Cradle and Skid-Mounted Tanks
Diesel prices may fluctuate, but the high quality of our tanks remain consistent
Forgeweld’s cradle-mounted and skid-mounted tanks are engineered to withstand the harshest environments. Whether mounted on cradles fixed to the floor or fitted with skids for easy repositioning on-site, these tanks are built to withstand the onslaught of the elements and the roughest terrain.
Features
Low maintenance
Maintenance is virtually zero. The exterior of these single-walled tanks are coated with a tough shield of heat-reflective paint. Interiors can also be coated or painted upon request.
Tough and durable
Constructed in hardwearing carbon steel, these tanks are Forgeweld’s trusty workhorses for the fuel and construction industries. Submerged arc welding performed under a blanket of flux ensures strong, clean welds with deep penetration, no spatter, and exceptional corrosion resistance – perfect for long term service in the field.
SANS 10131 COMPLIANT
Compliance and certification
Like all Forgeweld’s aboveground tanks, these vessels comply with SANS 10131 standards, your assurance of a quality tank that’s tougher than tough.
