OVERVIEW

Ergonomic Gas Cylinder Cart with Rear Support

Upgrade your shop safety and efficiency with the Single Cylinder Cart with Solid Tires and 3rd Wheel (W-8S-3). Moving heavy gas cylinders can be a hazardous task if not done correctly; this cart is designed to make that process as safe and effortless as possible. The defining feature of this model is the inclusion of a rear support wheel. When the cart is tilted back into the transport position, this third wheel engages with the ground, taking the load off your arms and back. This "tripod" effect allows you to pause and rest the load without having to set the cylinder fully upright, reducing fatigue and the risk of injury.

This cart is specifically designed to hold one medium or large cylinder, making it perfect for welders moving shielding gas bottles or oxy-fuel tanks. The frame is welded from durable steel and finished with a protective coating to resist rust and corrosion. A sturdy safety chain is included to strap the tank securely against the curved frame, ensuring it stays put even over bumps or uneven thresholds.

Reliable and Tough

Forget about flat tires slowing down your production. The W-8S-3 comes equipped with solid rubber tires that roll smoothly over concrete, dirt, and shop floors without the risk of deflation. Whether you are moving oxygen, acetylene, nitrogen, or helium, this cart provides a stable and reliable platform. The rear caster swivels, offering superior steering control compared to rigid 2-wheel dollies. It is an indispensable tool for any professional welder, fabricator, or facility manager looking to improve workplace ergonomics.

Benefits

  • Reduced Strain: Rear wheel carries the weight, not you.
  • Zero Maintenance: Solid tires never go flat.
  • Secure Transport: Integrated chain keeps cylinders locked in.
  • Versatile Fit: Accommodates most standard industrial tank sizes.

FAQ

The W-8S-3 is designed to hold one medium or large high-pressure cylinder, such as standard K, T, or S size tanks (e.g., 244cf Oxygen or 300cf Argon).

The 3rd wheel, or rear caster, supports the weight of the cylinder when the cart is tilted back. This relieves the operator from bearing the load, improving ergonomics and safety.

This cart features solid rubber tires, which are puncture-proof and require no maintenance, making them ideal for shop environments with sharp debris.

Yes, the cart includes a safety chain to securely strap the cylinder to the frame during transport.

Yes, as long as the acetylene cylinder falls within the medium to large size range (e.g., #4 or #5 acetylene), it can be transported on this cart.

The rear 3rd wheel is typically a swivel caster, which aids in steering and maneuvering the cart when it is in the tilted/transport position.

The cart is constructed from heavy-duty steel with a durable finish to withstand industrial use.

These carts often ship partially assembled; you may need to attach the wheels and the rear caster assembly upon receipt.
