A 300 gallon black heavy duty tank shipped from California
Snyder Industries part number 1630100N51 is the 300 gallon ASTM black heavy duty vertical storage tank made at Chowchilla, California: black polyethylene, 36 inches in diameter, 82 inches tall and 100 lb empty. The heavy duty wall is rated for liquids up to 1.9 specific gravity, and the service limit is 120 F. Snyder backs it with a 3 year warranty. Full of water it holds 2,502 lb (300 gallons x 8.34). The black wall keeps sunlight out, which matters for a tank that stands outdoors in a western summer.

Outdoor storage for water, nutrients and dense liquids
Ranches, vineyards, nurseries and small water systems in the West use a tank this size for a water reserve, a nutrient or fertilizer stock, or a treatment chemical by a well. Black is the right colour for any of those outdoors: algae needs light, and many fertilizers and chemicals degrade in it. The 1.9 rating covers dense liquids such as brines and concentrated fertilizers; the 120 F limit says to keep it to ordinary storage temperatures and to shade it if the liquid is heat sensitive, because a black tank in full sun warms up. Check the liquid in the chemical compatibility guide, and if it arrives warm, call us first. At 36 inches across and 82 inches tall, a little under seven feet, it fits a small pad beside a building or a pump. The pad must be flat, level and continuous under the whole circle; see the concrete pad sizing guide. Plan headspace for expansion with the freeboard sizing guide. For a fire or emergency water reserve on a rural site, the fire water reservoir design guide covers sizing and freeze protection.
