Dura-Tech fiberglass horizontal saddle tanks are built for industrial storage and process applications where strength, stability, corrosion resistance, and efficient horizontal placement are important. These tanks are a strong fit for facilities that need dependable above-ground storage but may not have the height clearance or layout for a vertical tank.
Each horizontal saddle tank is designed with domed ends to help distribute weight evenly across the tank body. The tank rests in foam-filled fiberglass cradles, providing stable support while maintaining the benefits of lightweight fiberglass construction.
All Dura-Tech fiberglass tanks are rust-proof, lightweight, and extremely durable. They are manufactured using premium resin with a combination of fiberglass chopped strand and woven glass products. This makes them well suited for demanding industrial environments where corrosion, moisture, chemicals, temperature, and long-term maintenance costs need to be considered.
Dura-Tech offers horizontal saddle tanks in standard sizes, with 6′ diameter and 8′ diameter models available in a range of lengths and capacities. Tanks can also be built or configured to suit project-specific requirements, including fittings, manways, access points, heating, site gauges, ladders, platforms, insulation, and installation needs.
These tanks are easy to transport, and Dura-Tech can also deliver and install them for you. Tanks can be tested before and after installation, giving your team confidence that the product is ready for service.

Why fiberglass horizontal saddle tanks?
Fiberglass is a practical material for horizontal storage tanks because it is corrosion-resistant, rust-proof, and lightweight compared to many traditional tank materials. For industrial environments, this can reduce maintenance requirements and support long-term tank performance.
Horizontal saddle tanks are especially useful when a facility needs significant storage capacity without the height of a vertical tank. Their low-profile layout can make them easier to place in certain buildings, yards, process areas, or equipment layouts, while the saddle cradle design provides stable above-ground support.
Dura-Tech offers accessories for both aquaculture and industrial fiberglass tanks, including covers, fittings, sumps, insulation, manways, vents, heating systems, ladders, platforms, gauges, and custom components.
