The Snyder Industries 1100 Gallon Heavy Duty Vertical Storage Tank is a natural-white polyethylene vertical storage tank built for serious bulk-water duty, carrying a 1.9 specific-gravity rating. It holds 1,100 gallons of water and is engineered with a heavy-duty wall that supports denser liquids up to that 1.9 rating. If you are sizing a vertical storage tank for bulk water, rainwater capture, or industrial reuse, this is the kind of heavy-duty white vertical storage tank that earns its keep on a long-service site.
Will it work for your site?
Plan your slab and supports around the loaded weight, not the empty shell. Filled with water, this tank carries roughly 9,174 pounds of contents; at its full 1.9 specific-gravity rating it is built to hold up to about 17,431 pounds of contents. That spread is the whole point of the heavy-duty wall: water weighs the same in any tank, but the 1.9 rating means the tank itself is engineered to support denser liquids without compromising the structure. Match your foundation to the maximum rated load so the pad and any tie-downs are never the weak link. Confirm the exact height, diameter, and footprint against the technical drawing on this page before you commit to a location, and run your capacity and square-footage numbers through our Tank Sizing Calculator and the Tank Sizing Guide first.
Foundation planning
An 1,100-gallon vertical tank at full water weight needs a properly engineered base. Our guide on concrete pad sizing for above-ground polyethylene tanks walks through the ACI 360R-10 framework so the slab is sized for the loaded tank, not guessed. For grey-water, rainwater, and HVAC-condensate aggregation setups, our industrial water reuse tank topology guide covers how to band quality and sequence treatment stages around storage like this.
The mistake to avoid
Do not under-build the foundation by sizing to water weight alone. The 1.9 specific-gravity rating exists so this tank can hold contents denser than water, and the published maximum rated contents weight of 17,431 pounds is what your pad, anchoring, and any containment must be designed around. If your liquid is denser than water, brine and fertilizer solutions included, verify its specific gravity against the 1.9 rating before filling, and ask us about gasketing and fittings rated for that service. Outlet and fitting sizes are not pre-specified for this unit, so confirm fitting placement, outlet locations, and gasket materials against the technical drawing on this page or by calling us before you finalize your plumbing layout.
