The Snyder Industries 2650 Gallon HDPE Vertical Liquid Storage Tank is a 1.9-specific-gravity vertical storage tank built for heavy-density water and liquid service where a standard 1.0 or 1.5 SG tank would be under-rated. Molded in white high-density linear polyethylene and carrying ASTM certification, it measures 102" in diameter by 97" overall height on a 102" x 102" footprint, a squat vertical profile that is wider than it is tall, so confirm pad and clearance dimensions against the technical drawing on this page before delivery. With a full-water weight of roughly 22,101 lb and a maximum rated contents weight of 41,992 lb, this is a fixed-site vertical tank, not something you reposition once it is filled.
Will it work for your application?
The 1.9 specific gravity rating is the headline reason to choose this SKU. SG tells you the heaviest liquid the wall is engineered to hold, and at 1.9 this tank carries denser liquids that would push a typical 1.0 to 1.5 SG vertical tank out of spec, so for heavier water-service liquids you get the higher-SG vessel without stepping up to a more expensive specialty tank. That margin is why the maximum rated contents weight (41,992 lb) sits far above the full-water weight (22,101 lb): store plain water and you have substantial headroom; store a heavier liquid and you use the 1.9 figure plus the contents-weight number to confirm you are inside the rating. The technical drawing on this page shows the fitting layout, which includes a flange, an 18" PE threaded-vented fitting, a manway with 15" access, and a 12" x 13.5" fitting alongside additional S.U.M.O. ports. Treat the 18" PE threaded-vented fitting as the designated vented connection and do not cap it, and confirm the 15" access manway clears whatever pump, mixer, or probe hardware you plan to lower through it. Because the pack does not specify gasket or bolt-up hardware for the flange and manway, confirm those on the order. For volume planning, run your numbers through the Tank Sizing Calculator and the Tank Sizing Guide.
The mistake to avoid
The most common error on a tank this size is treating the gross capacity as usable volume without accounting for freeboard. ASTM D1998 sizing logic builds in freeboard for thermal expansion and contents density, and the higher your liquid's specific gravity, the more that matters here. Our guide on freeboard sizing per ASTM D1998 walks through the real volume you can actually use. The second mistake is underspecifying the foundation: plan your pad for up to roughly 42,000 lb of contents plus the tank's own weight, and review concrete pad sizing for above-ground polyethylene tanks before you pour. For long-term service, our guide on HDPE wall thickness at the vapor-saturated headspace covers where premature failures can originate and why liquid-side inspection can miss them.
Freight and ordering
This vertical storage tank ships LTL freight from the Snyder plant in Marked Tree, Arkansas, the nearest named origin for this SKU. Because LTL cost depends on your distance from Arkansas and your delivery conditions, freight is quoted live to your ZIP rather than rolled into the listed price, so size both the concrete slab and the freight budget before you order. Get an exact number with the Freight Cost Estimator, or call 866-418-1777 and we will confirm the quote, fitting layout, gasket and bolt-up hardware, and lead time before you order.
