85 Litre Upright Water Tank
Product Overview
The 85 Litre Upright Water Tank is a compact and versatile solution for the storage and transportation of potable water and a wide range of other compatible liquids.
Manufactured from durable MDPE / polyethylene, this upright tank provides a nominal capacity of 85 litres, equivalent to approximately 19 imperial gallons. Its compact upright design makes it a practical choice where reliable water storage is required but available space is limited.
The tank is manufactured in natural translucent medium-density polyethylene, allowing the approximate water level to be viewed through the tank wall. This provides a convenient way to monitor the remaining contents without having to remove the lid.
With an empty weight of approximately 7 kg and dimensions of 310 × 600 × 500 mm, the tank is relatively lightweight and easy to position, while providing a useful amount of water storage for a variety of domestic, commercial and mobile applications.
The standard configuration includes a 3/4" BSP outlet and 6" lid, with optional BSP outlet configurations and positioning available. A range of accessories is also available, including tap kits, hosetail kits, float valves and outlet plugs.

All our tanks are available for collection ex works. Our suppliers are based all over the UK — please call if you wish to collect.
Overseas orders
International orders are welcome. Payment is by IBAN / SWIFT / BIC, MoneyGram and letters of credit. We regret that credit cards are not accepted for international orders.
A purchase order is required; we will then create a pro-forma invoice, and tanks are ordered on clearance of funds.
If you require additional export documentation — for example a Certificate of Origin, or commercial invoices certified by the Chamber of Commerce — you must notify us before completion of your order, as we will have to invoice cost and admin charges to the order.
