Snyder Industries 120 Gallon ASTM Black Heavy Duty Vertical Storage Tank

A working supply that stays in the dark

A 120 gallon tank is usually a working supply: a day tank for a dosing pump, a batch tank, a top-up reserve for a sprayer, or water held next to a wash station. This one stands 51 inches tall on a 34 inch circle, with the top at about chest height, so it is easy to fill and check from the floor, and the footprint fits against a wall or beside a bench.

Black is the reason to choose it over a natural tank. The wall stops light, which keeps algae out of stored water and protects liquids that break down in sunlight, so it suits a tank outside, under a greenhouse roof, or in a bright room. Black also absorbs heat in direct sun, and the service limit is 120 F, so shade it in hot weather.

The heavy duty wall carries a 1.9 specific gravity rating, so liquids nearly twice as dense as water are within it. If the liquid is not water, check our chemical compatibility guide before you order, and call us with anything not listed. For a reserve that sits outside through winter, our rural water reserve and freeze protection guide covers the cold.

What to check before you buy

1. The base. Flat, level and touching the whole bottom; full of a dense liquid it is close to a ton. Our concrete pad sizing guide covers outdoor slabs.
2. Openings. No outlet or manway size is stated for this tank on this page. If it feeds a pump, tell us the suction size; we will confirm the openings from Snyder's drawing before it ships.
3. Level. A black wall hides the liquid. On a day tank feeding a pump, a sight tube or a low level switch keeps the pump from running dry.
4. Restraint. At 50 lb empty it moves easily; strap it to a wall or frame.
5. Drawing. Snyder's drawing for 5700100N51 is linked under Technical Drawing on this page.

The tank sizing calculator and the tank sizing guide help you check whether 120 gallons is enough.
