The Snyder Industries Supertainer is a 120-gallon IBC tote built from 304 stainless steel rather than the rotomolded polyethylene found on most totes. Because the wall is metal rather than polymer, its specific-gravity rating is listed as "No" - there is no SG polymer ladder to step up here. If you have been searching for an IBC tote, tote tank, or stainless steel tank, this is that tank.
Will it work for your setup?
The Supertainer holds 120 gallons in a 48 in long by 42 in wide by 23.25 in tall envelope. That low, wide profile sits on a 48.0 x 42.0 in standard pallet footprint, which helps with forklift and pallet-jack handling and staging. Filled with water it carries about 1,001 lb - and that figure is water at 1.0 specific gravity. A heavier fluid raises the contents weight proportionally to capacity times SG (a 1.4-SG fluid puts roughly 1,400 lb of liquid in the same 120 gallons), so size your floor rating, lifting points, and forklift capacity to your actual fluid, not to water. Use the Tank Sizing Calculator and the Tank Sizing Guide to confirm 120 gallons and this footprint fit your process before you commit.
Where it fits in your container plan
If you are weighing formats, our guide on when to buy a tote, IBC, drum, cube, or tank walks through the tradeoffs. For metered or dosing service, the pump skid design guide covers stainless frame engineering, drip-pan containment, and leak detection. If the application falls under hazardous-waste storage, read up on RCRA 40 CFR 264.193 secondary containment so your containment and inspection cadence are planned before delivery.
The mistake to avoid
Because 304 stainless carries no specific-gravity rating, the right question shifts from "what SG can the wall hold" to "is my chemistry, at my concentration and temperature, compatible with this build." And 304 stainless is only part of that answer: gaskets, seals, and the materials at the ports are common failure points on stainless totes, so confirm compatibility of the gasket, seal, and any fitting materials, not just the 304 wall. Because the wall is opaque metal, plan for a sight gauge or level sensor rather than visual level checks.
This Supertainer ships LTL freight from Michigan, quoted live to your ZIP. Freight is based on the empty tank's dimensions and class, not the filled weight, so do not conflate the 1,001 lb water figure with shipping cost. Get an exact number with the Freight Cost Estimator or call 866-418-1777 and we will price it to your delivery point. For broader material and chemistry questions, our Chemical Compatibility Database is the place to start.
