Why choose a Grade 304 stainless steel water tank?
Simple. Everyone needs access to safe drinking water. Grade 304 stainless steel is the same grade used in your kitchen sink – so you know it’s designed for safe water storage and provides a reliable way to ensure your water supply. Whether you need a rainwater tank for your home, garden, farm or industrial site, or for commercial use, Stainless Steel Tanks can help.
What is Grade 304 stainless steel?
One of the most common stainless steel alloys in terms of strength and versatility, Grade 304 stainless steel comprises 18 per cent chromium and eight per cent nickel. This combination provides excellent corrosion protection – meaning your water tank withstands rust and your water storage remains uncontaminated.
This in-built anti-rust protection is also non-reactive, making Grade 304 stainless steel water tanks the ideal choice for ongoing safe water storage for a range of applications.
At Stainless Steel Tanks, we know our rainwater tanks are built to last. Stainless steel is not only highly durable, but also 100 per cent recyclable – making it the environmentally friendly choice compared to concrete or plastic tanks.
In fact, we’re so confident in the quality of our tanks we offer our customers a 10-year warranty on stainless steel water tanks.

Is there anything 304 stainless steel water tanks aren’t suitable for?
While a 304 stainless steel water tank is suitable for most drinking water and water storage needs, it can be susceptible to chloride corrosion. If you live in a coastal area, or require water storage in a marine environment, a Grade 316 stainless steel water tank is the better fit.
