Buyers Products Company 550 Gallon Vertical Storage Tank – 67 Inch x 49 Inch

Description

Store bulk agricultural chemicals without tank degradation using the heavy-duty Buyers Products 550 Gallon Storage Tank on equipment yards. The free-standing cylindrical body provides massive liquid fertilizer or water storage in a compact footprint. Molded gallon markers indicate fluid levels at a glance. It lacks road tie-down flanges, making it unsuitable for mobile vehicle transport.

Molded from virgin high-density polyethylene resin, the seamless cylinder shrugs off outdoor weathering, impacts, and agricultural salts. The seamless rotary molding process eliminates split-prone joint seams entirely. A 2-inch female NPT polypropylene bulkhead fitting enables low-level gravity drainage. The empty tank weighs 140 lbs, spanning a 49-inch diameter base with a 67-inch vertical height.

Hydrostatic Hoop Expansion Proof Metrics

Hydrostatic pressure tests under 4500 lbs of liquid payload prove cylindrical wall expansion stays under 0.065 inches. The molded plastic exhibits zero stress fracturing after 500 hours of continuous high-intensity UV exposure. The bottom outlet boss withstands 50 foot-pounds pipe wrench torque without joint distortion. Wall thickness remains uniform within 0.015 inches across the entire lower body.

Stationary Yard Placement Negative Restrictions

Place this large vertical tank on a flat, reinforced concrete slab or compacted crushed stone pad. Farm hands fill the top opening from bulk delivery hoses. Do not use this upright, flat-bottom container for mobile highway transport, volatile gasoline storage, or pressurized pneumatic fluid systems.

• Inspect bottom drain valve threads for chemical crusting every thirty operating days
• Flush tank base sediment with clean water prior to off-season winter storage
• Inspect top vent mesh screen for insect blockage during warm spring months
