Loading Stand Cylinder Holders
We have developed the following Cylinder Holders for use with our Tower Loading Stands.
Others are in development and will be posted here when available.
The cylinder holder's purpose is to provide a stable platform for loading. We capture the cylinder by its outside and its center post diameter. Then, if there is a ratchet or other feature, we provide relief for that feature.
We define the cylinder holders by their
- Outside diameter
- Middle Diameter
- Post Diameter
Here are the present cylinder holders:

The relief diameter is used to clear the nipples, half cock and ratchet mechanisms.
We cut holders deeper from the post diameter to the relief diameter a bit deeper to clear all this debree.
Also, we have the CNC equipment in house to manufacture new and make changes to any of these parts.
