China New 20ft Square Liquid Container Pricelist, Products

The tank of a square liquid container is in the shape of a cuboid. This shape has advantages in space utilization and can be placed closely together. Whether it is transported on a ship, train or truck, it can make more efficient use of the transportation space. Compared with a round tank, it can hold more liquid under the same external dimensions.

Product Description

Product Introduction

The frame of a square liquid container is generally made of high-strength steel to support and protect the tank. The corners of the frame are usually reinforced to withstand various external forces during transportation. Some reinforcing ribs are set around the frame and on the top and bottom to enhance the overall strength of the frame and prevent the tank from deforming. The corner fittings at the four corners are key parts for connecting with other containers or transportation equipment. They meet international standard sizes and are easy to load, unload and store.
The internal tank is usually made of high-quality metal materials, such as stainless steel or carbon steel lined with anti-corrosion materials. Bottom loading and unloading is safer for volatile, flammable, explosive or toxic liquids. Its loading and unloading port is located at the bottom of the tank and is connected to the external loading and unloading equipment through a special piping system. During loading and unloading, liquids can enter and exit at a lower position, reducing the risk of liquid splashing and volatilization. For example, when transporting liquids such as gasoline, bottom loading and unloading can better control the flow of liquids and reduce safety hazards.

Key Advantages

Efficient space utilization

The square shape allows for tighter arrangement in transport vehicles (such as ships and train carriages), improving transportation efficiency. For example, on container ships, square liquid containers can be neatly stacked to maximize the use of cabin space, and can transport a certain proportion more liquid cargo than round liquid tank containers.

Good stability

During transportation, the center of gravity of square liquid containers is relatively low, especially when filled with liquid. Since the liquid is evenly distributed in the square tank, the container has better stability during vehicle driving and ship navigation, reducing the risk of liquid leakage or container overturning due to shaking and tilting.

Convenient storage and stacking

Square liquid containers are easy to stack and store in places such as port terminals and logistics warehouses. They can be stacked in multiple layers like ordinary dry cargo containers, saving storage space and facilitating management and scheduling.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q How to choose between tank containers and square liquid containers?

It depends on whether the liquid being transported is ordinary liquid. Square liquid containers can transport these ordinary low-pressure liquids, and the cost is lower than that of tank containers, the capacity is larger, and it is easy to maintain.

Q What is the service life of a square liquid container?

If the material is excellent, it can be used for 10-20 years without any problems.

Q What materials are used for the frame and internal tank structure?

The frame is constructed with high-strength steel featuring reinforced corners and ribs to prevent deformation. The internal tank is manufactured using high-quality metal materials such as stainless steel or carbon steel lined with anti-corrosion materials.

Q Why is bottom loading and unloading safer for hazardous or volatile liquids?

The loading and unloading port is situated at the bottom connected via a dedicated piping system. This allows liquids like gasoline to enter and exit at a lower level, significantly controlling flow and minimizing the risk of splashing, volatilization, and associated safety hazards.

Q How does the square design improve cargo volume compared to round tank containers?

The square geometry allows containers to be arranged and stacked more tightly inside ships and train cars, eliminating dead space and allowing a higher proportion of liquid cargo to be shipped within the same cabin dimensions.

Q Can square liquid containers be stacked like standard dry cargo containers?

Yes, they are engineered with standard international corner fittings and reinforced structural frames, enabling multi-layer stacking and straightforward handling in port terminals and logistics facilities.
