AGRICULTURAL STORAGE C&L Silver Shield grain bin

AGRICULTURAL STORAGE C&L Silver Shield grain bin

• With 197 Standard size options from 576 bushels, up to 175,500 bushels, we can help you meet your specific storage requirements.
• Our galvanized steel wall panels utilize external bolted flanges and spot welded reinforcing bars, leaving the inside of the bin wall smooth. With this, bolting through the bin wall is held to an absolute minimum.
• For more corrosive applications, roofs, walls, and even aeration floors can be manufactured from stainless steel.
• Silver Shield grain bins are built from the roof-down, allowing nearly all construction to occur at the ground level.  New rings are added to the bottom as the bin is jacked up.
• Should you prefer construction with a crane, many Silver Shield bins can be built in sections on the ground, prior setting them in place with a crane.  Consult C&L for crane lifting instructions.
• As with construction, our ring gauge schedules are spec’d from the roof-down, allowing your Silver Shield bins to “grow” with your operation.  By sizing your bin foundations for future growth, a bin originally built to the minimum standard wall height can later be built up to the maximum available wall height by simply adding rings to the bottom.    (Consult Clayton & Lambert for specific ring gauge schedules and minimum foundation recommendations)
• Unlike other bin manufacturers who use “anchor brackets” to secure their bin to its the foundation, all Silver Shield flat-bottom bins utilize a C&L designed full perimeter “footer channel”, which is set into the foundation of the bin when the concrete is poured. This means a better sealed base ring and a truly “anchored” bin.
