<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Does anyone have a recommendation for a vendor/manufacturer in the U.S. for steel specimen tanks? Our institution has always used Steel Fixture Manufacturing Company in Topeka, Kansas, but we have been unable to get a response for purchasing
despite many months of trying to reach someone. We need a tank that will hold ~70 gallons of ethanol. Thanks!<o:p></o:p></p>
