Rectangular Plastic Tanks

A Durable & Versatile Rectangular Liquid Storage Tank

An open top tank earns its place when the work happens from above: manual filling, dip processing, batch mixing, or frequent sampling. Give that same tank a rectangular footprint and it also fits where round tanks waste space, sitting flush against walls, under benches, and in line on a process floor. A Plastic Rectangular Tank handles corrosive chemicals as well as potable water, with optional lids for batches that need to be covered. This guide explains when an open-top or rectangular design fits the job, which cover and support options matter, and how to pick the right size for your process.

When an Open Top Tank Fits the Process

Choose an open top design when the process needs regular access from above. Plating and finishing lines dip racks of parts directly into the liquid. Batch operations add ingredients by hand, check progress visually, and pull samples without breaking down fittings. Transfer and rinse stations fill and empty quickly without pumps fighting a sealed lid. If the liquid needs protection from dust, splash, or evaporation between uses, a bolted, standard, or hinged cover closes the same tank without giving up top access.

A rectangular tank is the right footprint when floor space is the constraint. Flat sides sit tight against walls and equipment, and a row of rectangular tanks packs into a line with no wasted gaps between them. These tanks are one part of a larger industrial & chemical storage lineup, so if your process calls for sealed storage, mixing, or containment instead, the hub covers the full range.

Features and benefits

Every feature on these tanks maps to something you feel in daily use. Three cover options, Bolted (E), Standard (F), and Hinged (H), let you match the lid to how often the tank gets opened: bolt it down for long storage, lift it off for occasional access, or flip it open dozens of times a shift. Heavy walls keep the tank rigid when it is brimful, so sidewalls do not bow against frames or neighboring equipment. Straight sides do two jobs at once: they deliver full working volume from a minimal footprint, and they give brackets, stands, and frames a flat surface to bear against. And because the resin resists impact, chemicals, and temperature swings, the same tank moves between duties as your process changes.
