The Snyder Industries 2500 Gallon ASTM XLPE Vertical Storage Tank (SKU 5090300N40) is a crosslinked linear polyethylene (XLPE) vertical storage tank standing 98 inches tall on a 96-inch (8-ft) diameter footprint. Molded in natural white resin, it carries a 1.5 specific gravity rating, meaning it is built to hold contents weighing up to 1.5 times as much as water. That rating is what lets one tank cover bulk water storage, fire-water reserve, rainwater capture, and heavier stored liquids without stepping up to a specialty vessel.
Will it work for your site?
Filled with plain water, this vertical storage tank carries roughly 20,850 lb of contents; at its full 1.5 SG ceiling the contents can reach about 31,275 lb. Before you load it, confirm your liquid's specific gravity is at or below 1.5 — the 31,275 lb figure is the 1.5 SG maximum, not a headroom number. That load has to land on a properly engineered, level pad, so plan a firm bearing area at least the full 96-inch diameter and read our concrete pad sizing guide (ACI 360R-10 framework) before you set it. Not sure this is the right capacity for your draw-down or reserve target? Run the numbers with our Tank Sizing Calculator and Tank Sizing Guide.
Fittings and access
Per the technical drawing on this page, this tank is configured with an 18" PE threaded/vented fitting up top for fill and venting, a manway with 15" access for interior inspection and entry, and a flange plus a 2-3" S.U.M.O. fitting for your plumbing connections (inlet and outlet). Map each of those to your inlet, outlet, vent, and overflow, and always confirm the fitting sizes and locations against the technical drawing shown here before you plumb the tank. Match your gaskets and bulkhead hardware to the service liquid — and to the tank's load rating — so nothing at the connection is the weak point.
Common uses and sizing notes
The 1.5 SG XLPE construction is the reason this single vertical tank spans bulk water, rainwater, and denser stored liquids. If you are sizing a rural or remote fire-water reserve, our fire-water reservoir design guide walks NFPA 22 sizing discipline and cold-climate freeze protection. For water-reuse trains blending grey water, rainwater, and HVAC condensate, see our industrial water-reuse tank topology guide, and for freeboard math on expanding contents, the ASTM D1998 freeboard sizing walkthrough.
This Snyder 2500 gallon vertical storage tank ships empty and dry by LTL freight from the Chowchilla, California plant — the 20,850 and 31,275 lb figures above are in-service contents weights, not shipping weight, so they will not appear on your freight quote. Get an exact freight number in seconds with our Freight Cost Estimator, or call 866-418-1777 and we will quote it to your ZIP. Because it ships from California, buyers in the West see the shortest lanes on this tank.
