Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBC's)
Bulk Storage Tanks for Viscous Products














Medium Viscosity Containers
300 Gallon Polyethylene & Steel Lite-Pressure Piston Bin
for medium viscosity products from 500,000 to 1,000,000 centipoise

The poly-steel bins are designed for more viscous products such as #3 grade lubricating greases, polymers, silicones and peanut butter. This new version of our piston system includes a top steel lid that is securely attached to the polyethylene tank. Air pressure up to 6 psi is added above the piston to help force the material out of the bin and into a pump. Nitrogen can be used in place of factory air to maintain pressure above the piston and to protect products, such as silicone, from curing. Due to the steel frame, this bin can be easily handled 4-ways by fork lift and pallet jack. It is also stackable, rugged and durable and will fit side by side in standard 20' and 40' ISO shipping containers. By using the poly tank and piston, the material volume is easily seen and the net tare weight of the piston bin is reduced.
