40 Gal. Tanks | McMaster-Carr

No need for separate spill-control pallets or trays—comply with EPA regulations for storing hazardous liquids with just one tank. These tanks have two walls, so if the primary compartment ruptures, the secondary one will contain the leak. It can hold 110% of the primary tank's volume and will also protect it from damage in case of impact.

Made of polyethylene, these tanks can store a broader range of chemicals than steel double-wall tanks. The plastic contains UV inhibitors so they can be used outside.

These tanks have a flat space on top where you can mount a metering pump. Because these tanks meet NSF/ANSI 61 for drinking water, you can meter chemicals stored in them into your drinking water system.

Sanitary Stainless Steel Drums

Store food, beverage, and pharmaceutical products in these drums, which have a sanitary design. Smooth, welded seams and a polished, seamless interior prevent product buildup and bacteria growth. Their EPDM rubber seal is FDA compliant for direct contact with food. Because they’re made of 316 stainless steel, these drums are also corrosion resistant.

To help you clean around and underneath these drums, these drums have a raised bottom. They’re also stackable to save space in your facility.

Hydraulic Tanks

Store fluids for a hydraulic power unit or circulating-oil system. Choose a tank capacity about three times greater than your requirement to allow for heat dissipation. Tanks with only a drain connection require you to drill your own inlet/outlet connection and add pipe suction flanges (sold separately). Flanges seal pipes that pass through the top plate of your tank.

Dual chamber tanks have a divider that allows particles to settle on one side before fluid is returned to your line.

Breather vents prevent excess pressure in tanks and allow a free flow of air. To install the breather vent to Style C tanks, drill a hole in the tank.

Expansion Tanks for Water

Use these tanks to accommodate the expansion of heated water and provide a cushion of compressed air in closed water-heating systems. They prevent water loss by eliminating the need to expel hot water from systems during each heating cycle.

Galvanized steel tanks are hot-dipped for maximum corrosion resistance.
