10,500 gallons in black at 1.9 specific gravity, the Chowchilla mold
The Snyder 5330300C34 is a black polyethylene vertical storage tank, 143 inches across and 177 inches tall, holding 10,500 gallons at 2,600 pounds. Snyder molds a black 10,500 in two places, and this is the West Coast one: out of Chowchilla, California on a 143 inch base at nearly fifteen feet, where the Lincoln and Philippi tank is an inch narrower and eight inches shorter. Two tankers of liquid in a black wall that keeps light off it, rated for a specific gravity of 1.9, or 166,383 pounds of contents against 87,570 for water. A 3 inch polypropylene female NPT bulkhead outlet, an 18 inch threaded, vented manway, a 3 year warranty, and freight at class 300.

Two molds, one tank, and which one you get
West Coast buyers get this molding from Chowchilla; the Plains and the East get the 5330000C34 from Lincoln or Philippi, 350 pounds lighter and eight inches shorter on the sheet, and the freight lane decides it more often than the inches do. What they share is the job: two tankers of a dense, light-sensitive chemical under a black wall. Full at the rating it puts 166,383 pounds on a 143 inch circle: a slab engineered to the concrete pad sizing guide and in full contact with the floor, with a berm sized to the tank around it when the liquid is regulated, with cables to structure before the first fill. Black runs warmer in the sun than white, which argues for shade if the liquid must stay cool, and it hides the level, so a sender read at ground level is the gauge.Feed rate times delivery interval is the volume, and the tank sizing calculator does that arithmetic; the reserve and the thermal freeboard on a dense liquid are in the tank sizing guide.
The two 10,500 molds in their grades, and the 10,000 and 12,000
| Part | Gallons | Diameter x height | Empty weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5330300C34 (this tank, black, Chowchilla, 1.9 SG) | 10,500 | 143 x 177 in | 2,600 lb |
| 5330000C34 (black, Lincoln / Philippi) | 10,500 | 142 x 169 in | 2,250 lb |
| 5330000C37-BLACK (black) | 10,500 | 142 x 169 in | 2,250 lb |
| 5330000N29 | 10,500 | 142 x 169 in | 2,500 lb |
| 32026 (water) | 10,000 | 142 x 167 in | 2,170 lb |
| 32074 (water) | 12,000 | 142 x 197 in | 2,482 lb |
The 5330000C34 and C37-BLACK are the black 10,500s from the other plants, and the N29 the other chemical grade in that shell. The 32026 is the 10,000 gallon water tank on the 142 inch base at 167 inches, and the 32074 the 12,000 at 197.

A 3 inch outlet and a vent to match
- Outlet: 3 inch polypropylene female NPT bulkhead fitting, at the base; tell us the liquid when ordering and the fitting is matched to it, with a flanged transition, a flexible connector to hard pipe, and the valve supported off the pad in the material the chemical calls for.
- Access: 18 inch threaded, vented manway, 177 inches up; a platform with a rail for anyone who opens it. Fill by dip tube so the liquid does not foam, vent to outdoors on a fuming chemical, and match the vent to the delivery pump rather than trusting a stock cap.
- Service limit: 120 F / 48 C.
Nearly fifteen feet of liquid above a 3 inch outlet is a strong flooded suction, and the outlet drains a full tank in a working shift; set the pump below the outlet so gravity primes it, with a low-level float to stop it before it draws air. One chemical, one label, one closed manway; and at each opening a light on the wall above the liquid, where a chemical tank shows its age first. In a freezing climate the outlet valve and the first run of pipe get heat trace or insulation; the tank body itself can ice from the top down and come to no harm.
West Coast plants that take two tankers
Bulk coagulant or caustic at a water plant, brine at a food plant, liquid fertilizer at a co-op, and process chemical at a plant that buys by the tanker and stores in the open. If the site rules call for a second wall, the Captor double wall freeboard guide explains what a contained tank gives up in usable volume at this size. Not the wall a fire reserve wants, as the fire-water reservoir design guide makes plain, and Reuse systems dose chemical between storage stages; the industrial water reuse tank topology article maps where this size sits.
From Chowchilla, as a permitted load
The 5330300C34 ships from Chowchilla, California as freight at class 300 as the sheet lists it; at 143 inches across and 177 long on the deck it is a permitted load, and the freight cost estimator prices the lane to your ZIP, with the listed price before freight. A crane stands 2,600 pounds up with straps under the body, never through the manway. Fill it with water to the manway once and hold it, watching the pad edge and the outlet fitting, then drain and dry before the chemical goes in, and the log takes the date and strength of every load after that. Walk the base after the first hard rain; a pad that shifts shows it at the edge first.
