Abstract
A pressure vessel includes a composite wall and a boss. The composite wall includes an outer shell, an inner liner disposed within the outer shell, and a port in the wall through which fluid may be communicated between an exterior of the pressure vessel and an interior of the pressure vessel. The boss is disposed at the port. The boss includes a neck projecting interiorly into the pressure vessel and a flange extending radially outward from the neck. The liner contacts the flange and does not contact at least an interiorly extending portion of the neck.
