3000 Gallon Cone Bottom Tank With Poly Stand 40553

The Enduraplas 3000 Gallon Cone Bottom Tank with Poly Stand (part 40553, SKU 8360037) is a full-drain vessel built for batching, mixing, and dosing where the tank has to empty completely between runs. The cone geometry sits inside a matched polyethylene stand so the discharge point clears the ground for gravity-fed transfer. At 3,000 gallons standing 135 inches tall, this is a floor-anchored fixture, not a portable tote - plan the pad and overhead clearance before it arrives.

Will it work for your process?

The tank body measures 95 inches wide by 95 inches long and 135 inches tall, and those dimensions are verified against the launch spec - confirm the technical drawing on this page against your bay height and door clearance before ordering. Note that the 95 x 95 inch figure is the tank's nominal width and length; the poly stand's base footprint is not listed in this spec pack, so confirm the actual pad dimension on the drawing before you pour a slab. A cone bottom paired with its own poly stand means the whole assembly ships as an engineered set - you are not sourcing a separate steel frame or improvising legs. Filled with water this tank carries roughly 25,020 pounds, so the slab underneath has to be rated for that static load plus your product weight; if you are dosing a liquid heavier than water, that number climbs proportionally. Use the Tank Sizing Calculator and the Tank Sizing Guide to match working volume to your batch cadence rather than buying to the nameplate.

Outlet, fittings, and the mistake to avoid

Two items on this build are not in our spec pack, and both matter for chemical service. First, the outlet size, cone discharge fitting configuration, and gasket material are not listed - confirm the discharge fitting and gasket with our team before ordering, since on a cone tank the discharge point is the usual first failure. Second, the specific gravity rating is not published here, and that matters more on a cone bottom than on a vertical tank, because the sloped wall and full-liquid load concentrate stress at the cone-to-stand transition. Before you put anything denser than water in it, confirm the SG rating and resin - and if your fluid is heavy, ask us to quote the SG-rated wall build rather than running this one past its limit. Guessing at specific gravity is how cone tanks fail early.

Chemical compatibility

For aggressive chemistry, compatibility has to clear two materials, not one: the polyethylene tank wall and the discharge fitting and gasket elastomer, which is not specified in this pack. Check both against our Chemical Compatibility Database at your actual concentration and temperature, then call us with those numbers so we confirm the resin, the SG-rated build, and a gasket material that survives your fluid. We would rather steer you to the right build than sell you a tank that outruns its rating.

Choosing the stand

This model comes with the polyethylene stand, the lighter, corrosion-resistant path versus a welded steel frame. If you are weighing that trade-off, our stand selection decision tree and the Norwesco, Snyder, and Enduraplas compatibility matrix walk through when each makes sense. Smaller siblings in this line - the 300 gallon and 310 gallon poly-stand buyer's guides - show the same drain-and-mix logic at a benchtop scale if 3,000 gallons is more than your process needs.
