The 220 Gallon Stackable IBC Tote Tank from Snyder Industries is a 1.9 specific-gravity bulk container molded from high density polyethylene for heavy industrial process fluids, packed into a compact 45 x 45 inch footprint. It holds 220 gallons, stands 48.5 inches tall, and its 1.9 SG rating means it carries fluids substantially heavier than water with no de-rating. The molded color on this unit is spec'd as White (the product title references a red variant; confirm the color you need at 866-418-1777 before ordering). If you have been searching for an IBC tote tank, an HDPE tote, or a stackable tote tank that handles dense chemistry, this is the format that drops onto a standard pallet position while stacking to save floor space.
Will it work for your application?
The numbers tell the story. Filled with water this tote weighs about 1,835 lb, and its maximum rated contents weight is 3,486 lb thanks to the 1.9 SG rating, so it carries dense fluids like concentrated acids and brines that would overload a 1.0 or 1.5 SG tank. The 45.0 x 45.0 inch footprint fits a standard pallet position and the 48.5 inch height keeps it under most doorways and racking. The technical drawing on this page shows the molded-in detail. From the factory the single included fitting is an integrated vent assembly: a 2-inch PE vacuum-relief vent with an EPDM seal, which relieves negative pressure during draw-down. Outlets, valves, and additional fittings and gaskets are matched to your chemistry per the compatibility chart and are not included unless specified. Use the Tank Sizing Calculator and the Tank Sizing Guide to confirm the volume and weight math against your process before you order.
Chemical compatibility
This tote is HDLPE rated to 1.9 specific gravity. Confirm whether your application needs HDLPE or XLPE (crosslinked) construction before committing the tank to chemical service, because the resin determines stress-crack and oxidizer resistance. The 1.9 SG rating and standard footprint make this a common choice for DEF (32.5%) and Urea Solution (50%), both of which run on 316SS fittings with EPDM gaskets per the OEM chart. Based on that same chemical-resistance data, this tank also handles a wide range of chemistries at the listed concentrations and temperatures, including Acetic Acid (60%) with PP/PVC fittings and EPDM gaskets, Aluminum Sulfate (50%), Calcium Chloride (40%), Ethylene Glycol (100%), Ferric Chloride (50%), Ferric Sulfate (60%), Ferrous Sulfate (20%), Hydrochloric Acid (37%) with Viton gaskets, Hydrofluoric Acid (48%), Hydrofluosilicic Acid (26%), Hydrogen Peroxide (50%) on Viton, Magnesium Chloride (30%), Peracetic Acid (30%) on 316SS with Aflas, Phosphoric Acid (85%), Polyaluminum Chloride, Potassium Carbonate (50%), Potassium Hydroxide (Saturated), Propylene Glycol, Sodium Bisulfate, Sodium Bisulfite, Sodium Carbonate (30%), Sodium Hypochlorite (under 16.5%) on Viton, Sodium Thiosulfate (40%), Sulfuric Acid (98%) with CPVC fittings and Viton, Zinc Orthophosphate, and Ozonated Water (up to 10 PPM). Concentrations and gasket choices matter: hypochlorite, peroxide, the strong acids, and ozonated water want Viton or Aflas rather than EPDM. Verify your exact chemical against the OEM chart at concentration and temperature, and start at our Chemical Compatibility Database.
The mistake to avoid
The classic error with a dense-fluid tote is matching the gasket to convenience instead of the chemistry. EPDM is fine for most salts and glycols here, but it will fail in hydrochloric, phosphoric, sulfuric, hydrogen peroxide, hypochlorite, and ozonated water, all of which call for Viton (and Aflas on peracetic acid). The second mistake is treating a 1.9 SG tote as a license to ignore resin selection: settle the HDLPE-versus-XLPE question first, then match fittings and gaskets per the chart. Get those two right and the tank does the rest.
