Welded galvanized tanks are known for their high resistance to corrosion. These types of galvanized tanks are specifically designed to withstand intense sunlight in hot regions. Despite strong competition from composite and polyethylene tanks, they are still favored for water storage and have their own unique following.
Components of Welded Galvanized Tanks
Welded galvanized tanks, made from steel sheets coated with zinc, perform well in ventilated areas, meeting the needs of industrial, semi-industrial, and domestic centers. The steel sheets used in these tanks are coated with zinc through hot-dip or cold galvanizing processes to protect against corrosion and rust. The thickness of this coating determines the sheet’s resistance to corrosion.
Specifications of Affordable Welded Galvanized Tanks
When manufactured using the hot-dip method, welded galvanized tanks have a thicker zinc coating compared to the cold method, providing higher corrosion resistance and, consequently, a longer lifespan. In highly corrosive environments, these tanks can last between 20 to 30 years. Although they may have lower thermal transfer and corrosion resistance compared to their competitors, the quality of the metal used makes them a suitable choice, and they can be custom-built on-site or in workshops according to required dimensions. In welded types, the water tank is welded on-site, and without the use of chemicals, it safely stores drinking water. Lastly, these tanks are typically ordered in cylindrical, cubic, and trapezoidal shapes.
