1,500 gallons under a six foot ceiling
The Snyder 8120100N45 is a low profile chemical tank: 1,500 gallons in a white polyethylene shell that is 86 inches across and only 72 inches tall, weighing 270 pounds. It carries the 1.9 specific gravity wall, rated for 23,769 pounds of contents against 12,510 for the same volume of water, and it is the shape to buy when the chemical room, the mezzanine or the trailer has a ceiling that a taller tank would hit. At 86 inches it still ships as standard LTL freight.

Wide and short, on purpose
Spreading 1,500 gallons across an 86 inch floor lowers the center of gravity, keeps the 18 inch manway within reach from a step, and lets the tank slide under ductwork and cable tray. The cost is the floor: an 86 inch circle in full contact with a level pad, carrying up to 23,769 pounds at the rating. The 93 x 60 inch 1,500 gallon buyers guide covers the low profile shapes in this class, and the 64 x 116 inch 1,500 gallon buyers guide covers the tall ones, if you want the comparison before you commit to a footprint. The tank sizing calculator confirms the volume against the feed rate, and the chemical compatibility database confirms the resin against the liquid.
The 86 x 72 inch tanks and their neighbors
| Part | Gallons | Diameter x height | Empty weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| 8120100N45 (this tank) | 1,500 | 86 x 72 in | 270 lb |
| 1770000N45 | 1,500 | 86 x 72 in | 260 lb |
| 1770000N42 (XLPE) | 1,500 | 86 x 72 in | 260 lb |
| 1830400N40 | 1,300 | 72 x 87 in | 290 lb |
| 1840000C26 | 1,550 | 64 x 124 in | 335 lb |
Snyder makes the 86 by 72 inch, 1,500 gallon tank in more than one mold. The 8120100N45 is 10 pounds heavier than the 1770000N45; both are linear resin with the 1.9 rating, and the 1770000N42 is the cross-linked version for oxidizers. The other two rows show what the low profile saves: the 1830400N40 reaches 87 inches for 200 fewer gallons, and the 1840000C26 climbs to 124 inches on a 64 inch base for 50 more.

Outlet and manway
- Outlet: 2 inch, low on the sidewall.
- Access: 18 inch threaded, vented manway.
- Service limit: 120 F / 48 C.
On a low tank the level sender has a short range and an easy job; the level gauge selection guide matches sender type to chemical. For secondary containment, a wide tank needs a wide berm, and the Snyder Captor 110 percent containment comparison shows where a double wall tank is the smaller footprint once the berm is drawn.
Who buys this tank
Bulk treatment chemicals at a plant with a low chemical room, process reagents on a mezzanine, and fertilizer or brine on a farm trailer where a tall tank would be top-heavy on the road. The tank sizing guide covers the delivery-interval math for a bulk tank.
Delivery day
The 8120100N45 ships as LTL freight (NMFC 156600-01) on a pallet; the freight cost estimator gives the class rate for your ZIP, and the listed price is before freight. At 270 pounds it comes off a liftgate with a pallet jack. Set it on its pad, hard-pipe the outlet through a flexible transition, and water-test it to the manway before the first chemical arrives.
