Glass-Fused-to-Steel Tanks
Glass Fused To Steel Tank
Glass-Fused-to-Steel technology is the premium coating technology in the storage tanks market. Glass Fused to Steel tanks are widely used in bio-energy, municipal sewage, industrial wastewater treatment and etc.. The glass fused to steel tanks have at least two layers of coating and more than two-time fired in furnace, which combines the strength, flexibility and outstanding corrosion resistance.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Glass Fused to Steel Tanks Introduction
Glass Fused to Steel Tanks is made of glass fused to steel plate, special sealing material, self-locking screw and other materials. The thickness of enamel steel plate can reach to 20 mm, the most used steel plate thickness is 3~10 mm, steel plate has surface oil, contain rust, contain oxide skin, after shot blasting, sand and other pretreatment process, the steel plate surface will be clean. After 900 ℃ high temperature second enamelingl in electric furnace, 0.3 mm enamel coating is applied on both sides of steel plate. strong binding force between enamel coating and steel plate. Enamel coating can not only prevent tank corrosion, but also has the function of strong acid and alkali resistance. And has extremely strong wear resistance.
Advantage of Glass Fused to Steel Tanks
GFS is lined with glass enamel both inside and outside. The enamel is a strong, smooth and shiny silicate coating. It is melted in a special furnace with a temperature range of 780 to 900 degrees Celsius. The steel circular (cylindrical) shell of the tank is made of two layers of glass fused sheets, coated on both sides. These plates are fixed with special high-grade bolts and sealed by a continuous flexible silicone (sealant).
Glass Fused to Steel Tanks are popular because of their durability and long service life. Fused coatings are suitable for any application, but they are particularly effective in retaining corrosive liquids (such as wastewater and landfill leachate) because the coatings can withstand chemical attack that can damage and degrade other types of storage tanks. GFS storage tanks never need to be repainted, no matter what is stored in it, they can be cleaned with an electric washing machine and almost no maintenance is required.
The connecting materials and housing accessories are all surface-treated. Glass fused to steel tanks can be used to store fluids or lost materials. The characteristic of these storage tanks is that they have been approved for use as industrial storage tanks. GFS/GLS tanks are also the basic building elements of environmental technology facilities, such as wastewater treatment, fire-fighting water storage, and anaerobic digestion tanks.
Strong technical service support from Wansheng will also be guaranteed.

GFS bolted tank
GFS bolted tank （also known as GFS tank) is made of glass fused to steel plate, special sealing material, self-locking screw and other materials.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
GFS bolted tank （also known as GFS tank) is made of glass fused to steel plate, special sealing material, self-locking screw and other materials. The thickness of enamel steel plate can reach to 20 mm, the most used steel plate thickness is 3~13 mm, steel plate has surface oil, contain rust, contain oxide skin, after shot blasting, sand and other pretreatment process, the steel plate surface will be clean. After 900 ℃high temperature second enamelingl in electric furnace ,0.3 mm enamel coating is applied on both sides of steel plate. strong binding force between enamel coating and steel plate. Enamel coating can not only prevent tank corrosion, but also has the function of strong acid and alkali resistance. And has extremely strong wear resistance.

Why is bolted steel tank a better solution for liquid storage?
Stainless steel is a high-quality material and is considered by most industries to manufacture storage tanks. The first is because of its flexibility and quality to prevent corrosion, which makes it an ideal choice for storing hazardous materials. Another reason for its popularity is its ability to withstand extreme temperature and weather conditions.
The bolted steel tank structure is generally a bolted steel tank constructed with a drum-shaped hollow structure, in which stainless steel bolts and high-quality bolts are used for the thin wall. The structure is not limited to one shape and one size, it can be different according to your needs. They may range from small gallons to industrial-grade storage tanks. Stainless steel tanks are arranged horizontally or vertically according to your requirements and the nature of the stored materials. The shape of most stainless steel tanks depends largely on the materials stored and the space designated to contain them.
Various Applications
Bolted tanks are the ideal solution for many commercial, industrial and municipal applications. Use the correct finishes, pads and materials, they are suitable for:
Store many types of liquids for manufacturing, industrial or commercial use.
Store drinking water (drinking water) for municipal and any public water supply. Our AWWA-approved lining ensures that water does not touch the metal.
Store large quantities of bulk materials and dry goods to meet commercial or industrial needs.
Ideal for wastewater, fire fighting, biosolids, sludge, etc.
