Commercial Bins
Commercial grain bins offer outstanding strength and durability.
SCAFCO Commercial Bins
SCAFCO commercial grain bins offer outstanding strength and durability. All roofs, wall sheets and stiffeners are manufactured from G115 coated steel (min. 350gr/m2 zinc). SCAFCO 42 2 ⁄3″(1.08 m) wide corrugated sheets are manufactured from high strength steel, with galvanized steel stiffeners and strong box-rib roofs. Diameters range from 15’ (4.57 m) to 138’ (42.06 m). SCAFCO also manufactures material handling equipment to complete your grain storage project.
Giant Doors
SCAFCO giant doors are designed for drive-in access for small
front-end loaders or other equipment.
Two sizes are available:
• 6’ 3 1⁄2″high x 5’ 7 1⁄2″ wide (1.92 m x 1.72 m)
• 8’ 0″ high x 6’ 0″ wide (2.44 m x 1.83 m).
Side Discharge System
SCAFCO side discharge system allows gravity loadout to trucks or rail cars. Interior flumes channel grain from the top storage level to the discharge chute. Available with 12″(300 mm) square discharge outlet and rack and pinion gate.
Access Doors
Heavy-duty 231⁄2″ x 26″ (597 mm x 660 mm) access doors are factory welded into the bin’s wall sheets.
Easy access options include a heavy-duty walk-in door 28″ x 60″ (711 mm x 1524 mm).
Commercial Wall Sheets
SCAFCO unique 42 2⁄3″ (1.08 m) galvanized steel wall sheets have a 2 2⁄3″ pitch and 1⁄2″ (67.7 mm x 12.7 mm) deep corrugation. Wall sheets are pre-punched in a single stroke operation, assuring accurate hole alignment and uniform fit. Sheets are precision rollformed using galvanized steel with a
minimum of 57 ksi (393 MPa) yield strength.
Heavy-duty Stiffeners
SCAFCO heavy-duty stiffeners use 57-ksi yield strength (393 MPa) [65 ksi minimum tensile strength (448 MPa)], hot-dipped galvanized steel. The profile can handle the drawdown of very tall bins and severe seismic loads.
Each bin utilizes several stiffener gauges for the most efficient column design. Heavy-duty stiffeners transfer draw down loads from the sidewalls to the foundation. Stiffener base plate is factory welded to the bottom stiffener, providing durable bin anchorage in order to resist lateral and uplift loads.
Complete Ladder Systems
Complete interior & exterior ladder systems are available with safety cage and rest platforms for sidewall heights above 20’ (6.10 m).
