60 Gallon 45 Degree Plastic Cone Bottom Tank with Stand

The Enduraplas 60 Gallon 45 Degree Plastic Cone Bottom Tank with Stand pairs a steep-angle conical hopper with an integrated poly stand, built for batch work where liquid needs to drain out completely instead of settling and stagnating. The 45-degree cone is the aggressive end of the cone-bottom range: it sheds solids, sludge, and slurries far better than a shallow 20 or 30-degree hopper, which is why this footprint gets searched as a cone bottom batch tank, mixing day tank, and gravity-drain feed tank. Standing 45 inches tall on a 30 x 30-inch base, it gives you elevated bottom-outlet clearance to run a valve, hose, or pump underneath without building a separate platform.

Will it work for your application?

This is a 60-gallon working vessel measuring 45 inches high by 30 inches wide by 30 inches deep, with verified dimensions. Filled with water, the tank and contents reach roughly 500 pounds, so plan the pad, anchoring, and any secondary containment around that loaded weight rather than the dry shipping weight. The included stand carries that load and holds the cone tip up off the ground so the bottom drain clears your plumbing. Because a cone bottom is sized around the batch volume you drain at once — not just the gallons stored — confirm your fill medium against the height and the stand's rated load before you commit. If you are weighing this against a larger hopper, the Tank Sizing Calculator and Tank Sizing Guide will walk you through matching cone angle and volume to your process.

Chemical compatibility

This listing does not publish a specific-gravity rating or a chemical-resistance chart, so treat it as water-grade until we confirm otherwise. The 500-pound loaded figure above is water at a specific gravity of 1.0; a denser fluid pushes both the shell and the stand past that number. Before you put anything heavier than water into it — acids, fertilizers, or concentrated solutions — confirm the resin grade and specific-gravity limit with our team, then cross-check your exact chemical, concentration, and temperature in the Chemical Compatibility Database. Match the fluid's specific gravity to a verified tank rating first, and select your bottom-outlet valve and gasket materials to suit once that rating is confirmed. We cannot name compatible chemicals for this tank from the published record, so nothing here should be read as an approval for a specific chemical service.

The mistake to avoid

The number-one cone-bottom error is dropping a heavy chemical into a shell rated for water. Cone bottoms are bought for chemical batching precisely because they drain clean, which makes it easy to over-fill a water-grade tank with a dense fluid and overload both the vessel and the stand. Fittings are not published on this listing either, so confirm the actual bottom-outlet size and type with our team before you plumb it — do not assume a valve thread or bulkhead size. The second mistake is under-supporting the stand: keep it on a flat, level, fully-bearing surface so the cone load stays centered over the legs.

This cone-bottom tank and its stand ship by LTL freight on a pallet. Because freight varies by destination, we quote it live to your exact ZIP rather than bundling it into the price — run your ZIP through the Freight Cost Estimator for a real number before you buy. For help confirming the specific-gravity rating, verifying the bottom-outlet fitting, or matching this 45-degree cone to your batch process, call 866-418-1777 and we will spec it with you before it ships.
