3,000 gallons in green with a bolted outlet
The Snyder WG72 holds 3,000 gallons of water in a green high density linear polyethylene shell 96 inches across and 112 inches tall, weighing 360 pounds. It is the green 3,000 gallon tank with the stainless steel bolted outlet and a 24 inch manway, built for the installation that plumbs a pump suction or a fire draft connection straight into the tank. Rated for a specific gravity of 1.0, water and liquids no heavier than water, with a 3 year warranty.

Pad, straps and reach
Full, the WG72 loads a 96 inch circle to 25,020 pounds: a slab or a compacted pad in full contact with the whole floor, sized by the ACI 360R-10 method in the concrete pad sizing guide. At 112 inches it is a sail when empty, so strap it, and the 24 inch manway is a step-ladder reach. The 3,000 gallon green water tank buyers guide compares this tall shape against the low 102 inch tanks; the tank sizing calculator confirms the gallons.
Snyder's 3,000 gallon water tanks
| Part | Gallons | Diameter x height | Empty weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| WG72 (this tank, green, bolted outlet) | 3,000 | 96 x 112 in | 360 lb |
| 32567 | 3,000 | 96 x 109 in | 382 lb |
| 32569 | 3,000 | 96 x 109 in | 427 lb |
| 32781, low profile | 3,000 | 102 x 97 in | 350 lb |
| 32294 | 3,500 | 96 x 125 in | 535 lb |
The 32567 and 32569 are the threaded-fitting 3,000 gallon tanks on the same base, 3 inches shorter with heavier walls at 382 and 427 pounds. The 32781 is the low profile answer, 15 inches shorter on a 102 inch base. The 32294 steps to 3,500 gallons at 125 inches. The WG72 is the one to buy for the bolted outlet.

Where the pipe goes
- Inlet: 1-1/2 inch polypropylene female NPT bulkhead fitting.
- Outlet: 2 inch polypropylene fitting with a stainless steel bolted flange, at the base; re-torque after the first full fill.
- Access: 24 inch threaded, vented manway.
- Service limit: 120 F / 48 C.
A bolted flange holds a rigid suction line, a heavy valve or a fire department connection without working the tank wall; put a flexible transition in the line anyway, because a 112 inch polyethylene wall grows and shrinks with the day. Level through the green wall is a sight tube off the outlet or a float gauge through the manway. Where the tank is a fire reserve, the bolted outlet is where the draft connection goes: rigid pipe to a threaded fire department connection at the property line, supported on its own stands, with a strainer inside the tank and a check valve so the tank cannot be back-fed, and a marked, clear approach for an engine.
The work it does
A fire reserve with a bolted draft connection, sized under NFPA 22 per the fire-water reservoir design guide; a ranch water bank feeding a pressure pump; and the storage stage of a commercial reuse train that pools roof water, grey water and condensate, per the industrial water reuse tank topology article. The tank sizing guide covers days of supply.
Freight for a 96 inch tank
At 96 inches across and 112 inches long on the deck the WG72 is oversize freight (NMFC 156600) on a flatbed 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 360 pounds on the pad. Strap it while empty, fill in stages with the pad and the flange under watch, and torque the bolts once more after the hold. Save the pallet; a tank that ever has to move again is easier to move on it.
