Non-Stiffened & Stiffened Farm Hopper Bins

Below is a sampling of the many unique Brock features offered on BROCK On-Farm Hopper Tanks:

• A grain bin-style roof with a higher load rating is standard on larger diameter hopper bin models; economical hopper bin-style roof is standard for smaller models.
• Patented BROCK® Eave-Vent System provides more total bin ventilation and eliminates roof cuts.
• Gravity roof ventilators provide free air movement into the bin. Round mushroom-style (shown) and elbow-style vents are available.
• Top quality prime steel sidewall body sheets with a tensile strength up to 65 ksi (448 Mpa).
• Identification codes on every body sheet identify manufacturing date, part number, and steel gauge.
• Sidewalls are assembled using Brock’s high-strength Grade 8.2 bin seal bolts with special JS-1000™ weather-resistant coating.
• Optional Grade 8.2 polypropylene-encapsulated head bolts provide enhanced corrosion resistance.
• Optional sidewall ladders, as well as safety cages and rest platforms, conform to OSHA standards and are fabricated from galvanized steel for long-lasting service.
• Ladder safety cage is standard for ladders on bins with an eave height of over 20 feet (6.1 meters).
• Side ladders allow plenty of space between rungs and bin wall for a secure footing.
• Brock’s ACCESS PLUS® Hopper Access Door gives easy access to the interior of the holding tank’s hopper.
