Cylindrical Bolted Steel Water Tanks | AWWA D103 & FM Compliant

What Is a Cylindrical Bolted Steel Water Tank?

Cylindrical bolted steel tanks are modular water storage systems designed for large-capacity industrial, municipal and fire protection projects.

Thanks to their circular geometry, internal pressure is distributed uniformly, providing superior structural stability compared to rectangular systems.

Tetra Elektromekanik supplies Meksis-manufactured tanks with full engineering support.

Key Engineering Advantages

Uniform Pressure Distribution

Circular structure eliminates corner stress concentrations.

High Structural Stability

Ideal for high-volume water storage applications.
