The Snyder Industries 120/80/80 Gallon Cubetainer Gravity Feed System is built as a space-efficient gravity-feed storage block, molded in white polyethylene with an 80-gallon working capacity and brass-insert fittings. It stands 91.5 inches tall on a compact 36-by-36-inch footprint, so it stores tall and narrow rather than sprawling across a slab. Filled to capacity with water it carries roughly 667 pounds, the number that should drive your pad design and anchoring decisions on this Snyder white tank.
Will this Snyder 80 gallon Cubetainer work for your site?
The Cubetainer geometry is the reason buyers pick this configuration: a 36 x 36 inch base lets you place tanks side by side or in a row against a wall, while the 91.5-inch height stacks a tall water column that builds usable static head for downstream flow without a pump. The brass inserts give you durable threaded connection points rather than bare molded bosses. One note before you plumb it: published fitting data such as insert thread sizes and port locations is not listed for this SKU, so call 866-418-1777 to confirm the exact insert sizing and outlet placement before you build your manifold. One more thing the name raises: the listed working capacity in our data is 80 gallons; if you are reading the "120" in the model name as usable volume, call us and we will confirm the total system configuration before you size your draw. If you are still weighing this 80 gallon tank against a different capacity or layout, the Tank Sizing Calculator and Tank Sizing Guide walk through demand and footprint so you size for your actual draw rate.
Pad, weight, and the mistake to avoid
At about 667 pounds full across a 36 x 36 inch base, this tank spreads roughly half a pound per square inch of bearing load, but the tall 91.5-inch profile puts the center of gravity high, so it is the geometry, not the pressure, that you have to respect. The most common mistake is setting a tall Cubetainer on uneven or partially supported ground: any rocking or gap under a narrow base concentrates stress and invites tipping when full. Pour or place a flat, continuous pad sized to the footprint, support the tank across its entire base, and keep it dead level. Our guide on concrete pad sizing for above-ground polyethylene tanks covers the ACI framework for above-ground poly storage.
Putting the system to work
This white Snyder tank suits gravity feed water storage where a pump-free downstream supply is the goal, and the modular cube shape makes it straightforward to bank multiple units for more total volume on a tight slab. If your project is reuse-oriented, our overview of industrial water reuse tank topology shows how banded storage trains fit into grey-water, rainwater, and condensate aggregation. For larger reservoir planning, the fire-water reservoir design guide covers NFPA 22 sizing discipline and cold-climate freeze protection.
