A 250 gallon certified tank on a 40 inch base
The Snyder 5730100N45 is a white polyethylene vertical liquid storage tank, 40 inches across and 69 inches tall, holding 250 gallons at 79 pounds. It carries the same 1.9 specific gravity wall as the big chemical tanks, rated for 3,962 pounds of contents against 2,085 for water, it is sold with ASTM certification, and at 79 pounds it is the heaviest-walled 250 gallon tank Snyder makes, on a base wide enough to stand without a bracket. A 14 inch manway on top, a 3 year warranty, and it ships as standard LTL freight.

The heavy 250
Snyder's other 250 gallon tanks weigh 70 pounds on a 36 inch base; this one carries 9 pounds more resin on a 40 inch base, 5 inches taller, for the day tank that will be filled with a dense liquid and worked hard outdoors. The wall is built for a liquid nearly twice the density of water and certified to ASTM D1998, the standard rotomolded polyethylene tanks are specified against; the HDPE tank wall thickness guide explains the D1998 sizing logic and why the vapor headspace is where a wall fails first, at any size. Full, it puts 3,962 pounds on a 40 inch circle, which a slab or a paver pad supports, and at nearly twice its width in height it is strapped to a wall. The 250 gallon vertical tank buyers guide compares the shapes at this volume across makers; the tank sizing calculator sizes a day tank to the pump's rate and the refill schedule, and the tank sizing guide covers the reserve.

The 1008100 tanks are the 36 inch 250s at 70 pounds, the N42 in cross-linked resin for oxidizers, the C26 and C34 in the general grades. The 1012900C26 is the 210 gallon step down on that base, and the 5740100N42 lays 275 gallons down to 59 inches on a 47 inch base in cross-linked resin.

Outlet and manway
- Access: 14 inch manway; filled by hose, drum pump or tote pump.
- Outlet: order the bulkhead fitting in the material the chemical calls for; a flexible line to the pump suction and a valve supported off the floor.
- Service limit: 120 F / 48 C.
- Listing: ASTM certification.
Put the dosing pump below the outlet, where it primes by gravity, with a union and a check valve in the suction line. A white 69 inch tank shows its level at a glance; a low-level float switch protects the pump. Keep the manway shut so nothing is lost as vapor, and shade the tank if the chemical is light-sensitive; a 40 inch tank fits a standard spill pallet.
Who buys this tank
Day tanks at small water systems and well houses, chemical feed skids, polymer make-down at a package plant, brine for a softener, and an outdoor day tank in full sun where the heavier wall earns its keep. One chemical, one label, and a rinse whenever the chemical changes.
