Full range of accessories
Commercial Wall Sheets
SCAFCO unique 42 ⅔” (1.08 m) galvanized steel wall sheets have a 2 ⅔” pitch and ½” (67.7 mm x 12.7 mm) deep corrugation. Wall sheets are pre-punched in a single stroke operation, assuring accurate hole alignment and uniform fit. Sheets are precision roll-formed using galvanized steel with a minimum of 57 ksi (393 MPa) yield strength.
Side Discharge System
SCAFCO side discharge system allows gravity loadout to trucks or rail cars. Interior flumes channel grain from the top storage level to the discharge chute. Available with 12″ (300 mm) square discharge outlet and rack and pinion gate.
Heavy-duty Stiffeners
SCAFCO heavy-duty stiffeners use 57-ksi yield strength (393 MPa) [65 ksi minimum tensile strength (448 MPa)], hot-dipped galvanized steel. The profile can handle the drawdown of very tall bins and severe seismic loads. Each bin utilizes several stiffener gauges for the most efficient column design.
Heavy-duty stiffeners transfer draw down loads from the sidewalls to the foundation. Stiffener base plate is factory welded to the bottom stiffener, providing durable bin anchorage in order to resist lateral and uplift loads.
Ladder Systems
Complete interior & exterior ladder systems are available with safety cage and rest platforms for sidewall heights above 20’ (6.10 m).
Access Doors
Heavy-duty 23 ½” x 26″ (597 mm x 660 mm) access doors are factory welded into the bin’s wall sheets.
Easy access options include a heavy-duty walk-in door 28″ x 60″ (711 mm x 1524 mm).
Giant Doors
SCAFCO giant doors are designed for drive-in access for small front-end loaders or other equipment.
Two sizes are available:
- 6’ 3 ½” high x 5’ 7 ½” wide (1.92 m x 1.72 m)
- 8’ 0″ high x 6’ 0″ wide (2.44 m x 1.83 m).

Large Bin Designs
SCAFCO is the leader in large bin designs, with capacities in excess of 1.2 million bushels (32,650 MT). Even the largest SCAFCO bins feature a clear span roof, which means that there are no internal roof supports to impede the cleanout of the bin.
SCAFCO roof structures have peak capacities that lead the industry and can be designed to meet any peak load requirements. All roofs feature cold-formed, G-115 coated steel (min. 350 gr/m2 zinc) galvanized support structures, ensuring long life and service without the fear of losing your investment to corrosion. SCAFCO roofs also include corrugated roof panels, adding strength and rigidity to the roof.
All SCAFCO accessories are available on any size bin, including optional roof stairways, interior and exterior ladders, side discharge kits and giant doors for machinery access. SCAFCO also offers various solutions for aeration, including a Quad F-pattern aeration system designed for all of the largest bins.
