All water trucks are manufactured and designed by McLellan and can be customized to your specific need, including a stainless steel option.

4000 gallon, 'A' style tank.

1 - SINGLE LONGITUDINAL TOP WELD SEAM
- A stronger shell with better structural integrity that will extend the life of your truck.
2 - FULL BOX BOLSTER
- 1/4 inch (0.635 cm) double-welded bolsters double the strength forming a tube like section. Superior design versus a typical "L" shaped single-weld bolster.
3 - BOX SECTION SUB-FRAME
- Lengthens tank life by distributing the weight of a full load into a "hat section" with flanges covering more contact area than a "L" section sub-frame.
4 - DISHED & FLANGED HEADS/BAFFLES
- Reduced roll-over rates by dampening the impact from slosh dynamics. No flat surfaces, 1 1/4 radius corners. More baffles per inch than most manufacturers
