Product Information

Keep this small and convenient Tank Repair Kit with Oversize Surface Plugs on site to quickly stop leaks in large, low pressure containers. Our basic 4-piece repair kit includes three different plug types—Taper Surface, T Patch, and Ball⁠—inside a portable metal storage box.

Fast and easy to install, the plugs feature quality stainless steel and neoprene or rubber gasket componentry. Use these oversize plugs to control puncture holes of up to 3inch diameter, or, tears of 3-to-9inches in size. The various plugs are suitable for use on flat to concave storage tank surfaces.

A must-have item for any drum storage area, this DIY fuel tank repair kit offers temporary leak control to keep your workplace and employees safe. Our plug and patch kits eliminate the need for dangerous welding repairs on gas tanks or drums storing hazardous or combustible materials.

Kit Part Applications

Ball Plug: Use on deeply concave or indented surfaces where a flat patch will fail. Insert the toggle through the hole and tightening its wind nut until you restrict the leak.

Taper Surface Plug: Use to repair leak holes on flat or slightly curved surfaces. Install following the ball plug instructions above.

T Bolt Crack Patch: Use on a larger hole/crack near tank bottoms, as well as irregular shape gashes or elongated skin breaks. The wide surface area has a generous 1/4" thick neoprene pad on the facing and stiff, curved back-up plate. Both the plate and bolts are made of heavy-duty stainless steel. Installs similar to a ball plug, except the T-bolt straddles the crack.
