How to spec yours
Provide the formulation, intended fill, density, temperature and contact duration.
Specify the required opening, closure, seal and discharge connection for the process.
304 and 316 are different material specifications; neither is universally corrosion-proof. Request a drawing and material specification for the proposed vessel.
Review the supplier reference, drawing, documentation, quantities and delivery terms before ordering.
