A 2,000 gallon heavy duty crosslinked polyethylene vertical tank, 90 inches across and 88 inches tall
The Snyder Industries 2000 Gallon ASTM XLPE Heavy Duty Vertical Storage Tank, part number 8130000N42, is a flat bottom tank moulded in crosslinked linear polyethylene, 90 inches in diameter and 88 inches tall, weighing 475 lb empty. It comes in natural white with an 18 inch threaded vented manway on top. The wall is rated for liquids up to 1.9 specific gravity, the heavy duty rating: 2,000 gallons of water weighs 16,680 lb (2,000 x 8.34), and at 1.9 the tank is built for contents up to 31,692 lb. The service limit is 140 F (60 C). Snyder backs it with a 3 year warranty. Natural white lets you read the level through the wall in daylight.

Under seven and a half feet, rated for a dense liquid
At 88 inches tall this is a 2,000 gallon tank that goes under a low ceiling: a little over seven feet of clear height, plus room above the manway for a fill line and a vent, on a 90 inch circle. The 1.9 rating is for the liquids that make a standard tank the wrong buy: brines, concentrated acids and bases, dense fertilizer solutions and anything else well above the weight of water. Crosslinking ties the polymer chains together, which gives the wall more resistance to stress cracking and to many chemicals than a standard linear polyethylene wall; our note on when crosslinking matters for chemistry duty covers how to decide. A rotationally moulded tank carries its load on the whole floor, so up to 31,692 lb bears on the full 90 inch circle; pour the slab level and in full contact, with a berm where the liquid is regulated. Where the rules call for containment, the Captor double wall freeboard guide works out what a contained tank leaves usable at this volume. Run the volume against your draw and your delivery interval in the tank sizing calculator and take the freeboard advice from the tank sizing guide.
What to check before you buy
- The liquid. The 1.9 rating covers liquids up to 1.9 times the weight of water. Check the liquid against polyethylene before you order, and if it is heavier than 1.9 or runs warmer than 140 F in service, tell us; that is a different tank.
- The outlet. This page lists the manway, not a bottom fitting. Tell us the liquid and the draw-off you want and we will confirm what this tank takes, in what size and material, before anything is drilled.
- The manway. 18 inch threaded and vented, 88 inches off the pad. A tied-off platform ladder reaches it; a fixed platform is better if anyone opens it weekly. On a liquid that fumes, run the vent to where the fumes should go.
- The drawing. Snyder's drawing for this tank is linked under Technical Drawing on this page and shows the manway position and the base.

Shipping and receiving
The tank ships LTL at freight class 300, 90 by 90 by 88 inches on a skid, 475 lb, from Snyder's plant at Marked Tree, Arkansas. The listed price is before freight; the freight cost estimator gives the lane cost to your ZIP. Unload with a forklift and straps under the body, never a sling through the manway. At the tailgate, check the part number against 8130000N42 on the bill of lading and walk round the base for transit damage. Fill it with water the first time, let it stand, and look at the pad edge and the base fitting before the working liquid goes in.
