Engineered with seamless one-piece roto-molded construction from FDA-approved polyethylene, this compact 10-gallon tank provides superior durability and corrosion resistance compared to standard factory-installed tanks.
Measuring 17" L x 14" W x 9.5" H, this space-efficient fresh water tank fits tight underbelly compartments while providing ample water capacity for weekend trips and short excursions. The equal wall thickness design eliminates weak spots and ensures consistent performance in demanding mobile environments.
Why Choose the Elkhart Plastics 10 Gallon Fresh Water Tank?
FDA-Approved Safe Water Storage: Manufactured from food-grade polyethylene that meets FDA standards for potable water contact, ensuring your drinking water remains safe and uncontaminated throughout your travels.
Seamless Roto-Molded Construction: One-piece molding process creates a tank with no seams, welds, or joints that could leak or fail over time. Equal wall thickness throughout the entire tank body provides consistent strength and eliminates weak points.
Superior Corrosion & Stain Resistance: Unlike metal tanks that rust or corrode, this polyethylene construction resists staining, corrosion, and degradation from water treatment chemicals, minerals, and temperature fluctuations.
Compact Design for Tight Spaces: At just 17x14x9.5 inches, this 10-gallon tank fits underbelly compartments and tight installation areas where larger tanks won't work, making it ideal for smaller RVs, trailers, and custom builds.
Enhanced Durability: Impact-resistant polyethylene construction withstands road vibration, temperature extremes, and the rigors of mobile use far better than brittle factory tanks.
Authentic OEM Quality: Genuine Elkhart Plastics manufacturing ensures you receive the same quality tank trusted by RV manufacturers and professional installers nationwide.
