Need a compact, reliable fire unit for your ATV or UTV?
Bushfire Store’s Slip On Fire Units are compact, reliable, and designed to meet the everyday needs of farmers, property owners, and civil crews across Australia. These units provide a multi-functional solution that is perfect for landowners.
What is a Slip On Fire Unit?
A Slip On Fire Unit is a self contained firefighting system that can be mounted onto a ute tray, trailer, ATV, or UTV. It typically includes a tank, pump, hose reel, and control features. These units are commonly used during bushfire season but are also practical year round for tasks like water cartage, dust suppression, and stock watering.
What sizes do these Slip On Units come in?
We offer sizes ranging from 200L to 1000L, but our 200L–400L range is especially suited to small utility vehicles, like ATVs and UTVs. These units are light enough to be portable while still holding enough water for effective fire suppression and other jobs on the land.
Are Slip On Fire Units only for firefighting?
Not at all. Many of our customers use these units for:
- Watering trees and stock trough
- Dust suppression on unsealed roads
- Irrigation in remote areas
- General water transport around farms or worksites
It’s a versatile tool, especially when you’re working away from main source of water.

How do I choose the right Slip On Unit?
Ask yourself:
- What will I use it for?
Firefighting, irrigation, or general water work? That’ll help you pick a model with the right fittings and hose options.
- What vehicle will it go on?
For ATVs and UTVs, our 200L to 400L options are popular because they offer balance and mobility without weighing your vehicle down.
