Forgeweld diesel tanks have become a familiar sight on the South African landscape. Generations of farmers have relied on the workmanship that goes into building these cylindrical storage tanks that last and last.
For a sure-sealing weld, lap joints are applied by MIG welding. This reduces the number of critical parameters in the weld to just two – the two faces of the parts where they overlap, and here the tolerances are reassuringly high.
All storage tanks manufactured by Forgeweld Engineering (Pty) Ltd carries a warranty against defective materials and workmanship for a period of 24 months from the date of installation.
Maintenance is virtually zero. The exterior is finished with a tough shield of heat-reflective silver paint. The tanks are single-walled cylinders, but could be fabricated with a double wall if required.
The tanks are supplied in the dimensions shown below on an option of a 1m, 2m or 3m stand.
Forgeweld’s Bulk to Farmer tanks comply with SANS 10131, your further assurance of a tank that will outlast the seasons, year after year.
