pillow water tanks
« on: April 16, 2009, 05:35:04 pm »
has anyone seen these pillow water tanks before, they are very tough, and repairable, and fold away if you dont have a garage, nice space saver, and come in all sizes, or can be custom made. also in a head on crash, i would think this would be safer than the hard plastic water tanks,

this one is huge, must be thousands of gallons in there,

60 US gallons = 227 litres
120 US gallons = 454

Good for crash testing i think.

All you need is some spikes to tear it open in a crash ?

Do you think the loose water would do as much damage ?

I dont expect they would be selling to the military, international rescue and relief services worldwide  if they were unstable.

The tank is constructed from heavy duty polyurethane coated nylon that is suitable for potable water. This material is highly puncture resistant, durable and flexible. It will not wrinkle, crease or crack. When not in use this unit can be folded or rolled up to take up almost no storage space.
