If anyone feels the need to work with plastic, conical-bottomed tanks, please be advised that the government issue bulkhead fittings that come with these tanks create a small dam that prevents complete drainage.
If you are buying this style tank for the purpose of complete drainage, you will need to special order the tank with a "spun weld" drain. This is a threaded nipple that is "spun weld" into the bottom of tank at the factory and runs flush with the inside, eliminating the "dam effect" of a standard bulkhead fitting. Generally this fitting option runs $40 - $60 extra, presuming the distributor is able to meet your request. Snyder Tank has no problem accepting custom orders. Catalogue companies such as US Plastic, et al, may have some difficulty in accomodating such need. Todd Swearingen ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ---------------------~--> Yahoo!
