Tank Seals
TANCO is ready to
meet all of your tank seal needs whether you want to purchase a seal and
install it yourself or have TANCO perform the installation. TANCO can supply and install mechanical shoe
seals, wiper seals, and secondary seals.
Primary Seals
TANCO's patented mechanical shoe seal is unsurpassed in the
industry, and it is designed with performance, longevity and value in mind.
Performance
Six pressure points per shoe at the liquid level, closes shoe
to shell gaps at the dip leg for maximum benefit of liquid mounted shoes.
Nine
pressure points evenly located along the top of the shoe are distributed by hold
down bars. The uniform pressure minimizes wind and water
penetration. It also ensures uniform shoe-to-shell contact at all vertical and horizontal shell seams.
Localized
shell irregularities are negotiated by a simple slide built into the top hanger
bracket, eliminating the need for expensive pantographs. A wide range of rim
spaces can be accommodated with our variable attachment hardware. These
features, combined with exceptional expansion/contraction capabilities, make
TANCO's seal a leader in the Tank Industry.
Longevity
TANCO uses 100% stainless steel supports and spring hardware on
all seals. Combine these with nonmetallic vapor barriers with maximum ultra
violet, hydrolytic, and aromatic resistance, and you have a seal that will stand
the test of time.
Value
Simplicity of design reduces material, fabrication, and
installation costs, allowing outstanding longevity and performance at lower
costs. Unique stainless steel hanger assemblies allow each shoe and it's associated
springs to be installed or removed by hand with six easily accessible bolts.
This procedure does not require come-a-longs, cables, or shell lugs.
