One steel band, five pounds, for a 100 gallon utility tank
Part number 63552 is the Norwesco Steel Bands for Norwesco 100 Gallon Utility Tank, sold as the name says, One Each. The material cell reads Steel and the catalogue category reads Tank Band. The dimension cells give 30 inches by 1 inch by 24 inches, and the shipped shipping dimensions read the same 30 by 1 by 24. Empty weight reads 5 lb and the ship weight cell reads 5 lb. The freight class cell reads UPS while the ship mode cell reads LTL, and the NMFC cell reads 178690. Six plants are printed and the ship-from cell names eight states. No specific gravity, outlet, inlet, lid, maximum temperature or warranty cell appears, and the sibling list is empty.

A band, a tank wall, and nothing else printed
- The hardware is a steel band. The material cell reads Steel and the record adds no gauge, finish, coating, buckle, bolt, nut or bracket to that.
- What it goes around is named in the title: a 100 gallon utility tank. No tank part number is printed on this record, so the pairing is confirmed from the tank's own paperwork.
- The part measures 30 inches by 1 inch by 24 inches, an inch wide on its narrow axis, and those are the figures to hold against the tank when you check what you have received.
- The record carries no tension, tightening or fastening instruction of any kind, and no spacing figure. None of that is inferred here.
- The name reads One Each, which is the unit of sale. This record is a single band; how many a given tank calls for is not printed on the sheet and is not something this page will assume.
The last two entries are the honest limitation of the page, and on a banding part they matter more than usual, because the temptation is to read an inch of steel as a rated component with a published tightening procedure. This record does not publish one.
No companion part numbers on this record
63552 shows an empty sibling list. Unlike a tank, a band is not offered as a range you choose a point on; it is offered against a named tank, and that name has already made the choice for you. The consequence for ordering is worth stating plainly because it catches people out: because there is no family on this page, there is nothing here to tell you whether a band for a different utility tank looks similar or fits. It will often look similar. Confirm from the tank rather than from the band, and where a yard has several utility tanks of the same general look, confirm from the tank's part number rather than from its gallons.
What a band does on a utility tank
The duty is in the category, which reads Tank Band, and in the name, which pairs the band with a utility tank. A band is the strap of steel that goes around a tank to hold it in the place it is meant to stay in, and Norwesco sells this one against the 100 gallon utility tank by name. That is the extent of the claim on this record and the extent of the claim on this page. What the band will hold, in what direction, under what conditions and with what hardware are four questions the sheet does not answer: there is no load figure, no restraint figure, no fastener specification and no arrangement drawing anywhere on it. Those belong with the tank's own documentation and with whoever is responsible for how the tank is mounted. The figures this record does give are small and exact, and they are the ones this page has quoted: steel, 30 inches by 1 inch by 24 inches, 5 lb, one band per order line.
Ordering by the each
Most of the difficulty with a part like this is arithmetic at the order stage rather than anything technical. The catalogue sells one band; your tank needs whatever it needs; and the sheet does not join those two facts up, so the count has to be settled before the order goes in rather than discovered when the box is opened. Settle it from the tank's own documentation, or ask our team to read 63552 against your tank's part number. If the tank itself is still an open question, that comes first: the tank sizing calculator and the tank sizing guide are where a utility tank decision is made, and the banding follows the tank rather than leading it. Buying the band first is the wrong order of operations on a part whose only fit statement is a tank name.
Five pounds, a UPS cell, and an LTL mode
The plants on this record are Hanford in California, Griffin in Georgia, Sheldon in Iowa, St. Bonifacius in Minnesota, Washington Court House in Ohio and Shawnee in Oklahoma. The ship-from cell names eight states, and two of them, Mississippi and Texas, do not appear in that plant list; both cells are printed here as the sheet has them and neither is adjusted to match the other. The listed price is before freight, and the freight cost estimator will give you the lane figure against your own ZIP. At receiving, lay the band against something straight. It is 30 inches long and an inch wide at 5 lb, which is exactly the profile of a part that can pick up a kink in a parcel without anybody noticing, and a kinked band is obvious against a straight edge and invisible in a box. Count what came out of the box against what you ordered before the paperwork is filed. Keep one spare gasket for the outlet fitting on the shelf; it is the part that fails on a holiday.
Ships from: Ships with your tank, from the same Norwesco plant.
