6011 Gallon 15 Degree Plastic Cone Bottom Tank with Stand

The Enduraplas 6011 Gallon 15 Degree Cone Bottom Tank with Stand is a large-volume mixing and batching tank built for full-drain processing. The tank body sits on an integrated stand, and the 15-degree cone bottom moves product toward the center outlet so solids and liquids clear rather than settling. At 6,011 gallons on a 144 x 144 inch footprint standing 134 inches tall, this is a fixed-plant tank sized for continuous chemical make-down, agricultural nutrient blending, and industrial process storage where the contents need to empty completely between batches.

Siting and load path

Treat this as a poured-slab installation, not a set-and-fill drop. The tank occupies a 12 ft x 12 ft footprint (144 x 144 inches) and stands about 11 ft 2 in tall (134 inches), so plan overhead clearance for fill access and a ladder or platform before delivery. Filled with water it weighs roughly 50,132 pounds, and that full-water figure lands on the stand legs as a concentrated point load — hand it to whoever pours the pad. Two caveats: 50,132 lb is the water basis at specific gravity 1.0, so a heavier chemical raises both the total weight on the slab and the hydrostatic pressure on the wall; and the anchor pattern should be confirmed against the technical drawing before you cure the slab. Use the Tank Sizing Calculator and the Tank Sizing Guide to confirm 6,011 gallons matches your peak fill, not just your average batch.

Chemical service, specific gravity, and gaskets

This tank does not carry a published specific-gravity rating in our current data, and the resin grade should be confirmed before you commit it to chemical duty. Specific gravity is the number that decides whether the wall thickness holds your liquid — a 6,000-gallon column of a dense chemical exerts far more hydrostatic pressure than water. Before you fill it with anything denser than water, run three checks: (a) confirm the tank's rated specific gravity and resin with us at 866-418-1777; (b) run your chemical, concentration, and temperature through our Chemical Compatibility Database against the manufacturer's concentration- and temperature-specific resistance chart; and (c) confirm the gasket and fitting elastomers separately — a gasket often fails a chemical the tank wall itself passes. Bring your full chemical, concentration, and temperature when you call so we can walk all three with you.

Layout, drain, and fittings

The 15-degree cone slope self-empties toward the center outlet, which is the whole reason to choose a cone over a flat-bottom vertical — size your outlet and pump for that drain. Because this is a stand-mounted cone bottom, the outlet sits well above grade, leaving room underneath for a valve, sample port, and the receiving pump or hose run. Fitting sizes and outlet dimensions are not published in our current data for this tank, so confirm them on the technical drawing on this page and with us at 866-418-1777 before you commit the plumbing.
