3,000 gallons rated to 1.5 specific gravity
The Snyder 5130000N43 is a white polyethylene vertical tank that holds 3,000 gallons in a 90 inch diameter, 127 inch tall shell weighing 575 pounds. Its wall is rated for a specific gravity of 1.5, so 37,530 pounds of contents at full against 25,020 for water: the middle rating, for liquids heavier than water but short of the concentrated chemicals that need a 1.9 wall. A 3 inch outlet at the base and an 18 inch manway on top make it a working bulk tank rather than a reservoir.
Two ways to buy. Add it to your cart above with freight quoted to your ZIP, or request a written quote for a job that needs paperwork.
Where 1.5 is the right wall
Brine, liquid fertilizer, dilute acids and caustics, most coagulants at delivered strength: these sit between 1.0 and 1.5 and do not need the cost of a 1.9 tank. Check the density of what you buy against the rating, and check the resin against the chemical in the chemical compatibility database; the list below is what the resin is rated for. The two 3,000 gallon vertical tank buyers guides (second guide) compare this tall shape against the low profile tanks in the same class. The tank sizing calculator and the tank sizing guide settle the volume.
The 90 x 127 inch mold and its neighbors
| Part | Gallons | Diameter x height | Empty weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5130000N43 (this tank, 1.5 SG) | 3,000 | 90 x 127 in | 575 lb |
| 5130000C34 | 3,000 | 90 x 127 in | 575 lb |
| 5130000N33 | 3,000 | 90 x 127 in | 510 lb |
| 8390000C26 | 2,650 | 102 x 97 in | 510 lb |
| 32288 | 3,500 | 96 x 125 in | 550 lb |
Three of the rows are one mold at two wall thicknesses: the N33 is the lighter wall at 510 pounds for liquids near the density of water, and the N43 and C34 carry 65 more pounds of resin for the 1.5 rating. The 8390000C26 is the low room alternative, 30 inches shorter on a 102 inch base for 350 fewer gallons. The 32288 is a water tank: 3,500 gallons at 550 pounds on a 96 inch base, a lighter wall spread over more volume.

What is fitted
- Outlet: 3 inch, at the bottom of the sidewall; a flanged transition, an expansion joint and a supported valve.
- Access: 18 inch threaded, vented manway.
- Service limit: 120 F / 48 C.
A 3 inch outlet fills a tanker or feeds a transfer pump quickly, which is why this tank is specified where liquid moves in bulk rather than by dosing pump. The level gauge selection guide matches a sender to the liquid; at 127 inches, a hydrostatic unit at the outlet is the practical choice. For regulated liquids, the Snyder Captor 110 percent containment comparison covers double wall against a berm.
Freight for a 3,000 gallon tank
At 90 inches across and 127 inches long on the deck the 5130000N43 is oversize freight (NMFC 156600) at a lane rate; the freight cost estimator prices it for your ZIP, and the listed price is before freight. A forklift with long forks sets 575 pounds on the pad. Strap it against wind while empty, water-test in stages, and re-check the 3 inch outlet after the hold.
Compatibility list
Liquids the maker rates this resin for, with concentration limits and the wetted fitting and gasket to specify. Confirm your own concentration and temperature on the chemical page or in the chemical compatibility database before ordering.
- Acetic Acid at 60% (PP/PVC fittings, EPDM gaskets)
- Aluminum Sulfate at 50% (PVC/EPDM)
- Calcium Chloride at 40% (PVC/EPDM)
- DEF at 32.5% (316SS/EPDM)
