Does eJuice Damage Plastic Tanks?

Some juice flavors, commonly known as ‘tank crackers’, contain elements that can cause damage to certain plastic tanks. Although there are several different kinds of plastics used to make tanks, we recommend erring on the side of caution, even though some plastics will not crack. Damage to plastic tanks can range from etching the inside of the tank to causing it to crack completely in half. Common juice flavors that may cause this are as follows – 

  • Juices containing lemon flavoring
  • Juices containing orange flavoring
  • Juices that contain a high volume of citric acid (commonly found in lemon and the like)
  • Juices that contain anise (black licorice flavoring)
  • Juices that contain cinnamon (the candy kind, not bakery cinnamon)
