TCP Global 5 Gallon (20 Liters) Pressure Pot Tank for Resin Casting - Heavy Duty Powder Coated Pot with Air Tight Clamp On Lid, Caster Wheels, Regulator, Gauge - Use for Curing Resin in Casting Molds

Really well built.

It had a problem with the regulator leaking air so I removed it and now the pot is holding pressure.

It worked fine out of the box. After a few months, it started leaking. The air intake regulator wasnt attached properly with plumbers tape. I fixed that issue. Then, the air intake regular started leaking from the 2 bolts on each side. My fix was to remove it entirely, because my air compressor has an air regulator on its output. I also had to use plumbers tape to seal each connection.

I went from a 2 1/2 gal to this and it allows larger resin projects. Very well made and deals nicely.

2 stars to 4 stars update... Customer support for TCP was very helpful after speaking with them had to arrange return and replace for the product...After buying this product Im happy with the results but the regulator has a leak on it which causes my air compressor to come on frequently. I have reached out to the company for support 3 days ago and have not yet heard back from them. The regulator has a plug on each side both the same but one is metal one is plastic... The plastic one on the side you cannot tighten because its glued in place that one is the one that is leaking air. I am submitting a photo for you to have a look at so that you can be aware of the same possible issue if you buy this product. REVIEW UPDATE: Its been a week and still have not heard back from customer support on my air leak may have to send back and replace the whole unit, because of the lack of customer service... But I would like to show something I made for the inside of the tank that might help others... I thought with such a large space inside I hated to see all that go to waste, so I made these shelves...Helps me out a lot so I can add more resin crafts at one time and utilize more space. I just bought off Amazon 12 round plexiglass and 1 dowel, I countersunk the screws on the bottom, by the way I cut the dowels at 6 in length... Hope this idea helps others...

The shipping on this was super fast and it came ready to use out of the box. The only assembly I needed to do was attach the wheels on the bottom. It holds pressure really well. I had it at 40 psi and it only lost 3 psi over 20 hours which is fine for my purposes as the silicone and resin I use it for do not take that long to set. 10/10 would buy again and I highly recommend investing in one of these for mold making and resin casting. Its well worth the price.

It’s a good tank. In the end I’m pleased with how it works however…I did have some issues getting a seal that I eventually sorted out through trial and error. First almost all the fittings were tight but not tight enough to prevent a slow loss of pressure. Soapy water trick eventually solved this. Second the tank is shipped in a near useless cardboard box that was so battered and beaten that I wondered why they bothered at all. It’s a good thing that the loose parts are placed inside the tank prior to shipping or none of them would have been in the box. This lack of proper packaging I expect why another leak was created. There was a dime sized chip in the paint on the rim of the tank right where the lid gasket sits. Because the paint is thick, the lid gasket would not conform to the shape between where there is paint and no paint . The leak was slow but noticeable. In 12 hours it would lose 20 psi. Sanding the paint either side of the chip to reduce the ridge between paint and no paint, corrected the problem. The poor packaging also resulted in one of the lid clamps arriving bent. Fixable but when you spend $1000 canadian I would have thought it would be packaged well enough to ship it without damage. If it didn’t have to go through customs and take so long to be replaced I would have sent it back for a replacement that was undamaged. All of this said, it’s a good tank. Large enough for bigger castings to fit. Built strong enough to survive relatively well despite being battered during shipping. If you can get one without the damage from inadequate packaging then it’s 5 stars.

product is phenomenal, works right out of the box. Just hook an air hose up and go a few seconds, or a bike pump and hit a good workout

We did have to replace one of the parts it came with for the air compressor hookup (it took forever to fill because it wasn’t airtight) and there is a slow leak. We’ve tried sealing it and it’s helped, but we do have to fill it up again after 1-2 hours. Otherwise, it does get the job done, but don’t be surprised if you have to fill it more than once to keep the pressure up.
