CARBIS SOLUTIONS Swivel Joints

Multiple Planes Of Rotation For Pipes Or Hoses With Swivels.

Bends in your hoses may seem like a minor problem. However, bends cause rips and tears, which may lead to injuries resulting from slips and falls.

Swivels prevent bends in hoses which can reduce flow or even rip or tear releasing harmful chemicals into the air. They also prove the operator ease use when coupling product lines which will increase throughput and improve ergonomics of the operation.

Sam Carbis Solutions Group, LLC Swivel joints Allow Easy 360 Degree Movement With up to Three Planes of Rotation. Our ball bearing Swivel joints offer many features that provide a dependable long life. All Sam Carbis Solutions Group, LLC swivel joints are 100% penetration welded by certified welders.

CARBIS SOLUTIONS Hose Handlers

Help Eliminate Trips and Falls At Loading Racks

Hoses are often bulky and may create additional workplace hazards. When hoses lay on the ground, your workers are at risk for slips, trips and falls. Hose handlers from Carbis Solutions streamline your operations, ensure quicker turnaround times and reduce the effort needed to maneuver hoses. Additionally, hose handlers improve workplace safety by eliminating workplace hazards and freeing up space on your platforms.

Optimize your process with a hose handler. It will free up space on your platform and diminish many tripping hazards by keeping them off the walking surface, leading to a safer work environment.

Lowering the effort needed to maneuver your hoses to the vehicle will provide you with:

  • Greater efficiency
  • Increased your revenue
  • Less manpower
Now the job that used to require two people to work in a confined area is reduced to just one easy process – leading to an instant savings and fewer falls.

CARBIS SOLUTIONS Bottom Loading Arms

Bottom loading arms offer numerous benefits over conventional top loading

A bottom loading arm on a skid.The safety of the loading arm operator is the prime advantage since they remain on the ground – not on top of the vehicle where falls are a common threat. Connections are made more quickly so overall loading time is reduced.

Bottom loading systems also create less turbulence in the tank, reducing the danger of generating static electricity and can be easily adapted to recover vapors displaced during loading.

A few more benefits of bottom loading arms:

  • Terminal tank truck bottom loading means tanks can be filled faster because a number of compartments can be loaded simultaneously
  • Bottom loading islands are simpler and cheaper to build than top loading racks. You can realize more savings because you’ll safely load more material in a shorter time with less spillage and vapor loss.
  • Improved safety by allowing the operator to remain on the ground during loading/unloading
  • The ability to fill tanks faster since several compartments can be loaded simultaneously





Let Weigh-Tech design the most efficient bottom loading arm for you.

Speed up tank truck loading—tanks can be filled faster when bottom loaded because a number of compartments can be loaded simultaneously.

Custom Solutions Integrated With Your Fall Prevention Equipment

Let Weigh-Tech design the best top loading arms for your application.

The vast majority of chemical loading takes place via the top of the tanker or rail car. With gravity taking care of most of the work, the top fill and bottom drain are simplistic but effective. Any special requirements can then be carried out by the loading arm, either to capture vapor, or to meter the amount of product being dispensed.

At Weigh-Tech, we serve the petroleum, chemical and food industries, providing loading/unloading systems for safe and efficient handling of all types of liquids.


Weigh-Tech provides a variety of Carbis Solutions top loading arms including:

The benefits of Top Loading Arms:

  • Ability to adjust spring in any direction
  • Product compatibility with metals and seals
  • Adaptable to tight-fill or closed system loading
  • Strong swivel/spring capacity allows for longer arm reach
  • Variety of swivel joints provide flexibility and leak-free operation
  • Wide range of motion provides the ability to reach more openings

CARBIS SOLUTIONS Unit Train Telescoping Ramps

Eliminate Gaps Between Platform And Rail Units of Varying Widths

The need of operators to access a variety of vehicles, some of which have non-standard widths, can present safety problems for your facility. The major concern is the gap that often exists between the Truck Gangway or Rail Car Gangway and the vehicle during access procedures.

A Carbis Solutions Telescoping Ramp resolves issues associated with accessing smaller vehicles, since operators just push out the ramp extension and may leave the extension in position to access larger width vehicles as well. The Telescoping Ramp closes gaps during access, and operators can perform their duties in a much safer and faster way.

While it is very common in this industry to use a 12″ cage to augment the existing crash box and satisfy the OSHA 42″ handrail requirement, we recommend not stopping there. The abbreviated cage does not satisfactorily protect the worker from gaps underneath the railing, thus exposing workers to danger. Please give us a call to discuss how to keep your workers safer as they go about their railcar operations.
