The Snyder Industries 330 Gallon HDPE IBC Tote (SKU SII-6610056B97205) is a non-caged bulk tote built by Snyder Industries from high density polyethylene with a 1.9 specific gravity rating, the high-SG construction that separates a real chemical tote from a water-only container. It stands 64 inches tall on a 45 x 45 inch footprint, so it drops into a single standard pallet position for forklift or pallet-jack handling, racking, and over-the-road shipping. If you have been searching for an HDPE IBC tote tank that handles aggressive contents and stacks for storage, this is the unit.
Will it work for your application?
Capacity is 330 gallons. Filled with water (SG 1.0) the contents weigh 2,752 lb; the 1.9 SG rating means the tank is engineered to carry up to 5,229 lb of denser product, which is the number that matters when you are storing acids, brines, or concentrated solutions heavier than water. That 1.9 rating is the heaviest-product rating in this tote class, so the question is rarely whether the tank can hold your fluid by weight - it is whether your chemical's specific gravity stays under that 5,229 lb ceiling. Confirm that before you fill. Because this is a stackable, non-caged design, plan your storage layout around the 45 x 45 inch footprint and the 64 inch height. Use the Tank Sizing Calculator and Tank Sizing Guide to match the 330 gallon volume to your turnover, and if you are still deciding between packaging tiers, the Container vs Tank and Drum vs Tote vs Bulk Tank break-even analysis walk through the math.
Chemical compatibility
This tote is HDLPE rated to 1.9 specific gravity. Before committing it to chemical service, confirm whether your application needs HDLPE versus a cross-linked (XLPE) tank, and always size your stored product's SG against the 1.9 rating. Compatibility is concentration- and temperature-specific, so verify your exact conditions against the OEM chemical-resistance chart and our Chemical Compatibility Database. The following are referenced for this resin and SG class, each with the fitting and gasket materials that pair with them:
- Acetic Acid (60%) - PP/PVC fittings, EPDM gaskets
- Aluminum Sulfate (50%) - PVC fittings, EPDM gaskets
- Calcium Chloride (40%) - PVC fittings, EPDM gaskets
- DEF (32.5%) - 316SS fittings, EPDM gaskets
- Ethylene Glycol (100%) - PVC fittings, EPDM gaskets
- Ferric Chloride (50%) - PVC fittings, EPDM gaskets
- Ferric Sulfate (60%) - PVC fittings, EPDM gaskets
- Ferrous Sulfate (20%) - PVC fittings, EPDM gaskets
- Hydrochloric Acid (37%) - PVC fittings, Viton gaskets
- Hydrofluoric Acid (48%) - PP/PVC fittings, Viton gaskets
- Hydrofluosilicic Acid (26%) - PP/PVC fittings, Viton gaskets
- Hydrogen Peroxide (50%) - PVC fittings, Viton gaskets
- Magnesium Chloride (30%) - PVC fittings, EPDM gaskets
- Peracetic Acid (30%) - 316SS fittings, Aflas gaskets
- Phosphoric Acid (85%) - PVC fittings, Viton gaskets
- Polyaluminum Chloride - PVC fittings, EPDM gaskets
- Potassium Carbonate (50%) - PVC fittings, EPDM gaskets
- Potassium Hydroxide (saturated) - PVC fittings, EPDM gaskets
- Propylene Glycol - PP/316SS fittings, EPDM gaskets
- Sodium Bisulfate - PVC/PP fittings, EPDM gaskets
- Sodium Bisulfite - PVC/PP fittings, EPDM gaskets
- Sodium Carbonate (30%) - PVC fittings, EPDM gaskets
- Sodium Hypochlorite (<16.5%) - PVC fittings, Viton gaskets
- Sodium Thiosulfate (40%) - PVC fittings, EPDM gaskets
- Sulfuric Acid (98%) - CPVC fittings, Viton gaskets
- Urea Solution (50%) - PP/PVC fittings, EPDM gaskets
- Zinc Orthophosphate - PP/316SS fittings, EPDM gaskets
- Ozonated Water (up to 10 PPM) - PVC fittings, EPDM gaskets
The mistake to avoid
The single most common error on a chemical tote is matching the fitting and gasket to the tank instead of to the chemical. The HDPE wall handles a wide range, but the gasket does not - note that sodium hypochlorite, hydrogen peroxide, hydrofluoric acid, phosphoric acid, and sulfuric acid here call for Viton rather than EPDM, and peracetic acid needs Aflas. Order the wrong elastomer and you get a weeping outlet within weeks. DEF at 32.5% (standard concentration) and peracetic acid both move the spec to stainless - 316 stainless fittings, not brass or carbon steel. Always confirm your exact concentration and temperature against the OEM chemical-resistance chart. For secondary containment planning around hazardous service, the Snyder Captor 110% containment comparison and the RCRA 40 CFR 264.193 secondary containment guide cover the regulatory side.
