The Snyder Industries 200 Gallon ASTM XLPE Heavy Duty Vertical Storage Tank is a crosslinked polyethylene vertical tank built for demanding liquid storage where a standard HDPE wall would be underspec'd. It stands 69 inches tall on a compact 33 x 33 inch footprint, holds 200 gallons, is molded in natural white, and carries a 1.9 specific gravity rating - the highest-density rating in this vertical storage tank line, engineered to hold contents heavier than water up to a rated 3,169 lb of liquid load. If you are cross-shopping a 200 gallon vertical storage tank, this is the heavy-duty XLPE build, not a basic water barrel.
Will this tank work for your job
Filled with plain water, this tank carries roughly 1,668 lb of contents; its 1.9 SG rating means the wall is validated for denser liquids up to 3,169 lb before you reach the structural ceiling. Use that number, not just gallons, when you plan the pad and the tank's duty. The 33 x 33 inch footprint drops onto a small square pad, and at 69 inches of height it stays stable without a tall, tippy profile. Crosslinked linear polyethylene (XLPE) is the differentiator here - the crosslinked wall resists stress cracking and impact better than standard HDPE, which is why Snyder rates it heavy duty. If you are unsure whether 200 gallons matches your daily draw or reserve target, run the numbers with our Tank Sizing Calculator and the Tank Sizing Guide before you order.
Fittings and how your plumbing connects
The fittings shown on the technical drawing on this page give you molded inlet, vent, and access provisions out of the box. The 10" PE threaded-vented fitting is your vented top port - it takes a threaded cap or adapter, so a threaded connection already exists before you plan plumbing. The 7" x 10" flat fitting is a molded mounting land that accepts a bulkhead fitting for a side or bottom outlet, and the fill cap with 7" access serves as your fill and inspection port. An additional flat fitting and a flange provision round out the layout. When you install a bulkhead into a flat land, match the gasket material to your stored liquid - the tank supplies the port, you supply the correctly gasketed fitting - so the connection seals for the specific contents you are running.
XLPE service scope and the mistake to avoid
This tank is built for water and denser non-potable liquids up to the 1.9 SG ceiling, which is the highest-density tier offered - a buyer cross-shopping a 1.0 or 1.5 SG water tank steps up to this build to cover heavier duty without re-buying later. Because XLPE is a chemical-grade crosslinked wall, confirm suitability per liquid before you commit; our guide on Snyder XLPE vs HDPE walks through when the crosslinked wall earns its keep. The most expensive error on a tank like this is ordering on gallons alone and forgetting the load rating: size the pad, anchoring, and any elevated stand for the full 3,169 lb rated load, not the 1,668 lb of plain water. See Concrete Pad Sizing for Above-Ground Polyethylene Tanks for the ACI framework on supporting that fully loaded 3,169 lb weight, and if you are using the 200 gallons as a fire or rural reserve volume, the Fire-Water Reservoir Tank Design guide covers NFPA 22 sizing and cold-climate freeze protection.
