10,000 gallons rated for liquids 1.9 times the weight of water
The Snyder 32028 is a white high density linear polyethylene vertical liquid storage tank, 142 inches in diameter and 167 inches tall, that holds 10,000 gallons and weighs 2,539 pounds empty. That weight is the 1.9 specific gravity wall: rated for 158,460 pounds of contents where the same volume of water weighs 83,400, it is a bulk chemical tank in a water tank's shape and also the heaviest-walled 10,000 gallon water tank Snyder makes. A 2 inch polypropylene female NPT bulkhead outlet and a 20 inch threaded, vented manway.

The foundation and the vent
At its rating this tank loads a 142 inch circle to 158,460 pounds; with water it is 83,400. Either is an engineered slab in full contact under the whole floor, level enough that 167 inches of tank stands plumb, with the empty shell strapped against wind. A tank this size breathes hard when a tanker unloads or a pump draws down, and the manway vent has to keep up; the atmospheric vent capacity guide works the API 2000 numbers for exactly this size. The day tanks that usually stand beside a bulk tank like this are covered in the 2,000 gallon and 500 gallon vertical tank buyers guides; the tank sizing calculator and the tank sizing guide settle the volume.
Ten thousand gallons, three walls
| Part | Gallons | Diameter x height | Empty weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| 32028 (this tank, 1.9 SG) | 10,000 | 142 x 167 in | 2,539 lb |
| 32026 | 10,000 | 142 x 167 in | 2,170 lb |
| 5330000C34 | 10,500 | 142 x 169 in | 2,250 lb |
| 7450000C26 | 9,800 | 120 x 215 in | 2,800 lb |
The 32026 is the same mold with 369 fewer pounds of resin, the lighter wall for water or dilute solutions. The 5330000C34 adds 500 gallons at 2 more inches of height on the same base. The 7450000C26 is the narrow answer, 9,800 gallons on a 120 inch base at 215 inches, for the site with floor to save and height to spare.

Ports and access
- Outlet: 2 inch polypropylene female NPT bulkhead fitting at the base; a flanged or adapted transition, an expansion joint, and a valve supported off the slab.
- Access: 20 inch threaded, vented manway, 167 inches up; vent outside on caustic and acid service, fill through a dip tube.
- Service limit: 120 F / 48 C.
Fourteen feet of head over a 2 inch outlet is real pressure at the bulkhead; check the nut after the first full fill and never let pipe hang from the fitting. Instrumentation at this height is a hydrostatic sender at the outlet or radar on the manway. Fill through a dip tube to the floor so a tanker unload does not free-fall and foam, and vent outside on caustic and acid service; the off-gas from an open tank is what corrodes the electrical gear nearby.
What it does
Bulk caustic, coagulant and acid storage at water and wastewater plants; reagent storage at chemical and food plants; and, with water in it, a fire reserve for a commercial site sized under NFPA 22 as the fire-water reservoir design guide describes, with a wall that will outlast a water tank's.
Freight to your ZIP
At 142 inches across the 32028 is oversize freight (NMFC 156600) on a flatbed at a lane rate; the freight cost estimator prices it for your ZIP, and the listed price is before freight. Book a crane for 2,539 pounds, have the slab cured and surveyed, and plan a staged water fill with a hold before any chemical is ordered. A photo of the tank on its pad, full, on day one is worth keeping; it is the baseline every later inspection is compared against.
Freight and documents
Ships from: Merced, CA; Albertville, AL. LTL freight is quoted to your ZIP with the freight cost estimator or by phone at 866-418-1777. The listed price is before freight.
