MS / Carbon Steel Tanks
Mild steel fabrication with protective treatment, for cost-sensitive duty.
Overview
Mild steel remains the right answer for plenty of storage duties — non-potable water, industrial process service, large volumes where stainless is hard to justify.
What makes it work is the treatment: surface preparation, internal coating where required, and an external finish that survives the environment it sits in. We build MS tanks with that treatment specified rather than assumed.
Specification at a glance
- Capacity200 to 20,000 litres as standard. Larger capacities built to order.
- OrientationVertical or horizontal
- InsulationOptional, specified per duty.
- ConnectionsNozzle schedule, sizes and positions built to your drawing
- FinishMill, brushed, polished or clad, specified per order
- TestingScope agreed at order stage and recorded
Dimensions, thicknesses and ratings are confirmed at engineering stage against your duty. We do not publish generic figures.

Key features
- Surface preparation and coating specified for the medium and environment
- Internal treatment where the stored medium requires it
- External finish selected for indoor, outdoor or corrosive siting
- Heavier plate sections for large-volume storage
- Structural supports and saddles engineered for the loaded weight
- Cost-effective route for non-potable and industrial duty
What we can change
- Epoxy or specialist internal coating
- Galvanised construction for outdoor exposure
- Insulated and clad versions
- Custom structural support frames
- Large-diameter horizontal configurations
Materials
- MS / carbon steel

Where it is used
Typical applications for this tank type. Suitability for your specific duty is confirmed before we quote.
Technical datasheet. A downloadable datasheet is published here once an approved PDF exists for this product. In the meantime, tell us your duty and we will send written specifications for your case.

Common questions
Generally not without qualified internal treatment. For potable duty we would normally point you to stainless, and we will say so.
It depends almost entirely on the internal and external treatment and the environment. Tell us the site conditions and we will recommend the specification.
Galvanised for general outdoor exposure, coated where the medium needs a specific internal barrier.
Yes, insulated and clad the same way as stainless tanks.
