Fol-Da-Tank Frameless Open Top Collapsible Water Tank | Capacity 500 Gallon

DESCRIPTION

The 500‑Gallon Fol‑Da‑Tank® Frameless Open Top Collapsible Water Tank is a lightweight yet rugged portable water storage solution designed for rapid deployment in demanding field conditions. Built from tough PVC chemical‑resistant polyester, it offers exceptional tear, abrasion, and puncture resistance for long service life.

Its frameless, self‑supporting design with a foam collar allows a single operator to set up and fill the tank in minutes — no tools or assembly required. High sidewalls make it suitable for helicopter bucketing in wildfire suppression, while its compact 24″ × 17″ collapsed size ensures easy transport and storage.

Ideal for use as a reservoir, mixing tank, or relay tank, this model comes standard with a 2.5″ NST female flange for seamless integration with firefighting and water transfer equipment.
