Load distribution and tank floor protection designed to reduce emissions and extend tank life.
BPP Tank Leg Feet are engineered to distribute point loads, protect tank bottoms, and reduce vapor migration at the leg-to-floor interface. Designed for hydrocarbon service and heavy-load environments, they provide a durable barrier between steel tank legs and the tank floor, helping operators reduce bottom wear, protect coatings, and improve long-term mechanical integrity.
Simple installation. Long-term protection. Lower lifecycle risk.

Floating roof tanks cycle up and down regularly as inventory levels change. Tank legs are designed to contact the floor only when a tank is intentionally taken out of service.
In real-world operations, however, normal operational variability like level fluctuations, timing differences, and routine adjustments, can occasionally allow the roof to settle lower than intended. When this occurs, it is the tank legs—not the roof—that make contact with the tank bottom.
Even brief contact events create concentrated point loads that damage coatings and accelerate tank floor wear. Tank bottom repairs are among the most costly maintenance events in storage tank operations.
These are not generic pads or improvised spacers. Tank Leg Feet are purpose-built components engineered to:
Tank Leg Feet are designed for refinery, terminal, and tank farm environments where tank bottoms and coatings are exposed to continuous operational stresses.
Tank Leg Feet contribute to both mechanical integrity and emissions performance at the leg-to-floor interface. A small component—addressing a high-consequence failure point.
Tank Leg Feet are designed to distribute load and protect tank floors in real-world storage tank environments where incidental roof landings can occur. Suitable for both retrofit installations and new construction, they provide a durable interface between the tank leg and the floor—helping operators protect coatings, reduce localized stress, and maintain long-term tank bottom integrity.
If you are evaluating tank floor life, emissions performance, or upcoming inspection cycles, our engineering team can review your configuration and recommend the appropriate solution.
