Built to Perform

PROTECT YOUR INVESTMENT

Bin Lid

Cap opens a full 180 degrees to prevent any interference with fill equipment. GSI’s standard ground control kit allows you to safely open and close the lid from the ground.

Seal Bin Roof

Weather tight connection of the roof to the sidewall prevents moisture from entering the bin, keeping your feed protected from moisture.

60 Degree Hopper

To easily unload heavy materials, including feed, a 60⁰ hopper with truss head bolts prevent the material from being caught up on hardware and causing bridging events.

Drip Lip

Our drip lip is a one-of-a-kind, roll-formed bottom sheet edge that forces water away from running down the hopper and the lower boot area, keeping water away from the tank seams.

6′ – 9′ Bulk Feed Tanks – (BFT – 60 & 67 degree Hoppers)
– For storage of free-flowing material having a maximum density of 40 lbs. per cubic foot.
– Bushel capacities are calculated with no compaction and to full cubic foot capacities.
– Weight capacities are calculated at 40 lbs. per cubic foot.

12′ – 15′ Bulk Feed Tanks – (BFT – 60 degree Hoppers)
– For storage of free-flowing material having a maximum density of 45 lbs. per cubic foot.
– Bushel capacities are calculated with 5% compaction and at a 27° angle of repose.
– Weight capacities are calculated at 45 lbs. per cubic foot.

Warning! Non-free flowing materials including (but not limited to) soybean meal and meat by-products should not be stored in these tanks due to their inherent nature to bridging. Check with your material supplier on the flowability of your product prior to purchasing a tank. If in doubt about a specific product, contact GSI Group engineering department for additional recommendations. Some features are optional and may be available only on certain models. Consult your local GSI dealer for details. All specifications subject to change without notice.
