Snyder Industries 130 Gallon ASTM XLPE Heavy Duty Vertical Storage Tank

Small enough to carry, strong enough for dense liquids

Two people can carry a 45 lb tank across a yard or down a ramp, and a 29 inch body fits through many interior doorways on a hand truck, so this tank goes where a forklift does not: a basement, a back room, a greenhouse, a job trailer. Measure the clear width of the door before you order. At 51 inches tall the top is around chest height, close enough to fill from a hose and to see inside.

The heavy duty cross-linked wall is what separates it from an everyday water tank. With a 1.9 specific gravity rating it handles liquids nearly twice the weight of water, and cross-linked polyethylene is the resin Snyder picks for harder chemistry duty; our article on when cross-linking matters for chemistry duty lays out the difference. Before anything other than water goes in, check it in our chemical compatibility guide and keep it at or below 140 F.

The natural white wall shows the level from outside but lets light in, so water in sun will grow algae. Keep drinking water indoors or shaded. We can send the listing paperwork if you need it. Our rural water reserve and freeze protection guide is useful if the tank will sit outside through a cold winter.

What to check before you buy

1. What it sits on. Flat, level and touching the whole base. Full of a 1.9 liquid it is over a ton, so a framed floor needs checking; outdoors, see our concrete pad sizing guide.
2. Openings. No outlet or manway size is given for this tank on this page. Tell us your pipe size and the connection you are making, and we will confirm the openings from Snyder's drawing before it ships.
3. Restraint. Strap it to a wall or frame; a tall, light tank tips easily when empty.
4. Drawing. Snyder's drawing for 1007300N42 is linked under Technical Drawing on this page.

Work out whether 130 gallons covers your use with the tank sizing calculator and the tank sizing guide.
