Silvan 400L Bare DIY Firefighter Tank, Baffled SquatPak with Base Plate

Some growers would rather build a fire unit to suit the gear they already own. That is where a Selecta 400L SquatPak bare tank earns its keep on a rural property. It comes baffled and fitted with a base plate, leaving you to add the pump, hose and reel. Suction fittings are supplied so a range of pump and hose setups can be mounted.

The 400L size suits a ute tray, a small trailer or a fixed spot near the shed. Baffling inside the tank holds the water steadier when you drive across paddocks and tracks. Many owners pair a bare tank like this with a spare pump or a second-hand motor. Others build a washdown or trough filling rig and keep the fire kit for summer. It also works as a backup body when an older firefighter tank finally gives up.
