Plastic Transfer
Tanks for
liquids have in most cases replaced fiberglass or metal
transfer tanks. This is true for almost all liquids with the
exception of diesel and gasoline.
|
While
plastic liquid transfer tanks come in many shapes and sizes,
the most popular shape is the Horizontal Leg Tank. These
tanks are long and relatively low in shape. They can be
fastened to a trailer or the bed of a truck with metal bands
or straps that are available through us.
|
These
transfer tanks are most often used to transport water and
also to transport chemicals. It should be noted that these
tanks are not DOT approved so any application such as the
movement of hazardous chemicals may not be appropriate.
Check with the Federal and State Department of
Transportation for details.
|
Most of
our plastic liquid transfer tanks are made from
Polyethylene. This is usually the most cost efficient
plastic to use. If, however, you need special chemical
resistance or will be storing liquids at high temperatures,
we also produce these tanks from polypropylene, pvdf (Kynar)
and Halar.
