UFA farm supply stores and fuel distributors used to handle them, not sure if they still do or not.

| I had called paddle plastics to inquire about tanks for fuel and I was told that their product was not rated for gas, possibly just a liability statement , but apparently some plastics cause friction with the gas movement and then its not good. There are lots of plastic tanks in boats, so who do you believe ? Has anyone used their tanks ? If they are ok I would like to get a couple 70 gal ones , but am unsure, any feedback ? |

| I have one for the few times that I need extra fuel - in saying that all plastic containers(or any portable container) can have static electricity. You should always ground yourself when filling any fuel tank, you should also always have a ground strap on any fuel tank(plastic or any metal) to help minimize sparks. |
