Material Selection: 304 or 316L Stainless Steel
The 500-gallon tank is available in both 304 and 316L stainless steel. For general applications, 304 stainless steel is an affordable and rust-resistant option, making it suitable for many industries. However, 316L stainless steel, enhanced with molybdenum, offers greater protection in corrosive or saltwater environments, making it ideal for applications involving more corrosive materials or sensitive surroundings.
