Built to Perform

Bulk Feed Tanks

Solid Construction

Trusted Performance

The high tensile steel sidewall sheets are made with a G-90 galvanized coating for strength and durability. The 2-2/3" (968mm) wide by 1/2" (13mm) deep panel curvature is tooled and shaped in-house for easy assembly.

TRUSTED PERFORMANCE

STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY

Hopper slopes are available in 60° and 67° in either a 16” or 22” hopper opening. Rounded corners and down-turned sealing edges add safety and promote a weather-tight fit. Rounded, truss-head bolts reduces content bridging. Depending on the tank size, single or dual galvanized X-bracing is used to provide solid support and stability.

Rugged Bin Lid

PROTECT YOUR INVESTMENT

Rugged Bin Lid

Conveniently and safely operate AP's durable polyethylene feed tank lid from the ground. It swings open to a full 180°, lying flat and parallel to the ground from its position below the peak ring (on 7' and larger diameter bins.) Its simplified clamp-band design permits installation in a 360° orientation. The bin lid is available for 30° and 40° roof profiles, and retro-fit packages are available for 20" and 22-1/2" O.D. peak rings.

BFT Roof

REINFORCED BIN ROOF

AP offers your choice of a 30 degree or 40 degree bin roof to adapt to any application. Roof panels are precision manufactured with die-form tooling to provide consistent quality. Both 30 degree and 40 degree roofs feature reinforcing ribs at each roof seam for added strength and rigidity.

Galvanized Legs

DOING THE LEG WORK

A solid base of galvanized formed legs provides support for the tank’s load and Cumberland feed delivery systems and accessories.
