Engineering-Grade Carbon Steel Tanks
Professional-grade carbon steel storage solutions for gasoline, diesel, and hazardous liquids. Guaranteed shell integrity with heavy-duty corrosion protection.
Industrial-Grade Fabrication
Carbon steel is the preferred material for industrial fueling due to its exceptional structural integrity and cost-effectiveness. Our tanks are engineered to withstand the harshest environmental conditions.
Premium Steel Stock
We utilize high-grade Q235B and Q345R carbon steel. These materials provide the ideal balance between tensile strength and weldability for high-pressure fuel storage.
Custom Coating Systems
External surfaces are finished with Epoxy Zinc-Rich primers and UV-resistant topcoats. Internal linings can be tailored for aviation fuel, diesel, or crude oil.
Scalable Engineering
From standardized UL 142 horizontal tanks to complex vertical multi-compartment vessels, our carbon steel solutions fit any site footprint or capacity requirement.
Manufacturing Excellence
Precision engineering ensures every tank meets the highest safety standards before dispatch.
- Sa 2.5 Sandblasting: Removes all mill scale and rust for superior coating adhesion.
- Submerged Arc Welding: Delivers uniform, high-penetration weld seams for leak-proof performance.
- Precision Rolling: CNC-controlled plate rolling ensures perfect tank roundness and structural balance.
- NDT Inspection: Every weld undergoes Ultrasonic or Radiographic testing to verify integrity.
Technical Specifications
Horizontal Configuration
- Space Advantage: Lower height, easier to conceal or place indoors.
- Stability: Lower center of gravity, ideal for seismic zones.
- Maintenance: Easier access for top-mounted instruments and manways.
Vertical Configuration
- Space Advantage: Minimal footprint, ideal for crowded industrial sites.
- Hydraulic Head: Naturally provides higher pressure for gravity dispensing.
- Scalability: Optimized for very large volumes up to 150m³.

Safety & Quality Assurance
NDT Weld Inspection
100% Ultrasonic (UT) or Radiographic (RT) testing on all critical load-bearing weld seams to ensure zero structural defects.
Air-Tightness Testing
Every tank undergoes a rigorous pneumatic leak test at 1.5x design pressure to guarantee absolute seal integrity.
Wall Thickness Verification
Digital ultrasonic thickness gauges verify that every steel plate meets or exceeds the UL 142 mandated shell and head thickness.
Coating Spark Test
High-voltage holiday detection on internal/external coatings to ensure a pinhole-free barrier against corrosion.
Standard Safety Configurations
