2,000 gallons under six feet, with a siphon outlet
The Snyder 32170 is a white high density linear polyethylene vertical liquid storage tank, 96 inches across and 73 inches tall, holding 2,000 gallons at 426 pounds. Its wall is rated for a specific gravity of 1.5, or 25,020 pounds of contents against 16,680 for water, the low shape cannot tip and keeps the 20 inch manway within reach, and the 2 inch outlet carries an internal siphon tube so the tank drains from the floor without a fitting at the very bottom. It ships as oversize freight.
Two ways to buy. Add it to your cart above with freight quoted to your ZIP, or request a written quote for a job that needs paperwork.
Low, wide, and drained from inside
Two thousand gallons at 73 inches goes under a barn loft or a low eave where the tall 2,000s would not, and the eight foot base sits low enough that no strap is needed. A siphon tube outlet draws from the floor of the tank through a fitting set higher on the wall, which keeps the bulkhead out of the sediment and lets the tank sit directly on a pad without a sump; prime it once and it stays primed. The 1.5 wall covers brine, fertilizer solution and coagulant as delivered as well as water. Full, it puts 25,020 pounds on a 96 inch circle at the rating, which a compacted gravel pad or a slab in full contact carries. The 2,000 gallon vertical tank buyers guide compares the low shapes at this volume across makers, and the 64 by 152 inch 2,000 gallon guide covers the tall ones; the tank sizing calculator tells you whether 2,000 gallons covers the draw, and the tank sizing guide covers days of supply.
Snyder's 1,900 to 2,500 gallon verticals
| Part | Gallons | Diameter x height | Empty weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| 32170 (this tank, 1.5 SG, siphon outlet) | 2,000 | 96 x 73 in | 426 lb |
| 5050300C137 (no fitting) | 2,000 | 96 x 84 in | 300 lb |
| 5050000C26 | 2,000 | 90 x 88 in | 340 lb |
| 5050000C37-BLACK | 2,000 | 90 x 88 in | 340 lb |
| 1780200N40 (tall, XLPE) | 1,900 | 72 x 119 in | 445 lb |
| 32200 (1.9 SG, siphon outlet) | 2,500 | 96 x 90 in | 562 lb |
The 5050300C137 is the lighter 2,000 on this same 96 inch base, 11 inches taller, sold without a fitting for the buyer who drills their own. The 5050000 tanks stand 2,000 gallons on a 90 inch base at 88 inches in white and black. The 1780200N40 is the tall cross-linked 1,900 for oxidizers, and the 32200 is the 2,500 gallon step up on this base at 90 inches with the 1.9 wall and the same siphon outlet.

Openings as shipped
- Outlet: 2 inch polypropylene female NPT bulkhead fitting with an internal siphon tube; a flexible connector between the bulkhead and hard pipe, and the valve supported off the pad.
- Access: 20 inch threaded, vented manway.
- Service limit: 120 F / 48 C.
A siphon outlet needs the pump or the gravity line below the tank floor to stay primed, and a foot of drop is enough; if the line ever runs dry, refill the tank above the fitting and open the valve to re-prime. Tee a sight tube off the outlet to read the level, or fit a float gauge on the manway. In a freezing climate insulate or drain the outlet valve and the first run of pipe; the body takes ice from the top down without harm.
In service
Well storage under a low roof, a rain cistern beside a barn, irrigation and stock water, fertilizer solution and brine at the 1.5 rating, and a small fire reserve where the low center of gravity counts. One liquid per tank, labeled.
Freight and unloading
At 96 inches across the 32170 is oversize freight (NMFC 156600-02) on a flatbed at a lane rate; the freight cost estimator prices the move to your ZIP, and the price on this page is before freight. A forklift with long forks or four people roll 426 pounds onto the pad. Fill it to the manway once, prime the siphon, and check the outlet fitting before it goes to work. The first fill is the only cheap time to find a problem, so do it in daylight with someone watching the base.
