Here is what I found so shouldn’t this be accurate? While it is separate it is still necessary as they work together.

 

The gas is a necessary component of the fabrication process, and the cylinder acts as the essential machinery/equipment required to contain and deliver that process gas.

 

So this should be covered under our form 500 for manufacturing exemption.   I updated the description to ensure both items are covered. 

 

The Equipment Exemption: In Arizona, renting or leasing tangible personal property is normally taxable, but A.R.S. § 42-5061(B)(1) provides an exemption for machinery and equipment used directlyin manufacturing operations. If the gas cylinder holds industrial process gases (like argon or CO2 for welding/fabrication), the cylinder itself counts as necessary manufacturing equipment

 

Hope this helps!

 

Thank you for your time,

Hello Lorena,

 

Arizona imposes Transaction Privilege Tax (TPT) on the business of renting, leasing, or licensing tangible personal property for consideration. Gas cylinders are physical equipment, meaning their rental charges are subject to state, county, and city TPT.  Even if the gas inside the cylinder qualifies for an exemption (such as prescribed medical oxygen or certain manufacturing gases), the rental or demurrage fee for the hardware container (the cylinder) is legally separate and fully taxable.

 

Let me know if there are any more questions or concerns.

 

Thanks.
