Openings are added toward the ends of construction for the filler neck, the fluid-level sending unit, the drain and the fuel pickup. Sometimes these holes are added once the fabrication method is finish, other times they are made on the flat shell.

The ends and the baffles are then riveted in position. Normally, the rivet heads are soldered or brazed in order to avoid tank leakage. Ends could afterward be hemmed in and flanged and brazed, or soldered, or sealed making use of an epoxy type of sealant, or the ends can likewise be flanged and after that welded.
