The Norwesco Saddle 200 Gallon is a steel flat-bottom cradle built to seat a 200-gallon-class Norwesco tank on a stable, purpose-made base instead of improvised blocking. It ships from the nearest of six plants (CA, GA, IA, OH, TX, UT), weighs 82 lb, and covers a 24 x 57 inch footprint. The one job that matters here is the match: this cradle carries load correctly only under the Norwesco tank it was designed for, so confirm your tank model before ordering.
Specifications that decide fit
Dimensions: 57 inches long x 24 inches wide x 22 inches tall, verified. At 82 lb of steel, this is a rigid, ground-contact flat-bottom cradle — Norwesco files it under Tank Cradles for flat-bottom cradle applications — not a lightweight strap kit. Check two things against your tank: that its base fits the 24 x 57 inch cradle footprint, and that its bottom outlet and drain fitting clear the 22-inch cradle height before you order. The technical drawing on this page shows the cradle geometry for that check. If you are still sizing the tank itself, the Tank Sizing Calculator and Tank Sizing Guide cover capacity and footprint planning.
The mistake to avoid
The common error with cradles is treating them as universal. A mismatched cradle concentrates the tank's full loaded weight on narrow contact areas instead of spreading it across the base — and the load is real: a full 200-gallon water tank puts roughly 1,700 lb on this cradle. That same number is why the surface under the cradle matters as much as the cradle itself. Plan a flat, level, load-rated base; our guide on concrete pad sizing for above-ground polyethylene tanks walks through the ACI 360R-10 framework for exactly this.
Freight: where it ships from
This Norwesco cradle ships LTL from the nearest stocking plant — Chowchilla, CA; Griffin, GA; an Iowa plant; Lancaster, OH; Houston, TX; or Tooele, UT — quoted live to your ZIP. At 82 lb and 57 inches long, it moves as standard LTL freight. Run your ZIP through the Freight Cost Estimator for a real number, or call 866-418-1777 and we will quote it while confirming the cradle-to-tank match. Ordering the cradle together with its tank on one shipment is usually the smart freight play — ask when you call.
