  • Patent number: 4562934
    Abstract: A corrosion-resistant gasket or at least a portion thereof on the inner side of the joint between two tank halves having corrosion-resistant liners protects the non-corrosion-resistant structural walls at the inner ends of the tank halves and also the non-corrosion-resistant external lay-up. The gasket can be applied from outside the tank during assembly of the tank halves, and the need for a manway to apply a corrosion-resistant internal lay-up is eliminated.
