The Snyder Industries 6900 Gallon Heavy Duty Vertical Liquid Storage Tank is a full-size, white vertical storage tank molded from High Density Linear Polyethylene with a 1.9 specific gravity rating. At 153 inches tall on a 120-by-120-inch footprint, it holds 6,900 gallons in a single-wall white vertical tank built for bulk water and high-density liquid service.
Will this tank work for your site?
Run the numbers before you pour a pad. Filled with plain water, this vertical storage tank carries 57,546 pounds of contents; at its maximum rated load it is engineered to hold 109,337 pounds, which is what the 1.9 SG wall rating provides. That headroom matters because the higher the specific gravity of your liquid, the heavier each gallon weighs - and a tank rated to 1.9 lets you store denser liquids up to that specific gravity. The 120 x 120 inch footprint is your pad dimension; size the foundation for the loaded weight, not the empty shell. Run your volume and liquid through the Tank Sizing Calculator and the Tank Sizing Guide before you commit.
What to get right before you order
The single most common mistake on a tank this size is treating specific gravity as a formality. A 1.9 SG rating is a ceiling, not a target - it tells you the densest liquid the wall is built to handle, and staying under it is fine while exceeding it is not. If you are storing plain water, understand that 1.9 is the heavy-duty wall: you are buying real dense-liquid headroom, so this is the tank to choose when your service runs heavier than water and the wrong one to over-spec if it never will. This is a single-wall tank, so plan any secondary containment as a separate part of your install. Fittings also matter: no outlet, bulkhead, or gasket configuration ships on this listing, so confirm fitting size, location, and gasket material when you order - call 866-418-1777 to lock that down rather than assuming a configuration that isn't documented here.
Fire-water and bulk-storage sizing
A tank this large is a common choice for rural and remote fire-water reservoirs and high-volume bulk storage. If that is your application, the Fire-Water Reservoir Tank Design guide walks through NFPA 22 reservoir sizing and cold-climate freeze protection. For staging or smaller secondary volumes at the same site, our buyer's guides for the 2000 gallon vertical tank, 500 gallon vertical tank, and 300 gallon vertical tank cover the step-down sizes - not comparable alternatives at this volume, but useful if you are spec'ing a smaller companion storage tank.
This tank ships LTL freight from the nearest Snyder Industries plant - Lincoln, NE or Philippi, WV - with freight quoted live to your ZIP. Because there are two origins, the closer plant sets your cost: Eastern sites generally ship from Philippi, WV and Central or Western sites from Lincoln, NE, so your location is a real freight lever.
