For many, Faber is their go-to brand for scuba cylinders. Their esteemed reputation is due to the fact that all their tanks are made from high-grade steel. Their steel in their tanks is the lightest on the market and made with such precision the weight is uniformly distributed.
The HP100 is one of their most popular products, great in all styles of diving
