I don't see why it couldn't be converted into a fuel cell.
There are no measurements; only the tank is included. It is of good quality, and I would purchase it again.

The steel used to construct this tank is inexpensive, and it works well for what I need it to do. However, after cutting the tank open to fit my needs, I discovered rust on one end of the tank. This is bad news for my hydraulic system because rust can get inside the pump and cause premature wear.
This tank is the perfect size for a fabricated log splitter I'm building. The tank has a good number of ports. I do wish, however, that the tank had ports on both long sides. More placement options would be available as a result of this. I'm happy with the tank as a whole.
The breather has an unusual thread and size. I needed a tank with a large enough hole to accommodate a motor and pump. To increase capacity, I had to cut the hole in my smaller tank and weld it to this one. Construction is excellent. The filler with the screen is one of my favorites.
The tank has a problem for me. The tank leaks oil from the pressure cap while operating the towable backhoe. I'm not sure if it's overfilled or not because there is no information about the maximum oil level.
Because the tank is so good, I decided to put it on my 2 1/2-ton military truck rather than my tractor.
This thing is great; it has a strainer screen in the fill cap and a screen in the suction port; my only complaint is that the mounting tabs were bent during shipping, but they were easily bent back into shape. I don't think you'll be disappointed with this purchase.
This tank is made of good heavy gauge steel and is very nice. Although we would have preferred an upright tank, the bracket was modified to fit our needs. Thanks!.
