Flexible Sealing for Bolted Tank Joints
Butyl sealing tape provides a compressible, water-resistant layer between mating surfaces. Hastings uses butyl tape in the overlapping seams of its bottomless stock-tank panels, where the bolted joint compresses the tape to help prevent leakage.
Best Practices
- Apply to clean, dry mating surfaces
- Run the tape continuously through the joint without gaps
- Avoid stretching, twisting or contaminating the sealing surface
- Use the correct bolt pattern and joint compression for the tank
Each roll contains approximately 30 ft of tape. Calculate the required quantity from the number and length of seams in the specific tank rather than estimating from tank diameter alone.
