empty?
The empty weight of a 100 cubic foot steel SCUBA tank is approximately 33lbs.
a tank is about 1000 pounds on weight
What happened to the answer to my question?
the temperature would be 50 degrees
steel because of the sheer amount of mass in the steel it is an obvious winImproved AnswerIt depends on the tank size, but in general steel is lighter out of the water. This is because steel is stronger than aluminum and you don't need as much metal to hold the pressure. If you put a steel tank next to an aluminum you will notice the steel is a smaller size for size even though it holds the same amount of gas. The aluminum tank is larger since it needs more metal to hold the pressure and thus is heavier. But steel is also more negative in the water so you can take some weight off your weight belt too.
one thousand gallons will not float
An 18000-gallon steel tank can weigh anywhere from 11000kg to 15000kg depending on the specific size and design of the tank. The weight of a steel tank is largely determined by its capacity wall thickness and overall dimensions. Some additional factors that can influence the weight of a steel tank are the specific gravity of the liquid it holds the number of heads and fittings and the type of coating or insulation.

Generally speaking larger tanks will weigh more and tanks with thicker walls and more intricate head and fitting designs will also weigh more.
Depends, What kind of Metal is It? How thick is the metal.
Standard 20 gallon tank was steel and 36 gallon tank was fiberglass.
You can't use steel to make a hot water tank because steel can rust.
A honey tank is a stainless steel tank... By: Alijon Toshimov
That will depend on the capacity of the tank and the gauge of the steel used to make it.
