Use Cases
Common use cases include municipal road watering and park/greenbelt irrigation where the truck acts as a water sprinkler / watering bowser, and construction or mining dust suppression & site flushing where high flow pumps and water cannons are required. These HOWO tanker variants (also sold as water bowser, water sprinkler truck, or tanker truck) are configurable for front/side/rear spraying, high-pressure cannon and suction/self-priming options.

Detailed Description
The HOWO 6x4 water tanker family spans light 6–8 m³ municipal units up to 20,000–25,000 L (20–25 m³) heavy units, and engine choices commonly include ≈340 HP, 336–371 HP, or 375–400 HP depending on chassis (HOWO HW76 / TX / NX series). This range lets buyers match horsepower to payload — heavier 20–25 m³ tankers are paired with 336–400 HP engines to maintain road speed and climb performance under full load.
For operational features, most commercial HOWO tankers offer carbon-steel / aluminum / stainless tank materials, multi-nozzle spray systems, rear work platform with water cannon, and pump options delivering ~60–120 m³/h (depending on pump spec). Advantages: strong driveline (high HP), large configurable tank capacity, and modular pump/spray systems — all of which make these trucks flexible for export or domestic municipal fleets.
