I believe it is a quarter of a inch thick. It is durable to me. I use it for the garden and prepping.

The Genova 3/4" 100 psi irrigation tubing has a .066" to .68" average wall thickness and from .92" to .96" OD. ID and OD varies as it is not completely circular but it comes out around .80 inches ID.. Some people complain that various tubing doesn't fit the molded fittings you get at Home Depot, but there are tolerances for everything and if it's hard to insert fittings, make sure the tubing is warm (ie, left in the sun) or, if that's impossible, a GENTLE warming with a propane torch will also work (I've used both methods). Generally the Genova tubing has been ok.. and I have used tube fittings from both Amazon AND Home Depot interchangably... yes, some go harder than others, but that's the nature of the beast.. this isn't a space shuttle... if it's too hard to get on by hand, make sure the tubing is as round as you can get it and if it's too cold, warm it up a little... just don't fry it. Hope this helps.. I'm doing a thousand feet of irrigation with 3/4 and 1 inch tubing and it's all good. PS... the 3/4 tubing clamps that sell in the same section are not so good. They barely hang in on the 3/4 tubing after it's stretched over the fittings. I've lost a few, won't buy them again.

I bought 2 of these .... They come with about a 6 foot hose and the tanks are stored away from the table... Unless you have something to cover them or are handy enough to build a box (which is what I did) then you will want to purchase the tank cover. My problem was the cover was 172 dollars and only held 1 tank so I built a box for two tanks for about 50 with material and paint.

Seems to be a medium thickness; hoping this helps you. I love my Waring Commercial Blender!

I agree with Linda's answer. You have to assemble the canister and then hold it under water to get all of the air out so it doesn't float. I don't think you need to plug it directly into the wall vacuum hole though. I have a short length of hose attached to the wall, then the vacuum canister, and then the rest of the hose. This works fine.

I can never go above 2. Living in a RV and limited to 400 SQ ft, 5 would run me out besides using to much gas for no reason.A 25 lb TANK WOULD LAST ME FOR SEVERAL MONTHS as many in this park are using.

Hi!I have just measured the inside diameter of the funnel bottom, which is precisely 5.4 cm. The thickness of the funnel wall bottom is precisely 0.3 cm (=3.0 mm). The outside diameter of the funnel is precisely 6 cm (5.4 cm inside diameter + 2 x 0.3 cm wall thickness). Sincerely,Marc

Without going outside to measure...not tall enough...I have a 100' hose wrapped around it and no matter how tight I try and make the coils, the hose still drags on the ground. Wish it were taller so the grass could be cut under it with the hose on...now we have to pick it up and move it to cut the grass growing under it. If there is no grass where you plan to put it, the hose will still drag (if its 100') on the ground...your call if that is acceptable for you. I'm replacing it, don't like it...going back to a wall hanger type.

Hi, the one I bought, 13" L/4"W/1/8 Thick, found it to be really strong, cat unable to wreck !! am happy with this item.

I do believe that this one is 200lbs. I know that they have another one that is 500lbs. I routinely run my tank at 150 and it has not relieved yet. So, I know that you are good for the 100lbs that you are concerned about.

The thickness of the cap walls from my calipers is 1 to 2 mm, the wall thickness on the tube itself which I can not measure is a little thicker. Probably 3 or 4 mm.

1. Make sure edge of container and lid are clean, and the seal is well tucked in place.2. Place lid onto container. Press till it clicks in place.3. Use the small gray attachment. Apply vacuum till you hear pump sounds high .Vacuum should be maintained for at least 10 days. I have around 30 of these containers and have been using them for around 1 year.. With great success and satisfaction. These are the best and most convenient low priced products in the market. The only problem is that they are small. I wish they could make larger units.Enjoy this great product. 1. Make sure edge of container and lid are clean, and the seal is well tucked in place.2. Place lid onto container.

Hi Mauricio, The thickness of one of the filters measures close to .065" (without clamping a caliper down hard onto the filter). I only measured one but they look to be the same. The filters look to be dyed. I couldn't lift a film at the edge of the filter but this may be a better question for the seller. By the way, I didn't have any trouble sliding the filters into and out of the filter holder. The retention was appropriate. I did have a question for the seller and his response was immediate and reflected great customer service.

Just a thin straight line, maybe 1mm wide, up to 2 depending on the pressure you apply. In my experience it's been airtight for positive and negative (vacuum) pressures. The seal is very clean looking, and can be repeated one after another if a wider seal is desired (just tried this). It's got an adjustable timer too so you can seal different thickness plastics with ease.

Dave, you'll need to buy some hose and fittings. I converted my tank to 3/8" hose because the unit comes with 1/4" hose output. I used quick connect fittings also so unhooking hoses is a snap.

You have to make sure the pump is completely pushed down and suction to the bottom of the tank it can't be touching any of the walls or sides of the tank
