U.S. imports of aluminum tanks, vats & similar containers over 300 liters (HS 761100) totaled $166K in April 2026, traded with 16 countries.
Last updated: April 2026 dataLarge-capacity aluminum tanks and vats — plain and unfitted, exceeding 300 liters (approximately 79.3 gallons) — serve critical roles in chemical processing, food and beverage production, and industrial fluid storage. Germany and the Netherlands lead US supply under this heading, reflecting European expertise in precision-fabricated industrial vessels. The US schedule distinguishes standard tanks (7611000030) from other containers not elsewhere specified (7611000090), and all aluminum imports remain subject to Section 232 tariff measures.

HTS 761100 covers plain, unfitted containers not designed to withstand internal pressure as a primary function. If a vessel is engineered to hold compressed or liquefied gas under pressure, it would instead fall under HTS 7613. Importers should provide technical specifications — design pressure ratings, wall thickness, and intended use — to support the correct classification, ideally reviewed by a licensed customs broker.
Both countries have well-established industrial fabrication sectors specializing in precision aluminum vessel manufacturing for chemical, pharmaceutical, and food-processing industries. European producers often meet stringent quality and certification standards (such as PED — Pressure Equipment Directive equivalents) that US buyers in regulated industries require, giving them a competitive edge in this specialized segment.
