A 200 gallon black cross-linked tank under five feet tall
The Snyder Industries 200 gallon ASTM XLPE black heavy duty vertical tank, part number 1540300N48, is a crosslinked linear polyethylene tank 36 inches in diameter and 59 inches tall, weighing 65 lb empty. The wall is rated for liquids up to 1.9 specific gravity and for service up to 140 F. Two hundred gallons of water weighs 1,668 lb; two hundred gallons of a 1.9 liquid weighs 3,169 lb. Snyder covers it with a 3 year warranty. It is moulded at Snyder's plant in Merced, California. Black keeps light off the contents; cross-linking gives the wall its toughness.

Black and cross-linked: two choices in one tank
Most buyers choose between a black wall and a cross-linked wall. This tank is both. Black blocks light, which matters for liquids that break down in sunlight and for water you want kept free of algae. Cross-linked polyethylene, XLPE, has its polymer chains bonded together during moulding, which makes the wall tougher and more resistant to stress cracking than standard polyethylene, and it carries a higher service limit, 140 F here. Our guide to when cross-linking matters for chemical duty explains when that is worth paying for.
The trade with black is that you cannot see the level and the wall gains heat in direct sun. Plan a sight tube or a level gauge, and if the tank stands outdoors in a hot climate, give it shade so a warm liquid stays well inside the 140 F limit. Check the liquid itself in our chemical compatibility guide before it goes in.
At 36 inches across and 59 inches tall, the tank holds 200 gallons in a moderate footprint that stays under five feet high. It fits against a wall, inside a containment area or beside a dosing skid without towering over the equipment around it, and an adult can see and reach the top.
What to check before you buy
- The base. Full of a 1.9 liquid it is more than a ton and a half on a 36 inch circle. It needs a flat, level surface touching the whole bottom; the concrete pad sizing guide explains the reasoning.
- The openings. No outlet or manway size is listed for this tank on this page. Tell us the connections you need and we will confirm them from Snyder's drawing before it ships.
- Containment. If the liquid is hazardous, plan the containment around the tank before it arrives, and size it to the full 200 gallons.
- The drawing. Snyder's drawing for 1540300N48 is linked under Technical Drawing on this page.
ASTM in the name is Snyder's heavy duty designation. No ASTM standard number is listed for this tank here; if your specification names one, ask us and we will confirm it with Snyder in writing. Size the volume with the tank sizing calculator and the tank sizing guide.

Shipping and receiving
The tank ships LTL at freight class 300 from Merced, California, 36 by 36 by 59 inches and 65 lb. The listed price is before freight; the freight cost estimator gives the cost to your ZIP. At the tailgate, check the part number against 1540300N48 on the bill of lading, look the wall and base over for transit damage, and note any damage on the paperwork before you sign. Fill it with water first, leave it a day, and check the base and every connection before it carries anything else.
