Download PDF<\/a><\/p>\nMesa Engineered Tank Products has announced a major advancement in seal technology with ClipLockTM<\/sup>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\nClipLockTM<\/sup>\u00a0is a new fastener-free lock-in-place fabric attachment system that reduces emissions and makes installing WG floating roof seals faster, easier, and safer for the installer and the environment.<\/p>\n\u201cThis new proprietary solution lets workers spend less tank time on in-service installations. Plus, there are no small fasteners that discourage the use of required safety gloves,\u201d said Tim Nymberg, Mesa ETP CEO. \u201cClipLockTM<\/sup>\u00a0replaces the time-consuming bolt-through system that can compromise fabric integrity.\u201d<\/p>\n\u201cThe lock-in-place system creates a 100% fabric contact without fasteners, a method that has been shown in laboratory tests to significantly reduce product emissions. In actual storage tank field tests, workers installed the WG shoe seal with ClipLockTM<\/sup>\u00a0attachment system in about half the time of the conventional bolt-through cover plate design,\u201d said Adam Vance, Mesa ETP Business Innovation Manager. \u201cThe ClipLockTM<\/sup>\u00a0fabric attachment system even allows seal segments to be easily detached and reattached at any point for quick inspections and storage tank repair without costly decommissioning.\u201d<\/p>\nEach shoe plate section of ClipLockTM<\/sup>\u00a0features a pre-attached bracket. The installer simply positions the seal fabric on the bracket and secures it place with a proprietary full-length spring clip for a complete seal contact around the entire circumference of the tank. No part of the fabric seal is punched or cut to seat over bolts. This allows the ClipLockTM<\/sup>\u00a0fabric attachment system to dramatically reduce product loss and emissions.<\/p>\nTo learn more, call a product specialist at 1-866-368-7532 or fill out the form below to talk to a tank expert.<\/p>\n
