The Snyder Industries 22-gallon vertical liquid storage tank is a compact white HDPE vessel built for tight-footprint water and liquid storage where a full-size vertical tank simply will not fit. It stands 23 inches tall on an 18-inch diameter footprint (18 x 18 in. envelope), holding 22 gallons in an opaque polyethylene body. With a 1.9 specific gravity rating, this Snyder vertical tank is structurally rated to carry contents heavier than water, which gives you real weight headroom when you move past plain water service.
Will it work for your application?
At an 18-inch diameter and 23 inches tall, this tank slots into utility closets, equipment skids, truck beds, and pump houses where space is the constraint. Full of water, the tank and contents weigh about 183 pounds, so a standard above-ground pad or shelf rated for that load handles it without special engineering. The 1.9 SG rating means the wall is sized for a maximum rated contents weight of 349 pounds (22 gal x 8.34 lb/gal x 1.9) - so against the 183 lb full-water figure you have roughly 166 pounds of additional load capacity for denser liquids. Size your pad or shelf to that 349 lb worst case, not the water number. If you are unsure how 22 gallons maps to your day tank, batch, or reserve needs, run the numbers through our Tank Sizing Calculator or read the Tank Sizing Guide before you buy.
Specs and what to verify
This is an opaque white HDPE vertical storage tank, so light transmission is low and you will not get an at-a-glance liquid level through the wall the way a translucent tank allows. We do not list individual port or fitting positions for this tank here - the technical drawing on this page is the authority for fitting locations, sizes, and overall dimensions, so confirm it matches your plumbing layout before ordering. The single most common mistake on a compact vertical like this is treating the 1.9 SG rating as a license to ignore chemical compatibility: the rating governs weight loading, not chemical resistance. Heavier-than-water liquids are within the structural envelope, but always confirm the specific liquid is compatible with HDPE at your operating temperature and concentration.
Where it fits in your system
Because of its small footprint, this Snyder HDPE storage tank works well as a make-up reservoir, a metering or day tank feeding a larger system, or a compact reserve for rainwater and reuse loops. If you are aggregating grey-water, rainwater, or HVAC condensate, our guide on industrial water reuse tank topology covers how small banded vessels stage into larger storage trains. Mounting it above grade on a slab? Our walkthrough on concrete pad sizing for above-ground polyethylene tanks covers the load math even at this scale.
