Premium metal storage solutions by HK Makine. We fabricate high-durability storage tanks from 1 to 10,000 tons. No low-grade plastics; we specialize strictly in certified Carbon Steel (ST37/ST52), Stainless Steel, and Hot-Dip Galvanized sheet metal to secure your fuel, chemicals, asphalt, and food products globally.

HK Makine designs and manufactures industrial liquid and gas storage infrastructure according to strict API 650, EN 14015, and ASME Section VIII international guidelines.
Our manufacturing focus rejects lightweight plastic or fiberglass products. We utilize high-yield, certified structural metal plates. Depending on the chemical nature and temperature parameters of the medium (such as diesel, corrosive acids, bitumen, or organic oils), our engineering team calculates the optimum steel grade and wall thickness using computer-aided finite element analysis (FEA).
Polyethylene or fiber-reinforced plastic tanks degrade when exposed to harsh chemicals, high temperatures, solar UV radiation, and severe ambient pressure changes. HK Makine's heavy carbon-steel, stainless, and galvanized tanks provide extreme resistance to physical impact, fire, and structural stress for decades.
Every industry dictates discrete technical regulations and storage dynamics. HK Makine integrates custom internal mechanisms and material modifications for each application:
The structural life of your storage tank is dictated by raw material quality. We source certified, mill-tested steel plates exclusively:
The most cost-effective and structurally robust option for diesel, petroleum, bitumen, raw water, and lubricants. For high-pressure gas storage or heavy-duty silos, ST52 or pressure-vessel-grade A516 steel is utilized.
Mandatory for sanitary food storage, pharmaceutical silos, and highly aggressive chemical processing. AISI 304 provides baseline food safety, while low-carbon AISI 316L protects against chloride stress corrosion and acids.
Highly recommended for fire-sprinkler water reservoirs, potable municipal water systems, and agricultural irrigation. The structural plates are zinc-bath coated, promising more than 30 years of rust-free outdoor life.
Every tank departing our factory undergoes strict verification to eliminate weld cracks, structural fatigue, or containment leaks:
Engineers calculate shell plate thickness, base-to-wall reinforcement, and roof wind loads based on API 650 norms using computer models.
Premium metal sheets are cut on high-precision CNC plasma tables, then rolled into cylinder shells using multi-axis rolling mills.
Structural seams are welded using Submerged Arc Welding (SAW) and MIG/MAG robotic systems by fully coded, certified welding engineers.
Seams are examined using dye-penetrant testing, vacuum leak testing, and critical projects undergo full radiographic (X-Ray) testing.
All oxidation and weld scale is removed through Sa 2.5 grade abrasive sandblasting, followed by chemical-resistant epoxy coating.
Fully assembled tanks undergo full-height water fill testing to certify structural integrity and seal perfection under hydrostatic load.
Below are the engineering parameters of our most requested industrial storage tanks. We can customize dimensions, vertical/horizontal layouts, and underground/aboveground configurations to match your facility footprint:
