The 1500 Gallon Vertical Liquid Storage Tank from Norwesco (part N-41505) is a Natural White polyethylene vertical tank measuring 93 inches in diameter and 60 inches tall, built for bulk water and liquid storage where you need real capacity without a tall footprint. That low-profile 60-inch height is the defining tradeoff against the 116-inch-tall 1,500-gallon Norwesco options: same gallons, but this wide stance fits anywhere overhead clearance is tight and floor space is open. With a 1.5 specific gravity rating, this tank is engineered to hold liquids heavier than water, giving you headroom on the spec sheet rather than running it at the edge.
Will this tank work for your job?
Capacity is a nominal 1,500 gallons in a vertical storage tank format. Filled with plain water, the contents alone weigh roughly 12,510 pounds, and at the tank's full 1.5 specific gravity rating it is rated to carry up to 18,765 pounds of contents. That 1.5 rating is the reason a water buyer should not down-spec to a "water-only" tank: the same model covers heavier-than-water liquids without changing units, so if your future contents are uncertain, the headroom is already built in. Use the Tank Sizing Calculator and the Tank Sizing Guide to confirm volume and weight against your application before you commit, especially if you are weighing this 93" x 60" model against the taller 64" x 116" 1,500-gallon Norwesco configurations.
How it ships
This is a large vertical tank, so it moves by LTL freight rather than parcel. It ships from the Norwesco plant in Burnet, TX, and freight is quoted live to your ZIP code based on the nearest origin. Get an exact number with the Freight Cost Estimator or call us at 866-418-1777 and we will work the quote with you. Plan to offload with a forklift or equipment sized to the 93-inch-diameter footprint, since even empty this is a bulky, oversized unit.
The mistake to avoid
The most common error on a wide vertical tank like this is the foundation. The 1.5 specific gravity rating tells you the polyethylene wall can handle a denser liquid, but the rating means nothing if the base flexes or settles. Build a flat, continuous, fully supporting pad rated for the full 18,765-pound worst-case loaded weight before you fill, even though your plain-water load is closer to 12,510 pounds, and size that pad to the 93-inch-diameter footprint with support under the entire bottom. This listing publishes no inlet or outlet fitting spec, so confirm fitting size and location from the technical drawing on this page before you buy gaskets or bulkhead fittings. And confirm your intended liquid is compatible with polyethylene at this specific gravity before filling anything other than water.
