Tuff Terrain’s underbody 60L side mount tank tucks under the truck or trailer and keeps water out of the tray space, meaning more room for tools and gear. The side mount layout works on either side of a toolbox, which suits mixed fleets and different body builders. The front recess takes a hand cleaner bottle, meaning quick wash-ups after greasy jobs out on site.

The tank uses 100% Australian food grade polyethylene that meets AS 4020 and AS 2070, which keeps it fit for contact with drinking water. The extra thick one-piece mould comes up tough against flying stones and road grime, meaning fewer worries on rough back roads. UV stabilised plastic handles full sun under Aussie conditions, which helps the tank go the distance. Local computer-controlled manufacture keeps dimensions consistent, making this unit a smart buy for repeat builds.

Q: Can this tank be used for drinking water?

A: Yes, the tank uses food grade polyethylene that meets Australian standards AS 4020 and AS 2070. These standards cover plastics in contact with potable water and food. The material does not leach harmful contaminants under normal use. You must still use suitable hoses and fittings that are rated for drinking water.

Q: Do I need straps to secure this tank?

A: Most installations do not require separate straps because the tank’s moulded shape supports itself. A qualified fitter still needs to mount it to solid structure. They may add brackets or supports to suit the vehicle. Final responsibility for restraint rests with the installer.

Q: Where is this tank usually mounted on a vehicle?

A: The 60L side mount tank often sits at the end of a truck or trailer toolbox. The slim profile suits underbody rails along the vehicle side. Installers choose a spot with clearance from exhausts and moving parts. Local regulations on ground clearance and load restraint still apply.

Q: Does the tank come with hoses or fittings?

A: No, the tank is supplied as the moulded poly body only. Plumbing components like hoses, valves and clamps are selected separately. This lets installers match sizes to existing pumps or pipework. A competent fitter will specify compatible drinking-water grade fittings.

Q: Who should install this underbody tank?

A: Tuff Terrain advises that only a qualified person installs the tank. Underbody gear must be secured to handle dynamic loads and vibration. A professional checks chassis layout, drilling points and clearances. Proper installation helps avoid damage to the tank and vehicle.
