

Americase developed the HM224B/DOT31FP compliant shipping containers so that they can be used over and over again. It's designed to be light weight to save on shipping costs. These aluminum cylinder shipping cases have passed the ATA 280 cycle drop test, which closely simulates common material handling abuse. The all-aluminum exterior is reinforced with more than 1,000 industrial-grade rivets. Ball corners, latches, hinges and handles are made of the highest quality material. All container labels, DG labels and Airline Markings are incorporated on each container. The cylinder valve assembly is protected inside the larger of the Super Boxes by a removable cradle that is securely tethered to the container and can only be used in the correct position, allowing unobstructed access to the bottle in the Side-load Design container.

The HM224B/DOT31FP Shipping cases are available in 10 sizes to accommodate any size cylinder, from a 4.25 cubic foot oxygen cylinder to the 280 cubic foot welding oxygen tank used for construction.
