CMCO tanks are constructed of 7 gauge minimum sheet steel and structural. Most fuel tank manufacturers “wipe down” their tanks prior to painting. At CMCO, all sub-base fuel tanks (regardless of size) are shot blasted prior to painting. A corrosion resistant primer is applied and acrylic enamel finish paint is applied providing the highest quality finish in the industry. CMCO sub-base fuel tanks are designed and manufactured to withstand extreme environmental conditions.

All CMCO fuel tanks are supplied with rigging and off-loading instructions and installation instructions.
