Fuel Tanks for Forklift

Various baffles in racecars and aircraft contain "lightening" holes. These flanged holes have two purposes. They add strength to the baffles while reducing the weight of the tank. Openings are added toward the ends of construction for the drain, the fuel pickup, the filler neck and the fluid-level sending unit. Sometimes these holes are added when the fabrication method is done, other times they are created on the flat shell.

The ends and the baffles are next riveted in position. Normally, the rivet heads are brazed or soldered to be able to prevent tank leakage. Ends can after that be hemmed in and flanged and brazed, or soldered, or sealed utilizing an epoxy type of sealant, or the ends can also be flanged and after that welded.
