1,250-gallon natural white cone bottom tank built for full-drain mixing and batch processing. Manufactured by Snyder from cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) rated to handle liquids up to 15.8 pounds per gallon. Cone bottom design provides 100% drainage — no residual liquid left behind between batches.
The 1250 Gallon XLPE Heavy Duty Cone Bottom Tank is designed for chemical processors, water treatment plants, and agricultural operations requiring complete tank drainage. At 1,250 gallons, this cone bottom tank is sized for batch processing, chemical mixing, and applications where complete drainage between cycles is non-negotiable. The cone geometry eliminates the dead volume that flat-bottom tanks leave behind.
Constructed from cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) using a single-piece rotational molding process that eliminates seams, weld lines, and potential leak points. The 1.9 specific gravity rating means this tank is built with significantly heavier wall sections than a standard water tank — necessary to safely contain liquids weighing up to 15.8 pounds per gallon. That extra wall thickness is not optional when you are storing aggressive industrial chemicals. Translucent white walls allow visual level monitoring without opening the tank and reflect sunlight to keep contents cooler. Maximum operating temperature is 100° F / 37° C, with UV stabilizers compounded directly into the resin for outdoor service life.
This tank measures 70 inches tall with a 95-inch diameter, requiring 49.2 square feet of level ground. Empty weight is 300 pounds. At full capacity with a 1.9 SG liquid, expect approximately 20,108 pounds on the foundation. Requires an engineered reinforced concrete foundation designed by a structural professional for the full loaded weight. Must be installed on the manufacturer-supplied or compatible stand rated for the full loaded weight. Never rest a cone bottom tank directly on its apex.
This tank ships without pre-installed fittings, giving you full flexibility to position inlet and outlet connections exactly where your plumbing layout requires. Use polyethylene-compatible bulkhead fittings for all penetrations. The 18" Threaded Vented Manway lid opening provides ample access for interior inspection, cleaning, and installation of float switches, level sensors, or submersible pumps. Use schedule 80 PVC or stainless steel bulkhead fittings on the NPT connections. Install a full-port ball valve and consider a Y-strainer to protect downstream equipment.
Snyder Industries has been a leader in polyethylene tank manufacturing for over 60 years. Their Lincoln, Nebraska facility produces tanks using advanced rotational molding processes with rigorous quality control at every step.
