The Enduraplas 1750 Gallon Black Vertical Storage Tank is a polyethylene bulk-water reservoir built for above-ground storage where you need real capacity without a custom build. It is an 85-inch diameter round vertical tank standing 89 inches tall, holding 1,750 gallons in a footprint close to square on its bounding box, which makes it straightforward to site on a single pad. The black exterior blocks light to limit algae growth in stored water, and the shell carries a 1.9 specific gravity rating, so its wall is engineered to hold contents heavier than plain water.

Will this tank work for my site?
Plan your installation around weight, not just gallons. Filled with water this Enduraplas vertical storage tank carries roughly 14,595 pounds of contents, and its wall is rated to a maximum contents weight of 27,730 pounds at the 1.9 specific gravity figure. That spread is the number that matters: the pad, ring wall, or slab under this tank has to carry the full water load plus the tank's own mass across the 85-inch round base. Size the foundation to the filled weight before delivery, and confirm the ground is level and continuously supported under the entire base. Refer to the technical drawing on this page for the as-supplied lid, fitting, and outlet configuration, then match your bulkhead fittings and gaskets to those sizes before plumbing. If you are still deciding between sizes, run the numbers through our Tank Sizing Calculator and read the Tank Sizing Guide to match capacity and footprint to your demand.
How does it ship, and what will freight cost?
An 1,750 gallon vertical tank ships LTL freight on a pallet or skid, not by parcel. We ship from the nearer of two plants to your delivery ZIP: Converse, Texas or Neche, North Dakota. Freight is quoted live to your destination rather than rolled into the listed price, so the closer plant and your site accessibility determine the rate. Because this is an oversized freight unit, confirm your delivery site can take a large truck and has the access to receive it. Get a number before you order with the Freight Cost Estimator, or call 866-418-1777 and we will route from whichever plant lands the better rate.
The mistake to avoid on a tank this size
The most common error with a vertical storage tank in this class is treating the gallon number as the design load. Water is the lighter case here. Rated to 1.9 specific gravity, this shell is heavier-duty than a typical 1.0 to 1.5 SG water-only tank, so the same body handles denser liquids up to the 27,730 pound ceiling if your service ever changes. If you do store anything heavier than water, stay under that ceiling, confirm the liquid is compatible with polyethylene, and verify the bulkhead fitting and gasket material match the stored liquid before filling. The second mistake is an undersized or uneven pad. A few thousand pounds bearing on a high spot will stress the base, so get the foundation right first. If you are planning fire-water reserve or cold-climate service, our guide on fire-water reservoir tank design and freeze protection covers reserve sizing, and our concrete pad sizing framework walks through the foundation engineering for above-ground polyethylene tanks.
For collected rain, grey-water, or HVAC condensate storage, this tank fits a banded-quality reuse train described in our industrial water reuse tank topology guide.
