1,500 gallons of 1.9 SG liquid storage on a 65 inch base
The Snyder 32108 is a white high density linear polyethylene vertical liquid storage tank, 65 inches in diameter and 114 inches tall, holding 1,500 gallons at 353 pounds empty. Its wall is rated for a specific gravity of 1.9, which puts the maximum contents at 23,769 pounds against 12,510 for water, and it ships with a 2 inch polypropylene female NPT bulkhead outlet and a 20 inch threaded, vented manway. It is the tall, narrow way to store 1,500 gallons of something heavier than water, and at 65 inches across it still moves as standard LTL freight.

Tall and narrow, by choice
The 65 inch base is the reason to buy this tank over the 86 inch low profile tanks of the same volume: it fits a chemical room corner, a spill pallet or a trailer bay where a seven foot circle will not go, and its 114 inch height keeps the pump suction flooded with a tall column. The cost is reach, since the 20 inch manway is nine and a half feet up, and wind, since a tall empty shell needs strapping. The 1,500 gallon vertical tank buyers guide compares the tall and low shapes in this class, and the tank sizing calculator and tank sizing guide settle the volume against the delivery interval.
The 1,300 to 1,550 gallon field
| Part | Gallons | Diameter x height | Empty weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| 32108 (this tank, 1.9 SG) | 1,500 | 65 x 114 in | 353 lb |
| 1770000C34 (low profile) | 1,500 | 86 x 72 in | 260 lb |
| 1770000N42 (low profile, 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 |
The 1770000 tanks put the same 1,500 gallons under a 72 inch ceiling on an 86 inch base and weigh 93 pounds less; the N42 is the cross-linked version for oxidizers. The 1840000C26 is the closest shape to this tank, 1 inch narrower and 10 inches taller for 50 more gallons at 18 pounds less. The 1830400N40 splits the difference at 72 by 87 inches for 1,300 gallons.

Openings and the headspace
- Inlet: 1-1/2 inch fitting near the top.
- Outlet: 2 inch polypropylene female NPT bulkhead fitting at the base; adapter, flexible transition, valve supported off the floor.
- Access: 20 inch threaded, vented manway.
- Service limit: 120 F / 48 C.
Two things about a tall polyethylene tank are worth reading before it is filled. The vent has to breathe at the rate the tank is filled and emptied, and the atmospheric vent capacity guide works the API 2000 numbers for exactly this size. And the wall fails first in the vapor headspace, not on the liquid side, which is why the HDPE tank wall thickness guide tells operators to inspect above the liquid line.
What it is bought for
Brine, fertilizer, treatment chemicals up to 1.9 specific gravity, and water where a heavy wall is wanted outdoors; with water in it, one unit of the fire reserve the fire-water reservoir design guide describes.
On the truck
The 32108 ships palletized as LTL freight (NMFC 156600-02) at a class rate; the freight cost estimator gives it for your ZIP, and the listed price is before freight. A liftgate and two people handle 353 pounds. Strap it before it is filled, water-test in stages, and check the outlet fitting after the hold. Mark the vent and the outlet on the outside of the shell so nobody caps the wrong one in the dark.
