A 9,500 gallon black polyethylene vertical tank, 120 inches across and 215 inches tall
The Snyder Industries 9500 Gallon ASTM Black Vertical Storage Tank, part number 7450000N49, is a flat bottom polyethylene tank 120 inches in diameter and 215 inches tall, weighing 2,800 lb empty, with an 18 inch threaded vented manway on top. The wall is rated for liquids up to 1.5 specific gravity: 9,500 gallons of water weighs 79,230 lb (9,500 x 8.34), and at 1.5 the tank is built for contents up to 118,845 lb. The service limit is 120 F (48 C). Snyder backs it with a 3 year warranty. A black wall blocks light, which slows algae in stored water. It ships from Snyder's Lincoln, Nebraska plant.

Where a tall 9,500 gallon tank fits
At 120 inches across, this tank fits where a wider tank of the same volume will not: a narrow strip beside a building, an existing containment area, a pad shared with other tanks. It suits bulk water for a farm, ranch or rural home, rinse or process water at a plant, and liquids up to 1.5 times the weight of water. Before you order, measure up as well as across: 215 inches plus whatever sits above the manway. Full, up to 118,845 lb rests on a 120 inch circle, so the slab is engineered, level and in full contact; our concrete pad sizing guide walks through it. A tall empty tank catches wind, so anchor it before the first fill and check the tie-downs after the first summer. If it is going into a fire reserve, read the fire water reservoir design guide first. Check the volume against your use with the tank sizing calculator and the tank sizing guide.
What to check before you buy
- The liquid. Water sits well inside this rating. For a liquid heavier than 1.5 times water, or one that runs warmer than 120 F, ask us about a heavier wall.
- The outlet. This page lists the manway, not a bottom fitting. Tell us the line you are connecting to, and we will confirm the fitting, its size and material before you buy valves or pipe.
- The manway. 18 inch threaded and vented, 215 inches up. Plan permanent access to the top; a step ladder will not reach.
- The level. A black wall hides the level. Fit a gauge you can read from the ground.
- The drawing. Snyder's drawing for this tank is linked under Technical Drawing on this page and shows the manway position and the base.
Other resins in this size, and the tanks either side
If your liquid calls for cross-linked polyethylene, the same size comes as the 9500 gallon XLPE vertical tank 7450000N40, the 9500 gallon XLPE black vertical tank 7450000N46 and the 9500 gallon XLPE heavy duty vertical tank 7450000N42. A little smaller: the 8900 gallon heavy duty vertical tank 7400000C26. A little larger: the 9800 gallon heavy duty vertical tank 7450000C26. Compare each tank's own diameter and height before you switch. Where a second wall is required, the Captor double wall freeboard guide shows how much volume you give up.
Shipping and receiving
The tank ships at freight class 300, 120 by 120 by 215 inches, 2,800 lb, from Lincoln, Nebraska. At 120 inches across it moves as a permitted oversize load, so check the gate, the overhead lines and the approach to the pad before delivery day. The listed price is before freight; the freight cost estimator gives the lane cost to your ZIP. Lift with straps around the body, never by the manway, and set it on a clean, level pad. At the tailgate, check the part number against 7450000N49 on the bill of lading and walk round the tank for transit damage. Fill it with water first and look at the base and the pad edge before it goes into service.
