The Snyder Industries 2650 Gallon ASTM XLPE Vertical Storage Tank is a crosslinked polyethylene vertical storage tank built for demanding bulk water and higher-density service. Molded in Natural White crosslinked linear polyethylene (XLPE), it carries a 1.5 specific gravity rating, so it is engineered to hold contents heavier than plain water without exceeding its design limits. The tank shell stands 97 inches tall on a 102 x 102 inch footprint, giving you a stable, wide base for above-ground installation.
Will it work for your site?
This is a full 2,650-gallon vertical tank. Filled with water, the contents weigh 22,101 lb, and that water-service figure is the number to design your pad and foundation around. At its maximum 1.5 SG rating, the tank is built to carry up to 33,152 lb of contents, which is the design ceiling that applies only if you store a liquid denser than water. Because it is a crosslinked (XLPE) tank rather than standard HDPE, it brings extra wall toughness for that denser storage right up to the 1.5 SG limit. If you are still confirming volume for your application, run the numbers on our Tank Sizing Calculator and review the Tank Sizing Guide before you commit.
Fittings and access
The tank is documented with a flange, an 18" PE threaded-vented fitting, a manway with 15" access, a 12" x 13.5" S.U.M.O. fitting, and an additional S.U.M.O. fitting provision. The 15" access manway gives you a working opening for inspection and cleanout, while the vented threaded fitting supports venting during fill and draw. For exact port locations, sizes, and elevations, see the technical drawing on this page and match it against your plumbing plan. Fitting hardware, gaskets, and bulkhead seals should be confirmed for your specific liquid at time of order, so call 866-418-1777 before you finalize the outlet package.
Getting it right the first time
The most common mistake on a tank this size is under-building the foundation. Loaded with water at 22,101 lb, the pad has to carry the load without settling or point-stressing the base, and denser service up to the 33,152 lb rating only raises that demand. Our guide on concrete pad sizing for above-ground polyethylene tanks walks through the ACI framework. Note also that 97" is the tank shell height; the 18" threaded-vented fitting and manway are top-mounted, so confirm your overhead clearance including the top fittings before you set it. If this tank is going into a rural fire-water or reservoir role, the fire-water reservoir design guide covers NFPA 22 sizing and freeze protection.
