The Snyder Industries 1650 Gallon 30 Degree HDPE Cone Bottom Tank drains its full contents by gravity, which makes it a working choice for batch mixing, settling, and chemical dosing where you need to pull down to the last gallon. It stands 94 inches tall on an 86 x 86 inch footprint and carries a 1.9 specific gravity rating, so this Snyder cone tank is built to hold dense process chemistry, not just water. It ships as a polyethylene cone bottom tank in white from the plant nearest you.
What this tank handles
Filled with water, this 1650 gallon body weighs roughly 13,761 pounds; loaded to its full 1.9 SG rating, it can carry up to about 26,146 pounds of contents, so your cone support stand and pad have to be rated for that worst-case mass before you set it. Plan the structure around the loaded weight, not the empty shell. The drawing shows a flange outlet, a 10-inch PE threaded and vented connection, and a fill cap with a 7-inch access opening. See the technical drawing on this page for fitting placement and elevations, and run your contents through the Tank Sizing Calculator and Tank Sizing Guide to confirm the 1650 gallon size and weight loading match your application.
Chemical compatibility
This tank is rated to 1.9 specific gravity, the highest-rated version of this 1650-gallon cone body we list, so it already covers the densest standard process chemistry and there is no heavier-SG upgrade to step up to. The resin grade is shown as HDLPE with a question mark in our data, so confirm the exact resin with us before you commit it to chemical service. Always verify against the OEM chemical-resistance chart for your exact concentration and operating temperature. The single most common mistake on a chemical cone tank is bolting up the wrong wetted materials, so match the fitting and gasket to each chemical:
| Chemical | Concentration | Fitting | Gasket |
|---|---|---|---|
| Acetic Acid | 60% | PP/PVC | EPDM |
| Aluminum Sulfate | 50% | PVC | EPDM |
| Calcium Chloride | 40% | PVC | EPDM |
| DEF | 32.5% | 316SS | EPDM |
| Ethylene Glycol | 100% | PVC | EPDM |
| Ferric Chloride | 50% | PVC | EPDM |
| Ferric Sulfate | 60% | PVC | EPDM |
| Ferrous Sulfate | 20% | PVC | EPDM |
| Hydrochloric Acid | 37% | PVC | Viton |
| Hydrofluoric Acid | 48% | PP/PVC | Viton |
| Hydrofluosilicic Acid | 26% | PP/PVC | Viton |
| Hydrogen Peroxide | 50% | PVC | Viton |
| Magnesium Chloride | 30% | PVC | EPDM |
| Peracetic Acid | 30% | 316SS | Aflas |
| Phosphoric Acid | 85% | PVC | Viton |
| Polyaluminum Chloride | Confirm strength | PVC | EPDM |
| Potassium Carbonate | 50% | PVC | EPDM |
| Potassium Hydroxide | Saturated | PVC | EPDM |
| Propylene Glycol | Confirm strength | PP/316SS | EPDM |
| Sodium Bisulfate | Confirm strength | PVC/PP | EPDM |
| Sodium Bisulfite | Confirm strength | PVC/PP | EPDM |
| Sodium Carbonate | 30% | PVC | EPDM |
| Sodium Hypochlorite | under 16.5% | PVC | Viton |
| Sodium Thiosulfate | 40% | PVC | EPDM |
| Sulfuric Acid | 98% | CPVC | Viton |
| Urea Solution | 50% | PP/PVC | EPDM |
| Zinc Orthophosphate | Confirm strength | PP/316SS | EPDM |
| Ozonated Water | up to 10 PPM | PVC | EPDM |
Concentration is not specified in our data for polyaluminum chloride, propylene glycol, sodium bisulfate, sodium bisulfite, and zinc orthophosphate, so confirm your strength with us before ordering. Cross-check every wetted component in our Chemical Compatibility Database against your actual concentration and temperature.
Choosing the right cone and containment
For cone angle selection on settling versus draining service, the cone bottom tank buyer's guide walks through 15 versus 30 versus 45 degree cones, and the Snyder Captor Plus 110% containment comparison covers secondary containment if your site is under SPCC.
