The black sixteen hundred on the same ninety-five inch shell
This is the black listing of Snyder's 1,600 gallon heavy duty cone bottom tank. The 8330000N51 is listed 95 inches long, 95 inches wide and 72 inches tall, at 277 pounds empty and 277 pounds shipping, with the material field reading Polyethylene and the colour given as black. Heavy duty is the maker's own name word, and what the sheet puts behind it are figures rather than description: the wall is rated at a specific gravity of 1.9, and the max contents figure is 25,354 pounds against 13,344 pounds of water at 8.34 pounds per gallon. The opening on top is an 18 inch threaded vented manway. The outlet field reads 1 Manway / Lid, which names an opening rather than a discharge, and no discharge size is published. The service limit is 100 F / 37 C and the freight class reads 400. No cone angle, no inlet, no stand and no warranty term appear on this sheet.

Colour, rating, and the neighbour that holds fifty gallons more
Three rows on this sheet decide most orders, and they are worth taking in order. The first is 8330000N45, which is the identical shell, the identical 277 pounds and the identical 1.9 rating in natural white. Nothing else separates the two listings on this sheet, so the choice is genuinely about light and about the yard. Black is what you want outdoors, in full sun, where you would rather nothing grew in the tank and the wall is not going to pass light into the product. White is the choice in a process room where an operator wants to see the liquid line from the floor. Neither buys or costs you a gallon. The second row is 1910000N42 at 1,650 gallons, fifty more than this tank, on a smaller 86 inch circle at 94 inches tall and 300 pounds. That is the row people overlook and then wish they had not: if your pad is already poured to something under eight feet, or the bund walls are up, the narrower vessel with slightly more volume may be the only one that fits without concrete work. The third is 5010000N48, which puts 1,500 gallons on a 64 inch circle at 141 inches, and that is the tank for a site with no floor and plenty of roof. This one is the opposite trade: 72 inches of shell means it goes under a low structure that a twelve foot vessel cannot approach, and it pays for that with ground. Underneath all three, the same rule holds. A cone bottom tank has no flat floor and cannot stand on its own bottom. This sheet publishes no stand, no legs, no skirt, no ring and no bolt pattern, so the support is a separate item and this page states no stand height, no rated load and no stand material. What it does give an engineer is the loading: 277 pounds empty, 13,344 pounds of water, 25,354 pounds at the rating, concentrated into stand feet rather than spread across a slab, which is why a cone foundation is designed rather than poured to suit. Work the support out with the cone bottom tank stand compatibility matrix, read the complete buyer's guide at this capacity and the with-stand version of it before a part number is fixed, size the volume with the tank sizing calculator, and take the freeboard from the tank sizing guide.
Reading four listings that share every dimension
| Part | Gallons | Length x width x height | Empty weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| 8330000N51 (this tank, black) | 1600 | 95 x 95 x 72 in | 277 lb |
| 8330000N45 (natural white listing) | 1600 | 95 x 95 x 72 in | 277 lb |
| 8330000N42 (XLPE heavy duty listing) | 1600 | 95 x 95 x 72 in | 277 lb |
| 8330000N48 (XLPE heavy duty listing) | 1600 | 95 x 95 x 72 in | 277 lb |
| 1910000N42 (more gallons, smaller circle) | 1650 | 86 x 86 x 94 in | 300 lb |
| 5010000N48 (tall narrow column) | 1500 | 64 x 64 x 141 in | 315 lb |
Cover the part number column and the first four rows are one line of data repeated. Same 1,600 gallons, same 95 by 95 by 72 inch envelope, same 277 pounds. The sheet separates them by name and by colour and offers no other explanation, so this page prints what it says and leaves the theorising alone. Practically, that means the choice inside the top four is not a performance choice at all, and you should pick on colour, on what an existing installation already uses, and on what a drawing or a spares list already names. Matching the part number that is already on site is worth more than it sounds when somebody has to order a gasket in three years. The rows that do change the answer are the bottom two, and both change it through geometry rather than through capacity. 1910000N42 buys fifty more gallons and a foot less width, which is the version that fits an existing pad. 5010000N48 buys a quarter of the footprint and pays in height, which is the version that fits a crowded floor with a tall roof. Take the shape the building gives you and let the rating settle what the paperwork leaves open. On the containment side, where this vessel stands over a surface that would have to be recovered, the Captor containment comparison sets the contained route against the alternatives before a bund is designed around it.

An eighteen inch threaded vented manway and nothing else published
- The manway and its vent: 18 inches, threaded, vented, and the vent is part of the top fitting on this sheet rather than a separate specification. That air path is what keeps a pump from loading the wall when it draws the tank down, so keep it clear, inspect it every time the lid comes off, and never blank or tape it.
- Where it sits: 72 inches of shell plus the stand puts the lid above head height in most installations. Plan a fixed ladder or platform and a fall protection routine with the structure, and bring the fill to a coupling at working level rather than asking somebody to carry a hose up.
- The outlet field: it reads 1 Manway / Lid on this sheet, which names an opening and not a discharge. Printed as it reads, with no outlet size, thread, bulkhead or valve claimed. Tell us the line size and the product and we will confirm what this part number carries before it is ordered.
- The cone: no angle field appears on this sheet and no angle appears in the product name, so none is stated here. Ask if drainage behaviour is the deciding factor and we will confirm the geometry against the part number rather than describing it.
- What hangs underneath: valve, reducer and first pipe run on steelwork off the stand, never on the tank, with a flexible connector at the first joint. There are 25,354 pounds of rated contents above that point when the tank is full.
- Inlet, warranty and NMFC: none of the three is on this sheet and none is claimed. Ratings are a specific gravity of 1.9, 13,344 pounds of water at 1,600 gallons, 25,354 pounds of max contents, and a service limit of 100 F / 37 C.
A black shell changes one thing about the fitting plan that is easy to miss. You cannot see the level through the wall, so the instrument is not optional the way it half is on a white tank, and choosing it late is how people end up with a gauge that reads well in the brochure and badly in the yard. Settle it while the fittings are still on paper.
Outdoor bulk holding for dense product
The black 1.9 rated shell in a low, wide shape is an outdoor tank first. It goes into agricultural retail yards holding heavy liquid fertiliser and crop input blends under a canopy, mineral and wash plant slurry duty on a working site, concentrated salt and brine storage outside a process building, spent liquor and pickling solution at a metals plant, thickened sludge at a treatment works, and bulk chemical holding on a pad where the tank sits in sun all year. The colour is part of that: black keeps light out of the product, which matters for anything that grows or degrades in daylight, and it is the standard choice for a vessel that will never be indoors. The cone is what makes the duty work, because the vessel keeps draining toward one low point rather than leaving a ring of product on a flat floor at every changeover, and at 1,600 gallons that ring is a disposal cost rather than an inconvenience. Check the product in our chemical compatibility reference before the fittings are chosen; the gasket follows the chemistry, not the tank.

Arkansas freight on a squat six foot shipment
Marked Tree, Arkansas is the plant on this sheet, which makes the Delta, the Gulf states and the lower Midwest short lanes and the far West a long one. The freight class reads 400, a numeric class rather than a mode, and no NMFC number is published. The shipping size is 95 inches by 95 inches by 72 inches at 277 pounds, which is light for its bulk, so this shipment is priced by the space it occupies far more than by what it weighs. Price the lane to your ZIP with the freight cost estimator; the listed price is before freight. No crane, rigging, permit or escort detail is published on this sheet and none is claimed here; agree the offload arrangement with us before the truck is booked. Have the stand set, levelled and anchored in advance so the tank goes straight from the trailer onto its structure. Sling under the body, never from the manway, and restrain it as soon as it is upright. Then prove it with clean water before any product arrives: hold the 13,344 pound load, walk the manway seal, the cone joint, the stand feet and the pad edge with a torch, and leave it standing full overnight. Mark the vent on the outside of the shell with paint while you are there, because on a black tank in poor light it is the one thing somebody will cap by mistake. A strap that is checked once a season is a strap that holds; put it on the same calendar as the gutters.
