This is the water bladder that sits inside the tank, the rough position of the tank is outlined in red. The bladder was tailor made to suit the dims of the tank and the material the bladder is made from is Potable Water Approved.  Click image to enlarge 130's have feeling's as well you know  |

[s]Sonic[/s] AndrewS why you choose to use a bladder instead of a rigid tank made of plastic or inox? Matteo

Sonic  he is the shorter one 
The plastic 'hard' tanks are not available in the size or shape I required. Above the wheel arch on a HiCap Pick up is not as wide as a standard arch in the little Defenders  So the tank was constructed using the available space and I made the bladder to suit. 130's have feeling's as well you know |

Sorry for mistake, we know that you're more talented!!
How the bladder works? has a breather or is sealed, compressing while going empty? Matteo Defender 110 Td4 SE MY 09 |

The bladder is fixed at the top using the eyelets 5 each side and it hangs inside the tank structure. The bladder is slightly larger than the tank structure.
Tha bladder has a 50mm Ø fill a 25mm Ø breather and a 25mm Ø outlet at the base. 130's have feeling's as well you know |

The bladders are made bespoke to peoples requirements. Do a sketch with your requirements along with the size of the connections you require and I will price it up for you 130's have feeling's as well you know |
