The Snyder Industries 4500-gallon vertical liquid storage tank stores up to 4,500 gallons of water and heavier liquids in a 142-inch-tall white polyethylene body that stands 102 inches in diameter on a 102 x 102-inch square footprint. It runs a 1.9 specific-gravity rating, so the wall and floor are built to carry contents denser than water all the way up to the tank's full volume. The white body lets you read your liquid level from outside, and the vertical profile keeps the footprint compact for the volume it holds. Check those numbers against your gate width, ceiling height, and transport clearance before you size the pad.
Will this vertical storage tank work for your site?
Plan the pad and the math before you order. Filled with water at 8.34 lb/gallon, this tank carries roughly 37,530 lb of contents. Because it is rated to 1.9 SG, the maximum rated contents weight is 71,307 lb when it is full of liquid at the top of that density range. Size your concrete pad and ring wall for the heaviest liquid you intend to store, not for water alone. Run the numbers with the Tank Sizing Calculator and the Tank Sizing Guide, then set the pad using the framework in our concrete pad sizing guide. This is one of the larger white vertical storage tanks in the line, built for bulk water storage.
The 1.9 SG rating is the detail buyers miss
The mistake to avoid on a tank this size is treating the specific-gravity rating as a formality. At 1.9 SG you are buying capability you can grow into: the same body that holds about 37,530 lb of water is engineered to carry a full liquid load up to 71,307 lb at the top of that density range, which is the headroom you want for denser process water and similar heavier liquids. But that rating does not change the physics — anchoring, fittings, and the pad all have to be specified for that real 71,307-lb load, not for water. For long-service installs, also understand where polyethylene tanks fail first: read our note on wall thickness at the vapor-saturated headspace, where premature failures originate above the liquid line.
Built-to-order fittings and common uses
Fitting configuration on this tank — outlet size and placement, lid, and vent — is confirmed at order, so you get a layout matched to your install rather than a fixed default. At the full 1.9-SG load, the outlet bulkhead fittings and gaskets have to be rated for that head pressure, which we confirm with you before you build the pad. A 4,500-gallon white vertical tank suits rural and remote water reservoir duty, including private fire-protection storage; see our walkthrough on fire-water reservoir design for rural sites. It also works for industrial water-reuse trains that aggregate grey water, rainwater, and HVAC condensate into quality-banded storage, covered in our industrial water-reuse topology guide. See the technical drawing on this page for the full dimensional layout.
This tank ships LTL freight from the nearest Snyder Industries plant — Chowchilla, CA or Lincoln, NE — and we quote from whichever is closer to you, so a West-Coast or Midwest buyer will see a different number on the same tank.
