Performix SL500 Mix System Tank
Strategically Engineered Mix Tank
The Performix SL500 System Tank is designed to provide efficient, consistent mixing of bentonite and drilling fluids for horizontal directional drilling applications. Its specialized tank geometry promotes strong fluid movement and helps reduce material settling during the mixing process.
The SL500 features a radius bottom, four tank jets, a front-to-back slope, and a center sump area that work together to improve tank roll and maintain proper circulation throughout the system. Mounted on a heavy-duty skid, the tank maintains a compact 24-inch-wide footprint, making efficient use of valuable trailer space.
