A 2,600 gallon black cone bottom tank that keeps light out
Snyder Industries part number 5100000N46 is a 2,600 gallon cone bottom tank in black crosslinked linear polyethylene (XLPE). The shell is 90 inches in diameter and 139 inches tall, it weighs 500 lb empty, and it 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). 2,600 gallons of water weighs 21,684 lb (2,600 x 8.34). Black blocks daylight, which slows algae in stored water and protects products that break down in light, and the cone drains the whole volume to one point at the bottom.

Where it earns its place
A cone bottom tank is the right buy when the tank has to empty completely: batch mixing, settling, rinse water that has to be dumped between runs, or any product that leaves a layer on a flat floor. Draining to a single point means less product left behind and less time spent cleaning. Choose black over white when the tank stands outdoors or under skylights, or when the liquid is light sensitive. The cost is that you cannot see the level through the wall, so budget for a gauge; our level gauge selection guide compares the options.
At 90 inches across and 139 inches tall, plan for height: the stand, plus 139 inches of tank, plus clearance over the manway, plus room under the cone for the valve and the receiving vessel.
What to check before you buy
- Outlet. No outlet size is listed for this part. Tell us the line size and the valve and we will confirm the fitting before you order.
- Manway. 18 inch threaded vented manway. Keep the vent clear; the tank has to breathe while it drains.
- Stand. Bought separately. The cone bottom tank stand compatibility matrix matches stands to tanks, and the drawing linked under Technical Drawing on this page shows the cone.
- Liquid. Up to 1.5 specific gravity. Look up your product in the chemical compatibility guide; for this tank buyers most often check urea solution, DEF, ethylene glycol, magnesium chloride and calcium chloride.
- Labels and containment. See our guide to tank labels and signage and the Captor containment comparison.
The same shell, and the sizes either side
Want to see the level? The natural white 5100000N40 is the same tank in white. For liquids heavier than 1.5, step to the black heavy duty 5100000N48 or the heavy duty 5100000N42. One size down is the 2,500 gallon cone, one size up the 3,000 gallon cone. Size it with the tank sizing calculator.
