A light 3000 gallon black water tank, 96 by 111 inches, rated to 1.35 specific gravity
Snyder part number 5130300N33 is a 3000 gallon black polyethylene vertical storage tank, 96 inches in diameter and 111 inches tall, weighing 480 lb empty. The wall is rated for liquids up to 1.35 specific gravity with a 120 F service limit, and an 18 inch threaded vented manway sits on top. 3000 gallons of water weighs 25,020 lb, comfortably inside a 1.35 rating. Snyder backs it with a 3 year warranty. The black wall keeps light out, so stored water does not grow algae. Snyder uses the same product name on another 3000 gallon shell, so order by part number.

For water, on a low, wide base
This is a water tank first. The 1.35 rating covers water with headroom and suits liquids up to 1.35 times water, but brines, salt solutions and heavy fertilizer blends can go past that, and they belong in a heavier rated version of this shell, which we also list. If you are not sure how heavy your liquid is, give us the product name and we will look it up; check anything other than water in the chemical compatibility guide before you order.
At 480 lb empty it is a tank a small crew can walk off a trailer and onto a pad with straps and a lift, and the 111 inch height keeps the manway in easy ladder reach. Good fits are a cabin or home on hauled water, a stock water reserve, a garden or orchard supply, rainwater off a shop roof, and a standby supply for fire protection, where the fire water reservoir design guide covers how much to keep and how to protect it from freezing. For reclaimed water at a facility, the industrial water reuse storage guide explains staging. Full, the tank still puts 25,020 lb on its floor, so it needs a level, continuous base; the concrete pad sizing guide covers the slab. Check the volume with the tank sizing calculator and the tank sizing guide.
What to confirm before you buy
- Manway. One 18 inch threaded vented manway on top for filling, cleaning and venting. Keep the vent free.
- Outlet. No outlet or fitting is listed with this part number. Tell us your line size and whether gravity or a pump draws from the tank, and we will confirm with Snyder what it comes with.
- Anchoring. A light tank is easy to place and easy for the wind to move when empty. Strap or anchor it to the slab before you leave it.
- Drawing. Snyder's drawing for 5130300N33 is linked under Technical Drawing on this page.

Shipping and receiving
The tank ships LTL at freight class 400 from Snyder's Chowchilla, California plant, listed at 96 by 96 by 111 inches and 480 lb. Lift from the base with straps, never by the manway. Set it on the finished pad, fill it with water and check the base and manway over a day before you depend on it. At the tailgate, check the bill of lading against 5130300N33 and look over the whole shell for transit marks.
