The Husky Leading Edge® Folding Frame Portable Tank is an innovative, patented portable water tank that combines the full capacity of a traditional folding frame tank with the versatility of a narrow-profile tank for restricted access areas. Protected by U.S. Patent No. 10,913,597, the Leading Edge® Tank can be transformed in approximately 15 seconds by two people, allowing one side of the tank to fold inward and reduce its width for deployment on narrow roads, back roads, bridges, and other confined locations where traffic must continue to pass.
Unlike dedicated narrow tanks, the Leading Edge® functions as a full-capacity folding frame tank until a narrower footprint is needed. When required, one side simply folds down to create a standard 8-foot-wide profile—similar to Husky's Skinny® Tank—without any additional assembly. Available with durable Vinyl or exclusive EXLON® liners and your choice of steel or aluminum pinch-free frames, the Leading Edge® delivers unmatched flexibility for today's water shuttle operations.
