Real Specifications

Ace Roto-Mold specific gravity standardStandard tank rated to 1.7 SG (SG = chemical weight per gallon ÷ 8.33 lb/gal water); higher service temperatures lower the SG rating — the two trade off, not independent specsace-roto-mold-application-guidelines.md
Ace Roto-Mold UV ratingUV rating "15" on most products: after 15,000 hours of sun exposure, 50% of UV protection remainsace-roto-mold-application-guidelines.md
Ace Roto-Mold service temperature limitsSustained temperatures up to 120°F (49°C), intermittent up to 140°F (60°C), depending on chemistry/SG/tank size/wall thicknessace-roto-mold-application-guidelines.md

Install / Failure Note

Ace Roto-Mold distinguishes "wet" fittings (exposed to chemical) from "dry" fittings: a wet fitting must be rated below the freezing point of the actual chemical/solution in the tank, not just the ambient temperature a heater or heat band targets — e.g. calcium chloride solutions are commonly rated to -20°F. Specifying a fitting to the ambient design temperature instead of the chemical's actual freeze point is a real field failure mode.

Ag chemical tanks live outdoors year-round, so Ace Roto-Mold's SG-vs-temperature tradeoff and its quantified 15,000-hour UV rating matter more here than in a climate-controlled plant — and the fitting-freeze-point distinction, where a wet fitting has to be rated to the chemical's actual freeze point rather than the ambient design temperature, is exactly the detail that gets skipped when a tank is spec'd off a capacity number alone.
