Each storage application is unique and requires a system designed in accordance with your specifications. You'll find our silo skirt, legs, or gusset supported in configurations up to 100,000 CF dry storage capacity and 7.5 million gallon liquid capacity.

The exclusive Boss Tank Flat Panel design provides a “smooth wall” interior surface and NO LEAK bolted silo design which outdates existing API flanged tanks. 

Our Flat Panel Bolted Tanks have lap seams horizontally as well as vertically; they are virtually “leak free”. There is no interior ledge for product hang-up or flanges to make sealing a problem.

Erector Quotation:

“With flanged bolted tanks it is not a matter of if it will leak, it is a matter of when it will leak. If a flat panel bolted tank is erected correctly, it will be leak-free, first test.”

Safety, Safety, Safety

In addition each bolted tank is constructed without ever leaving the ground – even on bolted tanks over 100’ tall!  See “Installation of a Flat Panel Bolted Tank” section for further details.

Problems with Old API Flanged Bolted Silos

  • API flanged bolted tanks are stressed, at the gasket/flange point, by the internal, product pressure.
  • Worn tooling produces flanges of less than 90-degrees, thereby creating more stress on the gasket as internal pressurizes this area.
  • Scaffolding must be erected around the bolted silo, sometimes 100’ off grade to install, creating a safety liability.
  • Flanges collect material and water thereby rusting
DesignIssues
  • Flat panel overlap uses internal silo pressure to form a tighter seal.
  • Flat panel design provides a smooth walled interior surface.
  • Safety, Safety, Safety.  Bolted Silos are installed from grade level.
  • Our powder coating system, Fusion 5000 FBETM, is unmatched in the industry and the powder coating line has a rating 3x’s that of any other tank manufacturer.
