The Enduraplas 2020 Gallon Black Vertical Storage Tank is a heavy-capacity polyethylene vessel built for bulk water storage on farms, rural fire-water reserves, and industrial process supply. It holds a nominal 2,020 gallons on a 110-inch footprint and stands 73 inches tall, and the black resin blocks sunlight to slow algae growth in stored water. It is sized for sites that need real reserve volume without stepping up to a multi-tank battery.
Will it work for your site?
The tank measures 110 inches wide by 110 inches deep by 73 inches tall, so plan for a level pad at least that footprint plus working clearance. Filled with water, the tank and contents weigh about 16,847 pounds; the shell carries a 1.9 specific-gravity rating and a maximum rated contents weight near 32,009 pounds, which means it is engineered to hold denser liquids than water without exceeding its structural limit. That headroom is useful, but for water service the water-weight figure is what governs your pad and anchoring. Because a filled 2,020-gallon tank concentrates thousands of pounds on a small area, pour a proper foundation first — our concrete pad sizing guide walks through the ACI framework for above-ground polyethylene tanks. Empty, the tank is light relative to its 110-inch profile, so anchor it to the pad for wind before commissioning on exposed sites. If you are still weighing capacities, run the numbers with our Tank Sizing Calculator and Tank Sizing Guide.
Common uses and the mistake to avoid
Vertical storage tanks this size handle rural fire-water reservoirs, irrigation supply, and industrial water reuse trains. If fire protection is the job, size the reserve to your NFPA 22 demand before buying — our fire-water reservoir design guide also covers freeze protection for cold-climate service. The black resin absorbs solar heat, but plan freeze protection per that cold-climate guidance for winter service; black is not freeze-proof. For grey-water, rainwater, or HVAC condensate aggregation, our water reuse topology guide shows how to band quality across a storage train. The mistake to avoid: treating the 1.9 SG rating as a signal to store heavy chemicals in a water-configured tank. Fitting and outlet configuration is not listed in our spec data, so confirm the exact inlet and outlet layout against the technical drawing on this page or by phone before you pour the pad, since molded polyethylene penetrations cannot be relocated after the fact.
Freight
This Enduraplas tank ships by LTL freight from the Enduraplas plant in Neche, North Dakota, and freight is quoted live to your ZIP code rather than included in the list price. Because it ships from a single North Dakota plant, freight varies sharply by destination, so pull a live number before you commit with our Freight Cost Estimator, or call 866-418-1777 and we will quote the tank and freight together and confirm delivery access for a tank this size.
