Snyder part number 6190000N51 is a 500 gallon heavy duty cone bottom tank in black high density linear polyethylene, 64 inches in diameter and 63 inches tall, weighing 120 lb empty. The heavy duty wall is rated for liquids up to 1.9 specific gravity, with a service limit of 100 F (37 C). The top is an 18 inch threaded vented manway. 500 gallons of water weighs 4,170 lb (500 x 8.34); at the full 1.9 rating, 7,923 lb. The black wall keeps light off the liquid.

A compact tank for heavy liquids
At 500 gallons and 63 inches tall, this is the size people use as a day tank beside a dosing pump, a brine tank for a softener or a deicing rig, a make-down tank for coagulant, or a fertilizer nurse tank in a shed. It is short enough that on a stand the manway is still within reach from a step, and at 120 lb empty two people can move it into place before it is filled.
The cone sends every drop to one outlet, so a feed tank runs dry cleanly and a batch tank rinses out between products. The 1.9 heavy duty rating covers liquids nearly twice the weight of water, which is the range most treatment chemicals and brines fall in. Check yours in our chemical compatibility guide; buyers of this tank often look up sodium hypochlorite, calcium chloride, aluminum sulfate, sodium bisulfite and urea solution. Keep anything that warms as it mixes under 100 F.
Black blocks light, which is the right call for hypochlorite and for water held a long time. If you would rather watch the level through the wall, Snyder makes a white version at this size, the 500 gallon 45 degree HDPE cone bottom tank in white 6190000N45; check its rating on its own page.
What to check before you buy
- Stand. No stand is named with this part number, and a cone bottom tank cannot sit on the floor. Use one rated for 1.9 contents; our cone bottom tank stand compatibility matrix shows the options and we will confirm one for 6190000N51.
- Outlet. No outlet fitting is listed with this part number. Tell us the valve size and the chemical and we will confirm the fitting and gasket at the cone tip with Snyder.
- Vent. The manway is vented. A metering pump drawing from a sealed tank will pull a vacuum, so keep the vent clear.
- Containment. Chemical feed tanks often need a containment basin. Our Snyder Captor containment comparison explains the options.
- Drawing. Snyder's drawing for 6190000N51 is linked under Technical Drawing on this page.
