Real Specifications
| Spec | Value | Source document |
|---|---|---|
| Ace Roto-Mold specific gravity standard | Standard 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 specs | Ace Roto-Mold — Application Guidelines (Doc WIC8.4-01, 12-2024) |
| Ace Roto-Mold UV rating | UV rating "15" on most products: after 15,000 hours of sun exposure, 50% of UV protection remains | Ace Roto-Mold — Application Guidelines (Doc WIC8.4-01, 12-2024) |
| Ace Roto-Mold service temperature limits | Sustained temperatures up to 120°F (49°C), intermittent up to 140°F (60°C), depending on chemistry/SG/tank size/wall thickness | Ace Roto-Mold — Application Guidelines (Doc WIC8.4-01, 12-2024) |
| Peabody ProChem NSF-61 Ag/Hydroponics Tank range | 25-10,000 gal, 100% virgin FDA resin, UV rated 20 years direct sunlight | Peabody Engineering — General Product Catalog (July 2026) |
| Snyder agricultural IBC range | Tank sizes 8-20,000 gal for agricultural chemicals/fertilizers; returnable IBCs meet UN/DOT standards for hazardous/non-hazardous pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, and seed treatment chemicals | Snyder Industries — Industrial Tanks & Fittings |
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.
