FAQs About Stainless Steel Bolted Tanks

Compare our tank types to find the best solution for your specific application requirements

For atmospheric storage designed to AWWA/API, bolted tanks meet the same loads (hydrostatic, wind, seismic). Welded tanks are preferred for pressure service or extreme temperatures. Strength depends on code, thickness, and detailing - not the joint type alone.
Absolutely - tanks are custom-engineered for your application with options in materials, coatings, roof styles, appurtenances, and accessories.
Yes - we provide individually engineered tanks in virtually any required volume/footprint to fit your site and process needs.
Properly designed and erected, no. Gasketed seams, controlled bolt torque, quality coatings/liners, and hydrostatic testing deliver tightness. Periodic inspections and gasket replacement maintain long-term performance.
By protective systems: factory powder/glass-fused/epoxy linings, galvanizing, sealants, cathodic protection (anodes), edge protection, and rigorous surface prep. Regular inspection and timely touch-ups keep steel protected for decades.
