The Snyder Industries 730 Gallon Horizontal Leg Tank stores 730 gallons of liquid on a stable, self-supporting frame built for haul-and-transfer work. It measures 80" long by 54" wide and stands 57.5" tall, with integral molded legs and a securing hoop that lets you strap the tank down on a skid or trailer bed. The tank is molded from white polyethylene, carries a 2" outlet and a 10" lid, and is rated to a service temperature of 120°F (48°C). It ships empty at 240 lb, so a single tank is manageable to place before filling. Snyder references specification numbers 2282 and 2285 for this tank; we can confirm those against the current OEM sheet by phone before you order.
Will it work for your job
This is a 1.9 specific-gravity tank, which is what makes it a true haul tank rather than a water-only vessel — the wall is built to carry dense liquids, not just the 6,088 lb of a full water load. At its 1.9 SG rating the tank is engineered to hold up to roughly 11,568 lb of rated contents, and 1.9 is the heaviest-duty SG rating offered in this tank — there is nothing above it to step up to. Confirm your filled weight against your trailer or skid rating before you load: the 54" x 80" footprint spreads that weight, but the axle and deck under it still have to carry it. The securing hoop is for strap-down and tie-off; whether a loaded leg tank is road-legal is a DOT question about your trailer and load, not a tank specification. Use the Tank Sizing Calculator and the Tank Sizing Guide to match this Snyder Industries 730 gallon horizontal leg tank to your volume and duty cycle. For general background on where leg and utility tanks fall for road use, our guides on DOT non-roadable trailer scope and the 49 CFR 173.5 agricultural exemption walk through the regulatory framework, though they cover Norwesco applicator tanks rather than this specific SKU.
Chemical compatibility
The tank resin is high-density polyethylene at a 1.9 SG rating, but the resin grade is marked with a "?" in our data — confirm HDLPE versus XLPE (cross-link) with us at 866-418-1777 before you commit it to chemical service, because the two resins behave very differently against oxidizers and acids. Per the Snyder Industries OEM chemical-resistance chart — which is concentration- and temperature-specific — this 1.9 SG tank can carry oxidizers and strong acids that lighter tanks cannot: sulfuric acid (98%, CPVC fittings, Viton gaskets), hydrochloric acid (37%, PVC/Viton), phosphoric acid (85%, PVC/Viton), ferric chloride (50%, PVC/EPDM), hydrogen peroxide (50%, PVC/Viton), sodium hypochlorite (<16.5%, PVC/Viton), and ethylene glycol (100%, PVC/EPDM), among others. Every one of those ratings assumes you stay at or below the tank's 120°F ceiling — an exothermic acid, a heat-of-dilution spike, or a hot fill can push past rated temperature, and above 120°F the chart no longer applies. Lighter loads such as DEF (32.5%) and urea solution (50%) are compatible at 1.35 SG and sit comfortably within this tank's rating. The single biggest mistake to avoid: matching the tank but mismatching the fitting and gasket — note the fitting material (PVC, CPVC, PP, 316SS) and gasket (EPDM, Viton, Aflas) called out per chemical, since the wrong elastomer fails long before the tank does. Verify your exact chemical, concentration, and temperature against the chart and our chemical compatibility reference before ordering.
Freight
This tank ships LTL freight, quoted live to your ZIP, from the nearest Snyder Industries plant — production runs from Chowchilla, CA; Lincoln, NE; Philippi, WV; and an Arkansas plant, so most destinations pull from a ship point within reasonable haul distance. See the technical drawing on this page for the leg and hoop layout. Get a rate with the Freight Cost Estimator or call 866-418-1777, and we will pull the closest ship point and confirm resin grade and fitting spec for your service before the order goes on a truck.
