A taller, deeper 29 gallon format gives the Ronco Plastics B497 its niche: where floor space is spoken for but a compartment has height to spare, this 47 lb molding stands its capacity up instead of laying it down.
It is a dual-role B-series shell, so the same tank ships in two personalities. With fresh water fittings, it is a potable tank in food-grade polyethylene; with waste fittings, a gray or black holding tank.
Plan for about 242 lb of water at capacity, 8.34 lb per gallon, concentrated on the tank's modest base.
Molded in Tustin, California by Ronco Plastics, molding tanks since 1974. Flatter 29 gallon energy lives elsewhere in the boat tank collection, the RV holding tanks cover dedicated waste roles, and the freight cost estimator prices delivery to your door. One Source Plastics is an authorized Ronco Plastics dealer.
Fittings
This tank has a molded shape (see the drawing), so it is sold as a blank tank with no fittings installed. Add the Ronco 3-inch uniseal (F3UNISEAL), a loose pipe-to-tank seal you install yourself, if you need a sealed pipe connection.
