Feed silo

The bottom of our 6ton EB silo has rusted out, I need to buy/make a replacement. Any ideas?

I got a 3.5ton Rob Lew silo new at small money, they are well built and good value

Can you not just buy a new ring from EB to go on the bottom? It looks like it bolts on as a separate component in your pictures.

Assuming the rest of the bin is sound of course.

Speak to EB about parts.
Though once they start rotting it`s often best to start afresh with a new one

Hi, cannot get new part because they stopped making them 20 yrs ago. mine is galvanised and the new ones are composite. they quoted nearly £400 to make one .

Best put your £ 400 towards a new bin IMO

Buy a new one man. It owes you nothing!

Grind out the bolts/rivets, take the parts to a local engineer, the bin looks in fair shape.

I personally really like the Collision Tristor, we have 3. EB bins probably just as good. I’d stay clear of the cheaper brands.
