Chemical Compatibility & Specific Gravity
Polyethylene tanks have specific gravity ratings. SG 1.0 = water-rated. Higher SG = denser fluid handling. Always match the stored liquid's density to the tank's rating.
| Fluid | SG | Rating |
|---|---|---|
| Water, potable | 1.00 | Fully rated |
| Ag liquid fertilizer (10-34-0) | 1.40 | Within rating for SG ≥ 1.5 tanks |
| Saturated brine | 1.20 | Within rating |
| 12.5% sodium hypochlorite (bleach) | 1.20 | Within rating; UV exposure reduces bleach shelf life |
| Sulfuric acid, <30% | 1.25 | Within rating for XLPE tanks only; confirm with our team |
| Diesel fuel, motor oil | 0.85–0.90 | NOT rated — permeation concern |
| Concentrated acids (>30%) or strong solvents | varies | NOT rated — material attack |
For fluids not listed, call 866-418-1777 — we maintain a chemical compatibility chart that cross-references manufacturer material science with real field performance.
Typical Applications
- Low-profile bulk liquid storage where height clearance is limited
- Pickup-bed or trailer-mount transport
- Chemical mixing / reservoir for 12-volt spray pumps
Installation Checklist
- Install on a flat, level surface that extends 4 inches beyond the tank footprint
- Use Teflon tape on threaded outlets; do not over-torque (max 15 lb-ft)
- Fit a vented lid when drawing fluid above 5 GPM to prevent vacuum collapse
- Budget for crane or forklift offload — manual handling above 1,000-gal capacity is not feasible
Shipping & Freight
Oversized-freight SKU. Requires crane or forklift at delivery. We coordinate delivery appointments with a 2-hour window.
Warranty & Certifications
3-year limited replacement on rotomolded tanks. Keep your One Source Plastics order confirmation — it's the warranty-claim trigger.
When This Product Is the Wrong Choice
