BENEFITS OF ALUMINIZED STEEL FOR FUEL TANKS
IFH pioneered the use of aluminized steel (sheet steel hot dip coated on both sides with an aluminum-silicon alloy) to solve the contamination problems inherent in uncoated steels. It combines the corrosion resistance of aluminum with the structural strength (and lower cost) of steel.
- Our aluminized fuel tanks are resistant to virtually all petroleum-based and synthetic fluids while providing excellent protection from atmospheric corrosion.
- These tanks can be readily welded using resistance, MIG, or TIG processes, and can be formed using normal methods, with no peeling or flaking of the coating.
- Provides an attractive satin finish that can be easily painted once the surface has been properly cleaned and repaired.
- Corrosion resistant
- Compatible with virtually all petroleum-based and synthetic fluids.
- Fuel tanks can be designed and manufactured to very low initial contamination levels.
- At The IFH Group, Inc. We Fabricate Solutions to problems that cost money and create quality issues. Our team approach to projects allows us to lead the industry in innovative approaches to everyday problems.
- When you have a need for a custom Fuel Tank, IFH is the place to call. We work tirelessly to make sure you receive the fuel tank you need, no matter what!
The IFH Group started in 1945 as King's Weld Shop of Rock Falls, Illinois, fixing anything from farm equipment to trailer. The company was incorporated in 1966 as J.L. King Co., Inc. took on fabrication work as the company expanded.
