Elkhart Plastics 46 Gallon RV Holding Tank - Premium Black Water Storage Solution
The Elkhart Plastics 46 gallon RV holding tank (EPI 614H / H858003) delivers professional-grade black water storage with proven durability and seamless construction. Measuring 64" x 32" x 8 7/16", this holding tank has the molded connection layout shown on its original print while maintaining the structural integrity and quality standards that Elkhart Plastics is known for throughout the RV industry.
Manufactured using advanced rotational molding technology, this 46 gallon waste tank features uniform 0.180" wall thickness in high-density black polyethylene, eliminating weak spots and ensuring consistent performance under the demanding conditions of RV travel and use.
Why Choose This Elkhart Plastics 46 Gallon Holding Tank?
Seamless Roto-Molded Construction: Unlike welded or seamed tanks that can develop leaks over time, this holding tank is manufactured using Elkhart Plastics' proprietary rotational molding process. The result is a one-piece, seamless tank with uniform wall thickness throughout, providing superior strength and leak-proof performance that lasts for years.
Print-Defined Connection Layout: The drawing shows a recessed 3-inch outlet and a 1-inch vent tube. Match the sloped profile, connection locations and flange to your installation before selecting separate valves or adapters.
Premium Black Polyethylene Material: Manufactured from high-density black polyethylene with fewer impurities than standard tanks, this 46 gallon holding tank resists UV degradation, chemical breakdown, and impact damage. The 0.180" wall thickness provides exceptional durability while maintaining reasonable weight for RV applications.
Proven Elkhart Plastics Quality: With decades of experience manufacturing RV holding tanks for major OEM manufacturers, Elkhart Plastics has earned its reputation for producing tanks that meet rigorous quality and health safety standards. This tank is built to the same specifications used by leading RV manufacturers.
Optimal Capacity and Dimensions: The 46 gallon capacity provides extended holding capability for larger RVs or extended trips, while the 64" x 32" x 8 7/16" low-profile dimensions fit common RV underbelly configurations without sacrificing ground clearance.

Understanding the Manufacturing Process
Elkhart Plastics uses a specialized rotational molding process that sets their tanks apart from competitors. High-density plastic resin is loaded into a mold, which is then rotated on multiple axes while being heated. This rotation ensures the molten plastic coats every surface evenly, creating walls of consistent thickness with no seams, welds, or weak points.
The original 614H drawing labels a 1-inch vent tube. Use the retained print to identify the connection layout.
Installation and Connection Matching
Professional installation is recommended. Match the retained print’s recessed 3-inch outlet and 1-inch vent tube to your RV plumbing and allow clearance for adapters, valves and mounting hardware. Those separate components are not included. Do not assume arbitrary fitting locations or modify the tank without suitable installation guidance.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the top mark on the drawing identify?
The original print labels a 1-inch vent tube; it is not described as a nonfunctional sealed manufacturing hole.
Can I install the plumbing connections myself?
While it's possible for experienced DIYers to install fittings, we recommend professional installation to ensure proper placement, sealing, and compliance with RV plumbing standards. Improper fitting installation can lead to leaks or tank damage. Our AI Live Chat can provide guidance on fitting selection and installation best practices.
What's the difference between EPI 614H and H858003?
These are simply different part number designations for the same tank. EPI 614H is the Elkhart Plastics internal part number, while H858003 is an alternate reference number. Both refer to the identical 46 gallon, 64" x 32" x 8 7/16" holding tank.
How do I determine what size fittings I need?
The original print identifies a 3-inch outlet and a 1-inch vent tube. Select separate adapters and valves after comparing the drawing’s exact connection layout to your plumbing; equal capacity alone does not establish fitment.
Is this tank suitable for fresh water storage?
No, this tank is manufactured from black polyethylene and is designed specifically for black water (sewage) or grey water (drain water) holding applications. For fresh water storage, you need tanks manufactured from FDA-approved white or natural polyethylene. Browse our complete selection of RV water tanks to find appropriate fresh water storage options.
