Receive a credit REBATE when you exchange your old slip tube gauges for new environmentally-friendly magnetic style guages.*

MGM Slip Tube Gauges have been around for over 60 years and many of them are still in service on LPG tank cars today! But let's face it, 'times are changing', and so is our tank car industry. Since slip tube gauges were intentionally designed to discharge a small portion of the commodity being loaded into tanks, current environmental concerns mandated industry's review of their continued use.

Potential AAR regulations regarding the continued qualification of railroad tank cars will definitely impact the long term use of slip tube gauges in the future.  

In response to the above, MGM Tank Car Co. has continued to work with our customers and tank car regulatory agencies to protect the environment and plan for the future! While slip tube gauge replacement parts will remain available from MGM for the long term, installation of new slip tube gauging device assemblies on tank cars may be restricted.

As a result of these efforts, MGM Tank Car Co. is pleased to announce our unique and customer friendly Slip Tube Exchange Program (S.T.E.P.) that makes it easier than ever before to update your tank car fleet with quality & accurate MGM gauging devices!

Now you can replace your old MGM slip tube style gauging device with a new MGM magnetic style gauging device & receive a credit REBATE* for your company. In addition, you now receive a LIFETIME guarantee (against defects in materials and workmanship) for any new MGM gauging device you purchase!

Don't have any MGM slip tube gauges? Just need a new tank car level gauge?

Contact MGM Tank Car Co. for information on our magnetic style level gauges or if you prefer, ask us about our new remote readout, electronic style gauging device technology!

Either way, feel free to contact MGM Tank Car Co. for the very latest changes in MGM people & technology. You'll be glad you did, and so will your company!

*Credit rebate depends on the quantity & condition of the old slip tube gauges returned to MGM.
