Introducing our versatile tanks, designed to cater to a diverse range of applications, including paddling pools, hot tubs, ice baths, planters, dog pools, and ponds. Elevate your experience by customising your tank with optional heaters, vinyl wrapping, and personalised colours, patterns, and text (additional costs apply). For more details on customisation options, please reach out to us.
Crafted with precision, these tanks boast 4-ply locked seams with a secure sealant for durability. The top features a 22mm (0.875in) steel pipe seamlessly rolled into the edge, ensuring a crush-proof finish. The tanks are equipped with a 19mm (0.75in) zinc-coated, threaded plug assembly for convenient drainage.
Constructed from G90 steel, a galvanised variant treated with a chemical process to prevent rusting, these tanks guarantee longevity. Please note that the diameter of the supplied products may vary by approximately 10cm from the specified diameter.
DISCLAIMER: Hastings tanks are primarily designed for agricultural use, specifically for watering livestock, which may result in minor dents or scratches. Sizes may vary by approximately 10cm due to stacking during transportation.
Simply unscrew the plug on the side of tank near the bottom.
This can be removed using a pair of pliers or you can install one of our hose attachments which will allow you to drain the water by turning the tap.
It's really easy to clean our stock tanks. Simply drain the water, then you can either spray around with a hose or wipe with a cloth (or both). Tip the water out the drain and fill it back up again. If the tank is really dirty, you can even use a scrubbing brush, as our tanks are super tough.
For larger tanks that are heavier to lift, we recommend sweeping the water through the drain, or you can place a wood plank underneath to lever the tank upwards. We'll have some videos showing ways to do this soon.
It depends on the size and shape of the tank you choose.
To get to 37 degrees, a 5ft Oval Tank will take around 1.5 hours, whilst the 6ft Oval Tank is around 2 hours.
A 6ft Round Tank will take around 2.5 hours, and a 7ft Round Tank takes around 3 hours.
We recommend keeping the cover/lid on and stirring the tank during heating. Our Cedar Lids are insulated for faster warming times, although we do have other alternative tank covers to choose from such as our Canvas Covers and the Thermal Cover.
We recommend adding chlorine and other sanitising chemicals to the water to keep bacteria and algae levels low. Regularly checking the pH and chlorine levels is essential for safe swimming.
We also recommend keeping a lid/cover on your tank to prevent mosquitoes who are attracted to water. If you wish to have a lid/cover for your tank, you can choose from our Cedar Lids, Canvas Covers and our Thermal Covers.
While you don't need a filter if you maintain and change the water regularly (we recommend every few weeks), you can add one if you wish.
Customise your stock tank with whichever colour you desire and any stickers of your liking.
