5-gallon white cone bottom tank built for full-drain mixing and batch processing. Manufactured by Norwesco from virgin linear polyethylene (HDPE) rated to handle liquids up to 12.5 pounds per gallon. FDA approved for contact with potable water, ensuring safe storage for drinking water and food-grade liquids.
The 5 Gallon Cone Bottom Specialty Rinse Tank - ( Minimum Order Qty = 4 , Price Displayed = 1 unit ) is designed for chemical processors, water treatment plants, and agricultural operations requiring complete tank drainage. At 5 gallons, this cone bottom tank is sized for batch processing, chemical mixing, and applications where complete drainage between cycles is non-negotiable. The cone geometry eliminates the dead volume that flat-bottom tanks leave behind.
Constructed from virgin linear polyethylene (HDPE) using a single-piece rotational molding process that eliminates seams, weld lines, and potential leak points. Rated to 1.5 specific gravity, this tank handles liquids up to 12.5 pounds per gallon — covering the full range of agricultural chemicals, liquid fertilizers, and most industrial solutions. The wall thickness is engineered specifically for this density range. Translucent white walls allow visual level monitoring without opening the tank and reflect sunlight to keep contents cooler. Maximum operating temperature is 120 F / 48 C, with UV stabilizers compounded directly into the resin for outdoor service life.
This tank measures 11 inches long by 11 inches wide and 18 inches tall, requiring 0.8 square feet of level ground. Empty weight is 6 pounds. At full capacity with a 1.5 SG liquid, expect approximately 69 pounds on the foundation. A flat, level surface is sufficient — no special foundation required. Must be installed on the manufacturer-supplied or compatible stand rated for the full loaded weight. Never rest a cone bottom tank directly on its apex.
Comes equipped with a 1.25 NPT outlet fitting installed at the factory. No inlet fitting is included — drill and install a bulkhead fitting at your preferred height for your specific plumbing layout. The 8" lid accommodates fill lines, vent connections, and basic interior access for inspection. Standard garden hose adapter or direct NPT connection works well for tanks this size.
