The Snyder Industries 200 Gallon Vertical Storage Tank is a crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) tank built for water and heavy-duty liquid storage. Molded in black XLPE and standing 59 inches tall on a compact 36 x 36 inch square footprint, it holds 200 gallons in a vertical profile that fits tight equipment pads, pump houses, and corners where floor space is scarce but vertical clearance is available.
Will it work for your site?
This is a vertical storage tank carrying a 1.9 specific gravity structural rating, which means the wall is built to hold contents considerably denser than water without deforming. Filled with water, the tank holds roughly 1,668 pounds of contents; the 1.9 SG rating puts the tank's design ceiling at about 3,169 pounds of contents, so size and anchor the pad for the loaded weight rather than the empty shell. The 36 x 36 inch footprint and 59-inch height make this a practical 200 gallon tank where a smaller square base matters. If you are matching tank volume to your daily draw or fill schedule, run the numbers through our Tank Sizing Calculator and read the Tank Sizing Guide before you settle on a size.
Why crosslinked polyethylene
Crosslinked polyethylene is a molecularly bonded resin that resists stress cracking and impact better than standard high-density polyethylene, which is why Snyder molds its heavy-duty vertical storage tanks in XLPE rather than HDPE. That extra durability is what justifies the 1.9 SG rating on this tank. For a plain-English look at when crosslinking earns its keep, see Snyder XLPE vs HDPE: When Crosslinking Matters for Chemistry Duty. For fitting locations and exact dimensional detail, consult the technical drawing on this page before you plumb it in.
Mounting and support
An above-ground vertical polyethylene tank of this weight needs a flat, fully supporting base under its entire footprint. For guidance on pouring a foundation that carries a filled tank, read our walkthrough on Concrete Pad Sizing for Above-Ground Polyethylene Tanks. Keep the tank level, support the full base, and size the pad for the loaded weight of the liquid you actually store.
