525-gallon white horizontal leg tank built for heavy-duty industrial chemical containment. Manufactured by Snyder Industries from virgin linear polyethylene (HDPE) rated to handle liquids up to 15.8 pounds per gallon. The 1.9 specific gravity rating handles the heaviest industrial chemicals — built with extra wall thickness where it counts.
The 525 Gallon Plastic Horizontal Leg Tank is designed for farms, ranches, small businesses, and residential properties needing reliable mid-range liquid storage. This 525-gallon horizontal configuration keeps the center of gravity low, making it ideal for transport applications or stationary installations where height clearance is limited. The horizontal profile also works well for gravity-feed systems and low-profile installations.
Constructed from virgin linear polyethylene (HDPE) using a single-piece rotational molding process that eliminates seams, weld lines, and potential leak points. The 1.9 specific gravity rating means this tank is built with significantly heavier wall sections than a standard water tank — necessary to safely contain liquids weighing up to 15.8 pounds per gallon. That extra wall thickness is not optional when you are storing aggressive industrial chemicals. Translucent white walls allow visual level monitoring without opening the tank and reflect sunlight to keep contents cooler. Maximum operating temperature is 120 F/ 48 C, with UV stabilizers compounded directly into the resin for outdoor service life.
This tank measures 75 inches long by 48 inches wide and 53 inches tall, requiring 25.0 square feet of level ground. Empty weight is 124 pounds. At full capacity with a 1.9 SG liquid, expect approximately 8,443 pounds on the foundation. Requires a reinforced concrete pad designed for the full loaded weight, with at least 6 inches of compacted gravel sub-base. Horizontal tanks must be supported by saddles or cradles rated for the full loaded weight. Never use narrow supports that create point loads on the tank wall.
Comes equipped with a 2" NPT outlet fitting installed at the factory. No inlet fitting is included — drill and install a bulkhead fitting at your preferred height for your specific plumbing layout. The 10" lid accommodates fill lines, vent connections, and basic interior access for inspection. Use schedule 80 PVC or stainless steel bulkhead fittings on the 2" NPT connections. Install a full-port ball valve and consider a Y-strainer to protect downstream equipment.
Snyder Industries has been a leader in polyethylene tank manufacturing for over 60 years. Their Lincoln, Nebraska facility produces tanks using advanced rotational molding processes with rigorous quality control at every step.
