The UWS 50-gallon black rectangular transfer tank is a pickup truck based hauling solution for use in transporting non-potable water and non-flammable liquids,* including diesel fuel.** The tank mounts behind the cab within truck beds, leaving the rest of the truck bed available for other items. Additional features include: a vented tank cap, an additional threaded hole for installation of a pump (sold separately), durable aluminum construction with a black powder coat finish and internal baffles.

50 Gallons of Portable Storage for Non-flammable Liquids

The UWS TT-50-R-T/P-blk black 50-gallon rectangular transfer tank is designed for transporting water and non-flammable liquids to work sites, and farm locations in pickup truck beds. The tank has a 50-gallon capacity, and is constructed of durable, corrosion-resistant .125" gauge aluminum with welded seams throughout and a black powder coat finish. The treadplate exterior provides incidental traction, as well as good looks that complement any vehicle, and the black powder coat finish serves as a good base for painting the tank. Its dimensions are 36" (l) x 19" (w) x 19" (h). The tank is intended to sit within compatible truck beds, flush against the back of the cab. At only 36" wide, the tank fits between the wheel wells of most standard compact, mid-size or full-size pickup varieties. This minimizes wasted space at contact points within the truck bed, allowing for storage of items along the sides of the tank, and in the remainder of the truck bed.

Ease of Installation and Use

The transfer tank has integrated mounting flanges oriented along its bottom edge. The flanges allow the tank to be bolted to the truck bed, which ensures that it will remain secure during transit (mounting hardware sold separately). Once installed, the tank is designed for ease of use. There are two threaded holes along the tank's top. One of these is for a commercial-grade tank cap (included), which serves to both secure the contents of the tank, while also relieving the build-up of pressure within it. Relief of pressure is important when the tank is used to transport diesel fuel, which is combustable under pressure. (The tank should never be connected to a vehicle's fuel system for use as an auxiliary tank, and it is not suitable for safe use in transporting gasoline) The second threaded hole is designed to accept a variety of pump types (sold separately), which can be used to conveniently dispense liquids at work sites. The internal structure of the tank contains baffles to minimize sloshing of liquid contents when a vehicle is in motion, while a drain plug at the driver's side allows for easy flushing of the tank.
