Cables
Safe and effective floating roof support system.
Our adjustable stainless steel cable supports eliminate the need for an in-service entry to set low operating or high maintenance positions on the Sandborn IFR system. They also provide an obstruction-free bottom for future tank cleaning or floor work, and are compatible with most steel cone roofs and geodesic aluminum domes.
Entry-less adjustability for operation and maintenance positions.
Multiple landed positions available (operating, maintenance, high-high, etc.).
Eliminates projections beneath deck surface for ease of tank cleaning.
Engineered to meet tank requirements.
