The 6100 Gallon Vertical Liquid Storage Tank from Norwesco is a large-format, fixed-install vessel for bulk water and liquid storage where capacity and a stable footprint matter more than mobility. It stands 140 inches tall on a 119-inch diameter base and is molded from polyethylene with a 1.5 specific gravity rating, so it carries the full range of liquids commonly stored in a vertical storage tank without exceeding the resin's design margin.
Will it work for your site?
This is a fixed-location vertical tank sized for serious volume. Filled with water, the contents weigh roughly 50,874 lb; at the tank's maximum 1.5 specific gravity rating the contents can reach about 76,311 lb. Those numbers drive everything downstream - the pad, the anchoring, and the access. Plan for a level pad at least 10 feet across and about 12 feet of vertical clearance for the 140-inch height, then walk through the foundation math in our concrete pad sizing guide before you pour. The 119-inch circular footprint is the planning dimension for siting, clearance, and setback. If you are still comparing capacities, the Tank Sizing Calculator and Tank Sizing Guide help you match draw-down and storage duration to the right Norwesco tank.
Common uses and the 1.5 specific gravity ceiling
At 6,100 gallons this tank is well suited to bulk water reserves and agricultural and irrigation supply. For rural and remote fire-water reservoir planning, our fire-water reservoir design guide covers NFPA 22 sizing discipline and cold-climate freeze protection. For industrial water reuse trains aggregating grey-water, rainwater, and HVAC condensate, see our water reuse tank topology guide. The mistake to avoid: treat the 1.5 specific gravity number as your hard ceiling, not a suggestion. Your liquid's specific gravity must be 1.5 or lower - water sits at 1.0, while most fertilizers and brines run roughly 1.1 to 1.4. Confirm your liquid's specific gravity falls within that rating before you fill.
Fittings, freight, and how to order
Fitting and bulkhead configuration varies by build, so call 866-418-1777 to confirm inlet and outlet sizes, manway, and gasket spec before you order - that conversation also confirms the exact unit for your application. This tank ships LTL freight, quoted live to your ZIP code. Norwesco molds this size at multiple plants - Griffin, GA; Lancaster, OH; Owego, NY; and Washougal, WA - and we ship from the location nearest you to keep transit and cost down. As a fixed-install unit delivered by LTL carrier, offloading the tank on arrival is the buyer's responsibility, so have appropriate equipment staged. Because BigCommerce list price does not include freight, get your exact freight number with our Freight Cost Estimator, or call 866-418-1777 and we will route the order from the closest plant.
