operated by a Gas Cartridge Actuator (GCA).
All containers are designed and fabricated in accordance with DOT requirements. The

Containers are also available with dual markings that meet the requirement of both DOT

Each container is supplied with a 3” (80 mm) anti-recoil device consisting of a steel baffle
