Hot Dip Galvanized Panel Tanks
Hot-Dipped Galvanized Panel Tanks
For decades, hot-dipped galvanized steel has been the industry standard for commercial storage tanks. This proven method involves coating steel with a protective zinc layer to prevent rust and corrosion.
At Tank Inspections Vegas by American Tanks, we’ve been a leading supplier of hot-dipped galvanized steel tanks to American businesses for many years. We offer a wide variety of round and square tanks to suit your specific needs, along with a comprehensive selection of compatible liner membranes and waterproofing products.
Our team has extensive experience collaborating with clients across diverse industries, from agriculture to food processing. We understand your storage needs and can provide expert advice to ensure you get the right tank solution for your project.
The Transformation of HDG Storage Tanks
Standard steel gets a major upgrade in the Hot-Dipped Galvanized (HDG) process. Here’s the key step: the steel takes a dip in a molten zinc bath. During this dip, the zinc reacts with the iron in the steel, forming a special alloy coating.
The resulting zinc-coated steel is formed into large sheets. These sheets are then precisely cut into individual panels, ready to be assembled on-site
Now comes the exciting part: building your tank! The pre-cut panels become the building blocks. Imagine giant Lego pieces – they’re securely fastened together with bolts at the installation site to create the desired size and shape of your tank.

Smart Choice for Long-Term Value
Hot-dipped galvanized tanks offer a significant advantage when it comes to maintenance expenses compared to other steel tanks. Unlike epoxy-coated or painted tanks that require frequent reapplication, HDG tanks boast a long-lasting zinc coating that eliminates the need for re-treatment throughout their service life, saving you money in the long run.
The Value of New Tank Investments
Selecting the right commercial storage tanks is critical. With Tank Inspections Vegas by American Tanks, you can rely on our expert team to steer you in the right direction and suggest our hot-dipped galvanized options when appropriate.
Galvanized tanks come with extra protective coatings, greatly extending the lifespan of your assets. HDG tanks also offer excellent value and quality without the hefty price tag of stainless steel. Additionally, hot-dipped galvanization complements tanks intended for painting. Combining these coatings could potentially double the original lifespan of a standard bare steel tank.
Considering long-term solutions through a thorough cost-benefit analysis is crucial for securing the most suitable tank investment aligned with your business objectives.
Marine-Grade Durability
In coastal regions, especially those adjacent to the ocean or saltwater bodies like bays and canals, the durability of your tanks can be significantly influenced. The sea spray carried by the wind and direct exposure to saltwater can rapidly corrode tank surfaces, particularly those lacking galvanization. It’s essential to evaluate how far salt spray travels from the shoreline to accurately assess the potential level of saltwater exposure your tanks might encounter.
Climate conditions vary across America, so it’s important to comprehend how your tank’s material reacts to different temperatures, levels of UV radiation, and other weather factors.
Hot-dipped galvanized steel tanks typically endure for 10-12 years in marine environments, even when their external surfaces are directly exposed to water.
Several key factors ultimately determine your tank’s lifespan, all of which our HDG tanks are engineered to withstand for many years, including:
- Atmospheric salinity.
- Atmospheric sulfur dioxide.
- Temperature.
- Relative humidity.
