The Enduraplas 2000 Gallon White Cone Bottom Tank is a full-drain vessel built for chemical and industrial process work where you need every gallon to evacuate cleanly. It holds 2,000 gallons in a 90-inch-diameter footprint and stands 113 inches tall, molded in natural white polyethylene so you can read the liquid level through the wall. The 1.9 specific-gravity rating is the number that matters most here: it tells you this tank is engineered to carry dense chemicals, not just water, which separates it from a standard water-grade cone bottom.
Will it work for your application?
Filled with water, this tank carries roughly 16,680 pounds; at its full 1.9 SG rating it is built to hold up to 31,692 pounds of contents. That weight has to land somewhere - a cone bottom tank drains completely but cannot stand on its own, so it has to sit in a matching steel or poly stand sized to the cone angle and the loaded weight. Before you order, confirm your stand and the slab beneath it are rated for the loaded figure, not the empty tank. At a 1.9 specific-gravity rating this is the densest-content cone bottom we stock in this size - there is no higher-SG step-up, so if your media exceeds 1.9 SG, call us before ordering. Our Cone Bottom Tank Stand Compatibility Matrix walks through Norwesco, Snyder, and Enduraplas stand pairings, and the Tank Sizing Calculator plus the Tank Sizing Guide help you confirm capacity and footprint against your space. See the technical drawing on this page for the cone geometry and outlet detail.
Chemical compatibility
This is a polyethylene tank rated to 1.9 specific gravity. The resin is recorded as HDLPE with a question mark, so we will confirm the exact resin - linear versus crosslinked PE - in writing for your specific chemical and operating temperature before you commit; we don't guess on wall material for chemical service, because crosslinked and linear polyethylene behave differently with aggressive media. Outlet and bulkhead fitting sizes are configured per order as well - this tank does not ship with a fixed fitting package, so confirm your required outlet size, fitting material, and gasket with us before purchase. Always verify against the OEM chemical-resistance chart for your specific concentration and operating temperature; the pairings below are concentration- and temperature-specific and assume the matching fitting and gasket materials.
Chemicals this tank is rated to handle, with the recommended fitting and gasket materials, include: Acetic Acid (60%, PP/PVC fittings, EPDM gaskets), Aluminum Sulfate (50%, PVC, EPDM), Calcium Chloride (40%, PVC, EPDM), DEF (32.5%, 316SS, EPDM), Ethylene Glycol (100%, PVC, EPDM), Ferric Chloride (50%, PVC, EPDM), Ferric Sulfate (60%, PVC, EPDM), Ferrous Sulfate (20%, PVC, EPDM), Hydrochloric Acid (37%, PVC, Viton), Hydrofluoric Acid (48%, PP/PVC, Viton), Hydrofluosilicic Acid (26%, PP/PVC, Viton), Hydrogen Peroxide (50%, PVC, Viton), Magnesium Chloride (30%, PVC, EPDM), Peracetic Acid (30%, 316SS, Aflas), Phosphoric Acid (85%, PVC, Viton), Polyaluminum Chloride (PVC, EPDM), Potassium Carbonate (50%, PVC, EPDM), Potassium Hydroxide (saturated, PVC, EPDM), Propylene Glycol (PP/316SS, EPDM), Sodium Bisulfate (PVC/PP, EPDM), Sodium Bisulfite (PVC/PP, EPDM), Sodium Carbonate (30%, PVC, EPDM), Sodium Hypochlorite (under 16.5%, PVC, Viton), Sodium Thiosulfate (40%, PVC, EPDM), Sulfuric Acid (98%, CPVC, Viton), Urea Solution (50%, PP/PVC, EPDM), Zinc Orthophosphate (PP/316SS, EPDM), and Ozonated Water (up to 10 PPM, PVC, EPDM). Watch the wetted-material call-outs: chlorine-bearing and oxidizing media such as sodium hypochlorite, hydrogen peroxide, sulfuric acid, and the hydrofluoric acids want Viton gaskets, while peracetic acid wants Aflas - the wrong elastomer at the fitting is the most common mistake on a chemical install. DEF and peracetic acid are also the exceptions to PVC: both require 316 stainless fittings, and DEF additionally demands scrupulously clean, non-contaminating wetted parts to stay on spec.

Freight and ordering
This cone bottom tank ships by LTL freight, quoted live to your ZIP code. It ships from the nearest Enduraplas plant - Converse, TX or Neche, ND. Texas (Converse) serves the South and Gulf; North Dakota (Neche) serves the Upper Midwest and Plains, and your quote pulls from whichever is closer, so buyers near either plant see the lowest LTL. Get an exact number with our Freight Cost Estimator, or call 866-418-1777 and we will work the cone bottom tank, the matching stand, and freight together. If you are also specifying instrumentation, our guide on tank level gauge selection for chemical service covers radar, ultrasonic, hydrostatic, and magnetostrictive options for cone tanks like this one.
