A 175 gallon 30 degree cone bottom tank with its poly stand
The Norwesco 175 gallon 30 degree cone bottom tank with poly stand, part number 60113, is a natural white polyethylene tank 43 inches in diameter that stands 49 inches tall on the stand it comes with, and weighs 97 lb as a pair. The stand is the part that usually has to be matched by angle and diameter and ordered separately; here it arrives with the tank, so what comes off the truck is ready to set down, level and plumb. The 30 degree cone drains from a point without the height a steeper cone costs, and the 49 inch overall height keeps the 16 inch threaded vented manway within reach without a step. The outlet is a 2 inch polypropylene female NPT bulkhead fitting at the point of the cone. The tank is rated for liquids up to 1.5 specific gravity, which covers water, liquid fertilizer and the common farm and treatment chemicals polyethylene handles. Water weighs 8.34 lb per gallon, so plan the floor for a full tank. The resin is FDA compliant per Norwesco, the service limit is 120 F, and Norwesco backs it with a 3 year warranty.

What a 175 gallon cone on a stand is for
This is a batching and dispensing tank for a room, a barn or a shop: a fertilizer blend mixed and drawn off through a day, a treatment chemical made up and metered out, a wash or feed solution held where it is used. The cone sends the last of the batch and any sediment to the outlet, so the tank changes duty without being scraped out. A 30 degree cone is the middle choice: it drains cleaner than a 15 degree storage cone and stays shorter than a 45 degree mixing cone. The 175 gallon 30 degree cone bottom tank with poly stand buyer's guide covers how this tank is used and set up.
What goes in it
Water, liquid fertilizer and the common farm and treatment chemicals are the normal loads. Check anything else in our chemical compatibility guide before the first fill; urea solution, calcium chloride, aluminum sulfate, sodium carbonate and acetic acid are the entries cone tank buyers open most. Liquids heavier than 1.5 times water need a heavier rated tank. Keep the contents under 120 F. Size the batch with the tank sizing calculator and the tank sizing guide.
Openings, fittings and what to check before you buy
- Outlet. A 2 inch polypropylene female NPT bulkhead fitting at the point of the cone. A ball valve threads straight in. Fit it before the first fill and support the valve and the first length of pipe so the fitting carries liquid, not hardware.
- Manway. A 16 inch threaded vented manway on top, for bags, a mixer shaft and a cleaning brush.
- Footprint and floor. Forty-three inches across. The stand needs a flat, level, continuous floor under all of it, with no drain, joint or slope beneath. Check it with a level across both diagonals before the first fill; a full tank is a concentrated load of close to three quarters of a ton with water in it.
- Clearance under the outlet. Measure the valve, hose or container you will draw into before you order, and the doorway the assembly goes through.
- The drawing. Norwesco's drawing for this tank and stand is linked on this page under Technical Drawing, with the outlet position and the cone geometry.
