QUESTION AND ANSWER POSTED 12 AUGUST 2022:

We used to use 12 inch wide wiper seal on tank diameters that were 21 foot and greater.   We now use 12 inch wide wiper seal on tanks greater than 35 foot diameter.   For tanks that are 25’ 3” in diameter, we now use our radius wiper which is 10.5 inches wide.   It is made of the same polyurethane properties as the 12 inch wide wiper, but comes in 14 foot lengths, whereas our 12 inch wide wiper comes in 28 foot lengths.  (IAW UFGS 33 56 21.17)

As for the exception to sea water,  we have never tested our wiper seal against sea water so we cannot claim compatibility, however it comes up once or twice a year and has never been an issue.  

Response

14 foot lengths and non-compatibility with seawater both are not in accordance with UFGS 33 56 21.17.
