FEATURES
Manufactured using advanced resin technology and a dense matrix of glass fibre reinforcement ensures superior laminate strength. With the high specific gravity of liquid fertiliser at SG 1.33 and the new phosphorus based fertilisers, all Tanks West Liquid fertiliser products are built to handle liquids with a SG up to 1.5 ensuring a generous safety margin providing effective long-term storage of your liquid fertilisers.
Superior chemical resistance is achieved through the terephthalic resin system employed in these tanks. This advanced system ensures the tanks are equipped to handle a range of fertilisers, insecticides and herbicides, and temperatures up to 60°C. Catering for the more aggressive phosphorus and NPK fertilisers of the future is smart thinking meaning growers have their options covered into the future.
Stainless Steel valves and flanges provide increased resistance against corrosion and the moulded poly fill line is more robust and long lasting than its PVC equivalent. 3” Fittings are included with the 50,000 and 60,000L and can be ordered at an additional cost for the 43,000 and 23,000L. 3” fittings allow faster liquid transfer, saving you precious time during busy periods.
Our unique design features a central hoop strength band and combined with the lower profile of our tank greatly improves strength and longevity.
This counter balanced gauge means the level indicator tracks the tank volume. When the gauge is at the top, the tank is full. No more mistakes as the operator was in a hurry, you can see at a glance how much is left in the tank.
The two-part safety access hatch restricts unauthorised entry to the tanks and provides an extra level of safety.
Our fleet of purpose built delivery trucks ensures your storage tanks are delivered efficiently and on time by our professional drivers.
ADVANTAGES
The Material Advantages of Fibreglass Vs Polyethylene Liquid Fertiliser Storage Tanks
At 25°C a Tanks West tank is 8 times stronger than a polyethylene tank
Polyethylene conducts 55% more heat than fibreglass
At 25°C a Tanks West tanks is 10 times harder than a polyethylene tank
A tanks West Tank is 12 to 30 times stiffer than a polyethylene tank
At 20°C polyethylene creeps (stretches) 30 to 50 times more than fibreglass, meaning that your Tanks West tank will not deform under loads like some polyethylene tanks
*The above comparison of engineering properties is based on published data relating to the common grades of fibreglass and polyethylene used in tank manufacture.
