The Norwesco Saddle 200 Gallon is support hardware, not a tank — a black painted steel cradle built to carry a 200-gallon-class tank. It holds no liquid itself; its job is to give the tank a stable, purpose-built resting base instead of improvised blocking, spreading the load across a 28 x 60 inch footprint. At 75 lb empty, it is manageable to position, yet stout enough to sit under a loaded tank for the long haul. If you searched for a norwesco saddle in the 200 class, this is the matching support piece from the same manufacturer.
Dimensions and fit
The cradle measures 60 inches long by 28 inches wide by 20 inches tall. Norwesco files it under its Flat Bottom Cradles line, so match it to a flat-bottom tank — not a leg tank or a horizontal tank with different support geometry. Before ordering, check your tank's footprint against the 28 x 60 inch cradle so the shell bears evenly rather than at hard points; if you have your tank SKU, call 866-418-1777 and we will confirm the pairing. Still choosing the tank itself? The Tank Sizing Calculator and Tank Sizing Guide will get capacity and footprint right before you commit to support hardware.
The mistake to avoid
The most common error with cradles is setting them on an unprepared surface. A cradle concentrates the full weight of a filled tank onto its footprint, so the base underneath must be flat, level, and rated for the load — water alone in a 200 gallon tank adds well over 1,600 lb before you count the tank and cradle. The pad-load principles in our guide on concrete pad sizing for above-ground tanks apply directly: the ACI 360R-10 framework covers how to size a base that will not settle or crack under a concentrated footprint.
