ABSTRACT:
A sealing system for a cylindrical liquid floating roof storage tank includes a primary seal and a secondary seal mounted on a rim extending upwardly from a floating roof. The system for mounting the seals to the floating roof includes a bolt, a retainer for securing the primary seal to the rim, and a nut for securing the secondary seal to the rim, wherein installation or removal or the secondary seal does not compromise the primary seal connection.
