The 4300 Gallon Plastic Vertical Liquid Storage Tank from Snyder Industries is a white polyethylene vertical storage tank built for bulk water and general liquid holding where a fixed, above-ground reservoir sits on a prepared pad. It stands 104 inches tall on a roughly 120 inch diameter (a 120 x 120 inch footprint), so you can check gate and doorway clearance and lay out your pad before delivery. Its 1.5 specific gravity rating means the wall is engineered to carry contents up to 1.5 times the weight of water, which gives you real headroom above plain water service without stepping up to a different tank.
Will it work for your site?
Empty, this shell is light and sets in place easily. Full is where the load lives: filled with water it imposes roughly 35,862 lb of contents on the pad, and at its full 1.5 specific gravity rating it is rated to hold up to 53,793 lb. Those numbers drive your foundation. A ~120 inch diameter footprint needs a level, continuously supported slab sized for that loaded weight, not just the empty tank. Before you pour, walk through our concrete pad sizing framework so the slab matches the ACI guidance for above-ground polyethylene tanks. If you are still weighing capacity against your daily draw and refill, the Tank Sizing Calculator and Tank Sizing Guide help you confirm 4300 gallons is the right vertical tank for the job.
Common uses and the mistake to avoid
A white vertical storage tank at this volume is a common choice for bulk water storage, process water, agricultural supply, and private fire-water reservoirs. Because the 1.5 specific gravity rating already covers most process liquids and lighter chemicals up to 1.5 times water weight, there is no upgrade needed for heavier-than-water service that a standard 1.0 water-only tank would force. If fire protection is on the table, our guide to fire-water reservoir tank design covers NFPA 22 sizing discipline and freeze protection for cold-climate sites as sizing guidance, and the industrial water reuse topology guide is worth reading if this tank feeds a grey-water or rainwater train. The mistake to avoid: treating the 1.5 specific gravity rating as permission to skip foundation math. That rating protects the tank wall, but the pad and any anchoring still have to carry the full loaded weight, and an under-built slab is where large vertical tanks fail first. Outlet sizes and fitting locations are configured per order against the Snyder spec sheet rather than published on this page, so confirm your fitting arrangement with us before you plumb.
Where it ships from and how freight works
This Snyder tank ships from the Chowchilla, California plant. Because of its size it moves by LTL freight, quoted live to your ZIP rather than folded into the list price. Enter your delivery ZIP in our Freight Cost Estimator for a current rate, or call 866-418-1777 and we will quote the freight and confirm lead time. The closer you are to Chowchilla, the lower your freight will run, so it is worth pricing before you commit.
