A 2,000 gallon black cone bottom tank for the yard or the plant room
Snyder Industries part number 5070000N46 is a 2,000 gallon cone bottom tank in black crosslinked linear polyethylene (XLPE). It is 90 inches in diameter and 102 inches tall, weighs 325 lb empty, and has an 18 inch threaded vented manway on top. The wall is rated for liquids up to 1.5 specific gravity, and the service limit is 100 F (37 C). 2,000 gallons of water weighs 16,680 lb (2,000 x 8.34). The black wall keeps sunlight out of the contents, and the cone drains every gallon to one point at the bottom.

What it is for
A 2,000 gallon cone is a common size for a batch tank, a settling tank or a holding tank that has to be fully drained between uses: liquid fertilizer at a farm or retailer, wash and rinse water, treated water, and process liquids no heavier than 1.5 times water. The cone sends everything to the bottom outlet, so there is no ring of product left on a flat floor to pump or shovel out.
Choose black over white when the tank sits outside or under skylights. Light through a translucent wall grows algae in water and degrades some products; black stops it. The cost is that you cannot see the level, so plan a gauge; the level gauge selection guide compares the options. At 102 inches tall, add the stand and the clearance above the manway, and leave room under the cone for the valve and receiving line.
What to check before you buy
- Outlet. No outlet size is listed for 5070000N46. Give us the line size and valve and we will confirm the fitting before you order.
- Manway. 18 inch threaded vented manway on top. Keep the vent clear so the tank can breathe while it drains.
- Stand. Bought separately; see the cone bottom tank stand compatibility matrix and the drawing linked under Technical Drawing on this page.
- Liquid. 1.5 specific gravity maximum. Check it in the chemical compatibility guide; for this tank buyers most often open urea solution, DEF, magnesium chloride, calcium chloride and sodium carbonate.
- Labels and containment. Our guide to tank labels and signage and the Captor containment comparison cover both.
