The Enduraplas 1750 gallon vertical liquid storage tank in black is built for bulk water and non-potable liquid storage where you need real headroom in a tight footprint. Standing 89 inches tall on an 85 by 85 inch base, this Enduraplas vertical storage tank holds 1,750 gallons and is molded from UV-stabilized polyethylene in black, which blocks light penetration and discourages algae growth in stored water. It carries a 1.9 specific gravity rating, so the wall is engineered to handle liquids substantially heavier than water without compromising the shell.
Will this tank handle your liquid's weight?
Water fills this 1,750 gallon storage tank to roughly 14,595 pounds at full capacity, and the body is rated to carry up to 27,730 pounds of contents at its 1.9 specific gravity limit. That margin is the reason buyers reach for an Enduraplas vertical tank over a standard 1.0 SG water-only shell: the same vessel that stores fresh water can also hold denser liquids. The decision rule is simple. If your fluid's specific gravity is at or below 1.9, this tank's wall is rated for it; a standard 1.0 SG water-only tank is not. Verify your fluid's actual specific gravity before relying on the 27,730 pound contents rating. Use the Tank Sizing Calculator and the Tank Sizing Guide to confirm the 1,750 gallon working volume matches your draw-down and refill cycle before you commit. Fitting and outlet locations and overall dimensions are shown on the technical drawing on this page; confirm your inlet, outlet, and vent placement against it before you order plumbing.
The mistake to avoid
The most common error on a vertical storage tank this size is the foundation. A full tank concentrates close to 14,595 pounds of water, and up to 27,730 pounds of heavier contents, onto that 85 by 85 inch footprint, and polyethylene tanks need continuous, level, full-bottom support to spread that load. Set this tank on a properly sized pad, not on bare or uneven ground. Our guide on concrete pad sizing for above-ground polyethylene tanks walks through the engineering framework, and if this tank feeds a private fire-protection or rural reservoir setup, the fire-water reservoir design guide covers NFPA 22 sizing and freeze protection for cold-climate service.
