Pioneer Water Tanks has revolutionised water storage with its 8-80 V-LOCK® wall profile, setting a new benchmark in tank engineering that offers unmatched strength and longevity. Traditional water tanks often face liner damage due to deep corrugations, which stretch and stress the liner during water level changes, leading to mechanical failure over time.

Pioneer's 8-80 V-LOCK® design features flatter corrugations that significantly reduce the flexing and stress on the liner. This innovative approach ensures the liner remains intact and functional for a much longer period. The 8-80 V-LOCK® profile represents a remarkable feat of engineering, providing superior internal support for the tank liner and maximising its lifespan.

The 8-80 V-LOCK® system stands out due to its exclusive design, custom-engineered specifically for water storage. This design adds inherent strength to the sheet metal. This unique profiling offers exceptional internal strength and support, which is crucial for extending the life of the tank liner.

Additionally, the Boltstrip, a single-piece strip, ensures even and consistent clamping force along its length. This system not only provides a clean finish but also conceals the bolt threads to prevent tampering. The use of high-tensile, galvanised bolts with flanged heads further boosts the tank's strength and clamping ability.

Pioneer's 8-80 V-LOCK® system exemplifies the company’s commitment to quality and innovation. By protecting the liner from undue stress, Pioneer's tanks offer unparalleled durability and reliability, making them the superior choice for long-term water storage solutions.
