 American Tank Company’s elliptical leg tanks are used for a wide variety of applications including the storage and/or transport of potable water, gray water, wine, most liquid agricultural chemicals, and a wide range of industrial chemicals.
Elliptical leg tanks are designed to provide the largest capacity available while maintaining the lowest center of gravity and are ideal for transporting larger volumes of liquid. The low profile design is excellent for driving visibility in the field and increased stability when towed on a trailer.
American Tank Company’s elliptical polyethylene (poly) leg tanks are manufactured by means of the rotational molding process, which produces a one-piece, seamless, watertight tank. Linear poly tanks are molded from 100% FDA approved materials and are therefore safe for storage of food products and polyethylene will not impart any taste or residue.
American Tank Company’s elliptical poly leg tanks are UV stabilized and will not breakdown under harsh outdoor weather conditions. Standard weight tanks (Natural Color) will safely handle liquids with a specific gravity up to 1.5 and weighing up to 12.5 Lbs. per gallon. Heavy-duty tanks (Blue Color) will safely handle liquids with a specific gravity up to 2.0 and weighing up to 16.5 Lbs. per gallon. Linear polyethylene allows for easy viewing of liquid levels. These tanks are designed to withstand sustained temperatures up to 120º F, and peak temperatures up to 140º F.
A pre-installed outlet drain fitting on one end makes plumbing hookup easy. Elliptical leg tanks have molded-in legs to help reduce sloshing and allow for easy securing of the tank to the truck. All bands are custom fabricated to support the tanks and are galvanized for added corrosion protection.
Whether using the tank in a stationary position or for transport, these tanks require full-length bottom support and bands to validate the warranty and to ensure that the tank retains its shape and integrity.
American Tank Company supports the manufacturer’s 3-year warranty dependent on the chemical compatibility of the intended contents with the tank, tank fitting, and fitting gasket materials. These tanks are not Department of Transportation (DOT) rated.
Due to the nature of the rotational molding process, dimensions may vary from what is published and shown on the referenced drawings.
During the delivery process, tanks can pass between several docks and trucks on their way from the factory to the customer. Though not a guarantee, tank wrap “helps” to protect the tanks from getting scuffed and dirty. The best way to avoid cosmetic damage is to set up a will call at the factory and personally handle the tanks yourself.
