B-TANK
WATER TRUCK
BRING WATER WHERE YOU NEED IT.
A leaner, cost-efficient build for dust control and potable water — engineered with the renowned McLellan quality you can count on.
BUILT FOR
Dust control, construction, potable water, and more.
MCLELLAN "B" STYLE TANK CONSTRUCTION
Example configuration — built to your spec.
Single Longitudinal Weld Seam
One seam down the length of the shell instead of several — every weld you remove is a seam that can’t leak or split.
Box Section Sub-Frame
A closed box section holds its shape under load, whereas an open "L" section twists and leaves the tank fighting the chassis — working the seams loose.
Dished & Flanged Heads & Baffles
Increased structural integrity and road safety — prevents accelerated fluid movement when braking.
Choose the A-Tank for McLellan’s flagship, heavy-duty configuration with added structural reinforcement. For operations focused on essential performance and value, the B-Tank offers a leaner, cost-efficient build without compromising McLellan quality.
