The Snyder Industries 750 Gallon Plastic Horizontal Leg Tank is a polyethylene haul tank built for moving liquid down the trailer and across the yard. It carries 750 gallons in a white tank that measures 117 inches long, 46 inches wide, and 48 inches tall, riding on integral legs with securing hoops so the tank stays seated and cradled when full. Snyder rates this tank to a 1.9 specific gravity, which is what lets it haul dense agricultural and industrial liquids that a standard 1.5-rated horizontal could not safely carry. If you have been searching for a horizontal leg tank or a Snyder horizontal that can take a heavy load, this is the size where weight, footprint, and SG rating line up.
Will it handle your load
The 46 x 117 inch footprint is the number to plan around: that is the cradle or trailer-bed length and width you need, and it sets how the tank rides on a non-roadable trailer. Filled with water the tank weighs about 6,255 pounds, and at its full 1.9 SG rating the tank and contents reach roughly 11,884 pounds. Use those two figures when you spec the trailer, axle, and tie-downs. Run your liquid's specific gravity and volume through the Tank Sizing Calculator and the Tank Sizing Guide before you buy. Fitting size and placement are configured per order rather than fixed, so confirm your fitting and leg layout with us before you order and we will match it to the saddle and plumbing you are building.
Chemical compatibility
This tank is polyethylene with a 1.9 specific gravity rating. The compatibility below is drawn from the Snyder chemical-resistance chart, which is concentration- and temperature-specific, so always match your exact concentration and operating temperature to the chart before filling. Within that 1.9 SG envelope this tank is listed compatible with acetic acid (60%), aluminum sulfate (50%), calcium chloride (40%), DEF at 32.5% (the urea concentration used in diesel exhaust fluid), ethylene glycol (100%, PVC fittings and EPDM gaskets), propylene glycol (PP or 316 stainless fittings, EPDM gaskets), ferric chloride (50%), ferric sulfate (60%), ferrous sulfate (20%), hydrochloric acid (37%), hydrofluoric acid (48%), hydrofluosilicic acid (26%), hydrogen peroxide (50%), magnesium chloride (30%), peracetic acid (30%), phosphoric acid (85%), polyaluminum chloride, potassium carbonate (50%), potassium hydroxide (saturated), sodium bisulfate, sodium bisulfite, sodium carbonate (30%), sodium hypochlorite (below 16.5% as a hard ceiling), sodium thiosulfate (40%), sulfuric acid (98%), urea solution (50%), zinc orthophosphate, and ozonated water up to 10 PPM. See the full chemical compatibility resource for the per-chemical detail behind each link.
Fittings, gaskets, and the mistake to avoid
The fitting and gasket material has to match the chemical, not just the tank. Most of the salts, hydroxides, and glycols above run on PVC fittings with EPDM gaskets, but several chemicals break that pattern and are where the expensive mistakes happen. Hydrochloric acid (37%), hydrogen peroxide (50%), phosphoric acid (85%), and sodium hypochlorite (below 16.5%) need PVC fittings with Viton gaskets; hydrofluoric acid (48%) and hydrofluosilicic acid (26%) need PP or PVC fittings with Viton; sulfuric acid (98%) needs CPVC fittings with Viton. Two chemicals leave plastic entirely: peracetic acid (30%) needs 316 stainless fittings with Aflas gaskets, and DEF needs 316 stainless with EPDM. The other expensive mistake is treating SG as a formality. At 1.9 this tank is already at the dense-chemistry end of the polyethylene range, and there is no higher-rated poly step-up above it, so verify your liquid's specific gravity at operating temperature stays at or under 1.9 rather than planning to size up. Confirm fitting and gasket material on a per-chemical basis using the Snyder chart and the chemical compatibility pages above.
