The Snyder Industries 2000 Gallon Vertical Liquid Storage Tank (SKU 5050300C137) is a white, high density linear polyethylene tank for bulk liquid storage. The pack of numbers that matters: 2000 gallons, a 96" x 96" footprint, 84" overall height, and a 1.5 specific gravity rating. It ships without a fitting installed, so the outlet is yours to plan, and it ships LTL from California.
Specifications that decide the purchase
Capacity is 2000 gallons on a 96.0 x 96.0 inch footprint at 84" height — a low-profile choice where overhead clearance is tight. Empty weight is roughly 300 lb, light enough to position on site before filling. Full of water it loads its pad at about 16,680 lb; at the full 1.5 specific gravity rating, contents can weigh up to 25,020 lb — pour a level, load-rated pad sized to the 96" x 96" footprint before delivery arrives. An 18" lid provides top access, and Snyder lists certifications 2285 and 2282 for this tank. Confirm placement against the technical drawing on this page before you pour the pad.
The service envelope: density and temperature together
Two limits define what this tank can hold. The 1.5 specific gravity rating covers liquids up to roughly one and a half times the density of water — real margin beyond plain water duty, backed by that 25,020 lb maximum contents weight. The second limit is temperature: maximum service temperature is 120 F / 48 C, which rules out hot process liquids and heated contents in high-sun installations. If your stored liquid is anything other than ambient-temperature water, check both numbers first — or call 866-418-1777 and we will confirm fitness for your service.
No fitting installed — settle the outlet plan first
This tank ships with no fitting. That is a feature, not an omission: you install the bulkhead fitting exactly where your plumbing needs it, in the size and material matched to your stored liquid, instead of working around a factory outlet. The mistake to avoid is ordering pumps, valves, and pipe before deciding fitting size and placement. Specify your bulkhead size and gasket material when you order so the tank and fitting arrive together and installation happens in one pass.
