Off course, use common sense in whatever you do. Let out the pressure and make sure there is no flammables left when you braze. This Helium balloon tank has the same size/ shape/ weight/ construction as freon tanks and will hold 28" HG with no problem. The only difference is the output fitting. The Helium balloon tank has a hand squeezed nipple valve to fill balloons with.
