A 335 gallon white elliptical leg tank that keeps a trailer load low
The Norwesco 335 gallon horizontal elliptical leg tank in white, part number 42339, is a polyethylene transport and storage tank 71 inches long, 48 inches wide and 33 inches tall, weighing 109 lb empty. The elliptical body carries the volume low and wide, so a full tank keeps its weight close to the deck and the manway stays within reach from the ground. It comes with a 2 inch polypropylene female NPT bulkhead fitting as the outlet and a 16 inch threaded vented manway on top. The tank is rated for liquids up to 1.5 specific gravity, which covers water, most liquid fertilizers and many common chemicals; 335 gallons of water weighs about 2794 lb and the heaviest liquid the rating allows brings a full tank to about 4191 lb. The resin is FDA compliant per Norwesco, the service limit is 120 F, and Norwesco backs the tank with a 3 year warranty. White lets you see the level through the wall in daylight.

On a trailer, a flatbed or a skid
At 33 inches tall this tank goes where a round leg tank of the same capacity will not: on a low utility trailer, under a rack, or on a skid that has to pass through a door. The 71 by 48 inch footprint fits a full size pickup bed over the wheel wells and most single axle trailers; measure before you order. Full, the tank weighs close to a ton and a half with water and more with fertilizer, so the vehicle's payload rating, not the tank, is usually the limit. The moulded legs want a flat, continuous surface under all of them; strap the tank through the leg recesses and never over the manway. Our guide to Norwesco applicator and leg tanks for fertilizer and the DOT non-roadable trailer rules covers how these tanks are classified on the road.
What goes in it
Water, liquid fertilizer and the common farm and treatment chemicals that polyethylene handles are the normal loads. Before anything else goes in, check the liquid in our chemical compatibility guide; the entries for DEF, sodium hypochlorite, phosphoric acid, sulfuric acid and hydrogen peroxide are the ones leg tank buyers ask about most. Liquids heavier than 1.5 times water need a heavy duty tank, not this one. White lets light in, so water that sits for weeks will grow algae; the black version linked below is the one for stored water. If you blend fertilizer in it, our note on fertilizer blend stratification and how to catch it before the spreader runs off spec is worth ten minutes. For the volume itself, use the tank sizing calculator and tank sizing guide.
Openings and fittings
- Outlet. A 2 inch polypropylene female NPT bulkhead fitting, factory installed low in the end wall. Your valve, camlock or hose adapter threads straight into it. Support the valve and the first length of hose so the fitting carries liquid, not hardware.
- Manway. A 16 inch threaded vented manway on top: wide enough to fill from a hose or a pump, to drop a float in, and to get a hand and a brush inside to clean. The vent lets air in as the pump draws down, so keep it clear.
- Drawing. Norwesco's drawing for this tank, linked under Technical Drawing on this page, shows the exact outlet and manway positions and the leg layout for strap planning.
