The Enduraplas 6000 Gallon Plastic Vertical Liquid Storage Tank is a large-format polyethylene tank built for bulk water and liquid storage where you need serious volume in a single vessel. It stands 179 inches tall on a 110 by 110 inch footprint, so plan your site around that full 110-inch diameter plus clearance for fittings, fill access, and equipment. Dimensions on this listing are verified against the tank drawing, so the numbers you see are the numbers you build to.
Will it work for your site?
This is a vertical storage tank rated at 6000 gallons. Filled with water it carries roughly 50,040 pounds — and that figure is the filled operating weight that drives your foundation, not a shipping weight. The tank itself ships empty as an oversized LTL or flatbed item. A vessel this size belongs on a properly engineered, level pad; an unlevel or undersized base is the fastest way to stress the tank wall and shorten its life. Before you pour, work through the load math with our Tank Sizing Calculator and read the concrete pad sizing guide so the foundation matches the filled load. If you are still confirming whether 6000 gallons is the right volume, the Tank Sizing Guide and the 6000 gallon vertical tank buyer's guide walk through the trade-offs.
Fittings and access
Per the technical drawing on this page, this unit ships with a single 3-inch bolted fitting and one 16-inch lid as drawn. The 3-inch fitting is a bolted flange, so verify the bulkhead gasket material is compatible with your liquid before commissioning. If you need additional outlets, an overflow, or a vent, specify those before the order goes to production rather than planning to add them in the field. Note that the 16-inch inspection lid sits at roughly 179 inches — about 15 feet up — so plan ladder or platform access for fill, gauging, and inspection. See the technical drawing on this page for fitting and lid placement.
A common mistake to avoid
A specific-gravity rating is not published for this unit on our listing. Call 866-418-1777 to confirm the factory rating before storing anything denser than water, because a tank pushed past its gravity rating is a wall-failure risk — many chemicals and slurries are heavier than water. For plain water, rainwater capture, fire-water reservoirs, and general bulk liquid storage it is a strong fit; the fire-water reservoir design guide and the water reuse topology guide cover those applications in depth.
