Our Bolted Tank Manufacturing Services

Tarsco’s in-house manufacturing processes focus on ultraprecise products that comply with regulations and meet timelines consistently.

Design & Engineering

Structural Analysis

Tanks at Tarsco start with high-quality carbon steel of ASTM 36, with thickness ranging from 3/32″ (12 ga) to 1/2″. We analyze snow, wind, and seismic loading conditions.

Custom Foundation

Bolted steel tank manufacturing includes custom stored material, building codes, and site conditions. We use standard 5 × 10 ft (1.52 × 3 m) panels and install without cranes, within confined spaces.

Capacity Range

Tarsco manufacturing designs range from 2,100 gallons to 5 million gallons in capacity. We offer compact packing in racks, wooden crates, and pallets, with hardware shipped in secure buckets for safe handling. We also offer steel tank accessories for existing and new tanks.

Long service life

As bolted steel tank manufacturers, we offer a service life of up to 40 years. The cost-effective tanks are erected from the ground with a jacking system, enhancing safety.

Materials & Construction

Precision manufacturing & quality assurance

Our manufacturing uses precision modular methods as per client specifications and industry standards. We follow ASTM, AWWA, NSF, FDA, NFPA, and FM standards.

Certified bolting systems & gasket materials

As a global bolted storage tanks manufacturer, we use di-chromate-coated Grade 8 bolts, nuts, and washers for corrosion resistance. Polycapped head bolts provide additional protection against corrosion. Sealants, like Manus Bond and various gaskets, are available.

Optional protective finishes

Get an interior basecoat thickness of 7 mils DFT, an exterior coat of 2-4 mils DFT, and 2-3 mils DFT polyester finishes. White, tan, forest green, environmental green, cobalt blue, and Caribbean blue are the standard colors.

Coatings & Finishes

We provide factory-finished, thermal fusion-bonded powder coating. The epoxy powder coating is electrostatically applied, with extremely low emissions in an eco-friendly factory-controlled production environment.
