The Snyder Industries 2650 Gallon Heavy Duty Vertical Storage Tank is a polyethylene vertical storage tank built for bulk water and high-density liquid duty, listed here for vertical water storage, fire-water reservoir, and industrial reuse service. It holds 2,650 gallons in a 102-inch diameter by 97-inch tall body and carries a 1.9 specific gravity rating, which is the spec that separates this Heavy Duty model from a standard 1.5 SG vertical tank of the same gallon size.
Will it work for your site
The base footprint is 102.0 x 102.0 inches, with an overall height of 97 inches, so plan a pad at least that wide plus working clearance. Full of plain water this tank weighs about 22,101 pounds; the wall is rated to carry up to 41,992 pounds of contents at its 1.9 specific gravity ceiling. That ceiling works out to roughly 15.8 pounds per gallon, so you can check your liquid's density directly against that number rather than guessing. The tank is molded in Natural White polyethylene. To dial in the right gallon size for your draw-down and refill cycle, run the numbers through our Tank Sizing Calculator and check the Tank Sizing Guide before you commit. For the diameter, height, and fitting layout as molded, see the technical drawing on this page; the pack carries no published fitting or gasket spec, so call us at 866-418-1777 to confirm available outlet, bulkhead, and gasket options before you order.
Pad and structural planning
Design your foundation to the right load: a water buyer pours to about 22,101 pounds full, while a dense-liquid buyer must design to the full 41,992-pound maximum rated contents. Our guide to concrete pad sizing for above-ground polyethylene tanks walks through the ACI 360R-10 framework and where the ACI 318 boundary applies, so the slab carries that load without cracking or differential settlement. If this tank is going into a fire-protection role, the fire-water reservoir design guide covers NFPA 22 sizing discipline and cold-climate freeze protection. For grey-water, rainwater, or HVAC condensate aggregation, the industrial water reuse topology guide covers quality-banded storage trains.
The mistake to avoid
Do not treat this as a base 1.5 SG vertical that happens to hold 2,650 gallons. The heavier wall and 1.9 specific gravity rating are exactly what let it carry up to 41,992 pounds of contents safely, which is why buyers storing brine, fertilizer, or other denser-than-water liquids should choose this Heavy Duty model over a 1.5 SG tank rather than the other way around. If you are storing plain water you have plenty of headroom; if you are storing a denser liquid, that roughly 15.8 pounds-per-gallon ceiling is your hard limit, so confirm your liquid stays under it. And do not pour an undersized pad sized only to water weight when your service loads the tank far above that.
