3000 Gallon 15 Degree Plastic Vertical Cone Bottom Tank with Stand

The Enduraplas 3000 Gallon 15 Degree Plastic Vertical Cone Bottom Tank with Stand (SKU THC03000K) is built for processes that need full drainage and a tank that empties toward its outlet instead of leaving product settled on a flat floor. The 15-degree cone is a shallower slope than a 30- or 45-degree cone, so it trades a smaller overall height for a slightly larger residual heel - a good match for thin, non-settling fluids and a less ideal one for heavy slurries. Carried on an integrated stand at 3000 gallons in a 90 x 90 inch footprint standing 146 inches tall, it holds a large working volume without spreading across your pad.

Will it work for your application

Verified dimensions on this unit are 146 inches high by 90 inches wide by 90 inches long, giving you the height the cone-and-stand geometry needs and a 90.0 x 90.0 inch (about 56 square foot) footprint to plan your containment area around. Fully loaded with water the tank carries about 25,020 pounds concentrated over that footprint, and that load reaches the slab through the stand's legs rather than spreading evenly - so size the pad, secondary containment, and anchoring for the concentrated stand-leg point loads, not just the average. If you are still deciding on volume, run your batch and turnover numbers through our Tank Sizing Calculator and the Tank Sizing Guide so the cone bottom you buy matches how you actually draw the tank down. Because this is a vertical cone bottom storage tank on a stand, confirm your outlet plumbing and any bottom valve reach the discharge height the stand creates.

The mistake to avoid on a chemical tank

The single most important step before you put anything but water in this tank is confirming the resin and specific-gravity rating against your chemistry. This pack does not list a specific-gravity rating or a confirmed resin grade for THC03000K, and you should not assume one. Work a short pre-order checklist before you buy: (1) confirm the tank's SG rating covers your fluid's density; (2) confirm the resin against your chemical, concentration, and temperature; (3) confirm gasket and fitting materials match the chemistry; (4) confirm your bottom valve and outlet reach the stand's discharge height. Heavier-than-water chemicals demand a higher specific-gravity rating, so those tanks are not interchangeable. Our Chemical Compatibility Database is the right first stop, and the OEM chemical-resistance chart is concentration- and temperature-specific, so read it against your real service conditions rather than a general category. Call 866-418-1777 with the exact chemical, concentration, and temperature and we will confirm the SG rating covers your fluid before you order.

Freight and how to order

This tank ships LTL freight, quoted live to your ZIP code rather than bundled into the list price. Use the Freight Cost Estimator for a delivery number to your dock, and review the dimensional specs above for the cone angle, overall height, and stand layout before you finalize your install. Our 3000 Gallon 15 Degree Cone Bottom Tank buyer's guide walks through this exact configuration; for smaller, steeper-cone examples of a cone bottom tank with poly stand, see our 300 gallon and 175 gallon 30-degree guides.
