TANKGUARD

TANKGUARD is a product line of liquid storage tank bases designed to provide a stable, elevated foundation for above-ground cylindrical tanks. The bases are manufactured from plastic in a tan color and are available in a range of diameters to suit common tank sizes. Each base measures 6 inches in width and 5 3/4 inches in height, with lengths and diameters matched to the tank circumference. For example, the SKU 400D62 has a 162-inch diameter and a 163-inch length, while the SKU 400D61 has a 258-inch diameter and a 187-inch length. These bases are intended for use with water, chemical, and fuel storage tanks, where elevating the tank off the ground helps reduce corrosion and extend service life. The plastic construction is resistant to many industrial chemicals and weather conditions, making the bases suitable for outdoor installations. 3G Electric supplies TANKGUARD liquid storage tank bases as part of its industrial equipment portfolio. The product line includes multiple SKUs to accommodate different tank diameters, from 96 inches up to 258 inches. Each base is identified by a manufacturer part number, such as 1201296 for the 162-inch model or 1201182 for the 186-inch model. 3G Electric provides global logistics support for these products, allowing customers to specify the correct base for their tank size and application. The bases are shipped from inventory and can be integrated into new tank installations or used to retrofit existing above-ground tanks. Technical buyers should verify the tank diameter and the required load-bearing capacity when selecting a base. The TANKGUARD line is part of a broader range of industrial equipment available from 3G Electric, including burners, pumps, and gas controls. For applications requiring chemical resistance or UV stability, the plastic material of the bases is formulated to withstand exposure to the elements. The tan color is standard across the line. Installation typically involves placing the base on a level surface and positioning the tank on top, ensuring the base is centered and the tank is stable. No special tools are required for assembly, though proper site preparation is recommended to prevent settling. 3G Electric can provide dimensional data and part numbers to assist with selection. The bases are non-metallic, so they do not require grounding or cathodic protection. They are also lightweight relative to concrete or steel alternatives, which can simplify handling and installation. For high-temperature or high-purity applications, users should confirm compatibility with the tank contents and operating conditions. TANKGUARD bases are not intended for underground tanks or for use as primary containment. They are a support accessory for above-ground storage. 3G Electric maintains stock of multiple TANKGUARD SKUs and can ship to international destinations. Customers should reference the manufacturer part number when requesting a quote to ensure the correct diameter and configuration. The product line is continuously updated, and 3G Electric can confirm current availability and lead times upon inquiry.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about TANKGUARD from 3G Electric.

What sizes of TANKGUARD liquid storage tank bases are available?

TANKGUARD tank bases are offered in multiple diameters to match common above-ground tank sizes. From the SKUs supplied by 3G Electric, diameters include 96, 120, 144, 162, 186, 198, and 258 inches. Each base has a standard width of 6 inches and a height of 5 3/4 inches. The length varies with diameter, typically one inch greater than the diameter. For example, the 162-inch diameter base (MPN 1201296) has a length of 163 inches. To select the correct base, measure the outside diameter of your tank and choose the matching TANKGUARD SKU. 3G Electric can provide a full list of available part numbers and their dimensions.

What material are TANKGUARD tank bases made from?

TANKGUARD tank bases are manufactured from plastic in a tan color. The specific plastic formulation is not detailed in the product data, but it is intended for outdoor use and resistance to water, chemicals, and fuels. The non-metallic construction means the bases do not corrode, unlike steel, and they do not require painting or coating. They are also lighter than concrete bases, which can reduce shipping and installation costs. For applications involving aggressive chemicals or extreme temperatures, verify chemical compatibility with the tank contents and consult the manufacturer's guidelines. 3G Electric can provide material data sheets upon request.

How do TANKGUARD bases help extend the life of a storage tank?

By elevating the tank off the ground, TANKGUARD bases reduce contact between the tank bottom and soil or standing water. This minimizes the potential for corrosion on the tank exterior, particularly for metal tanks. The base also provides a level, stable foundation that helps prevent stress concentrations or deformation of the tank shell. Additionally, the base can simplify inspection and maintenance by allowing access to the tank bottom. The plastic material itself does not absorb water and is resistant to many chemicals, so it will not degrade when exposed to spills or washdown. Proper installation on a compacted, level surface is necessary to achieve these benefits.

Can TANKGUARD tank bases be used for fuel storage?

Yes, TANKGUARD tank bases are suitable for fuel storage tanks as well as water and chemical tanks. The plastic material is resistant to hydrocarbons and other fuels, though specific compatibility should be confirmed for the particular fuel and concentration. The bases are intended for above-ground tanks only and are not designed for underground installation. For fuel applications, ensure that the tank and base are installed in accordance with local regulations, including any requirements for secondary containment or leak detection. The base itself does not provide containment; it is a support structure. 3G Electric can supply the correct base size for your fuel tank diameter.

What is the load capacity of a TANKGUARD tank base?

The load capacity of TANKGUARD tank bases is not specified in the product data provided. The bases are designed to support above-ground liquid storage tanks, but the maximum load will depend on the tank size, the weight of the contents, and the installation conditions. The plastic construction and 5 3/4-inch height suggest they are intended for typical industrial tank loads. For critical applications, consult the manufacturer's engineering data or perform a structural assessment. 3G Electric can request load ratings from the manufacturer if needed. Always ensure the base is installed on a stable, level surface to prevent point loading or settling.

How does 3G Electric support TANKGUARD product selection?

3G Electric supplies TANKGUARD liquid storage tank bases and provides technical support to help customers select the correct SKU. The product line includes multiple part numbers, each corresponding to a specific diameter. Customers can reference the manufacturer part number (e.g., 1201296 for 162-inch diameter) when requesting a quote. 3G Electric can confirm current availability, lead times, and shipping options to global destinations. For applications requiring custom sizes or additional technical data, 3G Electric can coordinate with the manufacturer. The company also stocks related industrial equipment, such as burners, pumps, and gas controls, allowing for consolidated procurement.
