Saf-T-Cart 403-20FW Firewall Cylinder Cart

The Saf-T-Cart 403-20FW carries an oxygen cylinder and an acetylene cylinder with a steel firewall between them, chained in, on 20 in steel wheels.

Which cylinders fit: Saf-T-Cart lists cylinder capacity as 9-1/2 in and 12-1/2 in diameter. The standard 403-20FW has a 23-1/2 in x 12 in baseplate. The 403-20FW-P is widened for a 100 lb propane or 115 lb propylene cylinder (Saf-T-Cart's catalog), on a 27-1/2 in x 12 in baseplate. How to check your cylinders.

Why the firewall: OSHA requires oxygen cylinders in storage to be kept 20 ft from fuel-gas cylinders and combustible materials, or separated from them by a noncombustible barrier at least 5 ft high with a fire-resistance rating of at least half an hour (OSHA 1910.253(b)(4)(iii)). Saf-T-Cart states its firewalls are at least 60 in tall, block the line of sight between the oxygen and fuel-gas cylinders and carry a 30-minute burn rating, and says its firewall carts meet and exceed OSHA 1910.253. When a firewall cart is the right call: the firewall requirement. How separation works in a shop or on a jobsite: gas cylinder storage guide.
