Overview

Sukup Airways® Air Tube systems are designed to significantly enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of grain aeration during grain storage. Recognizing the importance of proper aeration in grain handling and storage, these systems are developed to maintain the quality and longevity of stored grain by working to remove the water from the wall.

Airways® Air Tubes are a system of perforated triangular-shaped steel tubes that pipe drying air along the bin wall. The tubes are designed to promote even airflow and remove condensation along the sidewall. Airways® work like the defroster on a car, piping warm air where it is needed to remove moisture. This is achieved by the unique construction of the tubes, which provide more ventilation than competing tubes with round sleeves in the opening.

Sukup Airways® systems provide top-tier grain handling solutions for agricultural producers. They play a vital role in promoting effective aeration helping to preserve grain quality and value.

Standard Features

  • Perforated, triangular tubes provide more ventilation than competing tubes with round sleeves in the opening
  • Airways® AirTubes direct dry air along the inside of the bin wall to remove moisture from condensation
  • To “meter” the airflow up the bin wall, AirwayTubes are punched with small slots at predetermined intervals
  • In a 24’ bin with grain 12’ deep, you will lose 240 bu of grain with just 4” of bin wall spoilage (300 bu in a 30’ bin; 360 bu in a 36’ bin)
  • In addition to the money lost, spoiled grain sticks to the bin wall, damaging the galvanization and adding stress that could collapse a bin
