Jayco Thief Hatch JT-20.2
Jayco JT-20.2 Super Seal Thief Hatch Overview
The Jayco JT-20.2 Super Seal Thief Hatch is designed for optimum performance in vapor containment with the added benefit of a 20" oblong drip pan. As the official Jayco representative for Western Canada, ZIRCO provides these essential tank access solutions to oil and gas operations throughout Alberta and beyond.
The JT-20.2 works in tandem with vent valves to minimize the escape of light ends of crude in lease storage tanks by maintaining pressure on the tank. The extended 20" oblong drip pan contains drippings effectively and provides operators with a convenient workspace for tools during sampling and gauging operations. The Super Seal technology features a new Blue Viton wrap-around pressure gasket for superior durability and sealing performance, making it ideal for demanding environments and environmental stewardship.
