Norwesco 200 Gallon LM Saddle

The Norwesco 200 Gallon LM Saddle (SKU N-63020) is a steel cradle that supports a horizontal leg-mount tank — it is a load-bearing saddle, not a storage vessel itself. The "200 Gallon" in the name refers to the leg tank this cradle carries; the saddle holds no liquid. If you are staging a Norwesco 200-gallon leg tank on a truck bed, skid, or equipment frame, this is the structural member that carries the load. It arrives finished in black steel, measures 96 inches long by 22 inches wide by 20 inches tall, and weighs 57 pounds empty, so one person can position the cradle and one or two can set the tank into it.

What it does and how it fits

This is a flat-bottom tank cradle: a fabricated steel saddle that supports a horizontal poly tank so the load sits evenly along its length instead of resting on an unsupported floor. The 22 x 96 inch footprint spreads the tank's weight across its full span, which keeps a horizontal leg tank stable in transport and mobile use. Because it is steel rather than rotomolded plastic, the saddle is the structural member of the assembly and the tank is the container. A cradle sized for a different tank will not seat it correctly, so confirm the exact leg tank you are pairing before ordering — call 866-418-1777 and we will confirm the matching 200-gallon Norwesco leg tank for you.

Planning the support

Set the saddle on a flat, level surface or a rigid frame before loading the tank, and let the cradle carry the tank rather than bridging it across two point supports. If you are working out the full tank-and-support stack for a water haul, transfer, or storage build, our Tank Sizing Calculator and Tank Sizing Guide help you confirm the tank capacity and dimensions the saddle needs to match. For above-ground fixed installations, the concrete pad sizing guide covers the foundation the whole assembly bears on.

Freight

At 96 inches long, this saddle ships LTL freight rather than small parcel, quoted live to your ZIP from the nearest stocking plant. Norwesco ships from Fairfield, TX; Griffin, GA; Hanford, CA; Owego, NY; Shawnee, OK; Sheldon, IA; St. Bonifacius, MN; Tooele, UT; Washington Court House, OH; and Washougal, WA, so most orders route from a plant within a region or two of you. Run your ZIP through the Freight Cost Estimator for a rate, or call 866-418-1777 and we will confirm the matching tank and route the freight.
