Diving bottle raw Steel 12 Liter long 232 bar 171 mm Concave

12 liter bottle 171 mm concave without valve

A 12 liter bottle is one of the most widespread and common sizes in Denmark. The 12 liters refers to the "amount of milk that could be in the diving bottle if it was a milk boy :)" and the 171 mm is how wide the bottle is in diameter. 

Virtually all bottles in 12 liters and 171 mm are also approved to be filled with 232 bar, which in this case gives 2784 liters of free air. This diving bottle is what you would normally call long compared to a 12 liter 203mm bottle, and although both bottles contain the same amount of free air, there may be a slight difference in who benefits most from this size.

The bottle is delivered raw so you can match it with the valves you want.

Many people buy bottle nets and carrying handles because it gives the bottle extra protection against scratches (nets) and handles because it makes the bottle much easier to carry around when you have to fill it or transport it around the dive site.
