Material Specifications
Tank Body
The main tank structure comprises 0.80m wide x 3.05m long panels of 22 swg. (0.80mm) corrugated galvanised steel which are punched and curved to suit the tank size. Galvanised round headed bolts with washers and nuts are provided to assemble the steel panels to form a ring of the required diameter and height. The top edge of the steel is protected by a circular plastic capping piece.
Tank Lining
The lining comprises a fully welded watertight bag sized to suit the tank. The lining provided for the harsh environment of emergency aid is a 1.25mm thick nylon reinforced synthetic rubber approved for the storage of drinking water.
A liner is held in position at the top of the tank by clamping between two capping pieces and locking in position using spring clips.
