The custom built water carts and water cartage trucks designed and build at Shermac come with an array of water tanks, features, and mine spec options, all built to your specifications to suit any mining, civil, or commercial environment or requirement.
Here are just some of the options and features we offer with our mine spec water cartage trucks, so take a look and talk to our team about the custom water cartage solution you need.
Shermac’s Roadserve 1500 Series Water Carts are engineered for dependable dust suppression and efficient water transport across mining, civil and commercial environments. Each unit is designed and manufactured in Australia using fully baffled steel tanks and mine-spec componentry, with proven spray systems built to withstand continuous vibration and rough terrain.
The compact footprint and low centre of gravity support stable handling on uneven ground. Spray systems, access points and hydraulic controls are arranged for simple, predictable use by operators working long shifts. Tanks can be configured up to 15,000 litres and matched to any 6×4 or 6×6 chassis, giving you a purpose-built cart that fits your fleet and meets your operational requirements.
Custom configurations are available for dust suppression, general cartage, roadworks and light-to-medium mining applications.
Every Shermac 6×4 and 6×6 water cart is mine-spec compliant as standard. Safety lighting, compliant access, isolation points and emergency stops are integrated into the build. ROPS and FOPS can be added where required by site standards.
The fully baffled steel tank is designed for constant vibration and uneven terrain. Internal baffles reduce surge and maintain stability while helping protect the chassis under heavy loads.
The tank sits low within the chassis to support safe, predictable handling. This layout keeps the truck balanced across rough haul roads and improves both braking performance and cornering control.
A hydraulic-driven centrifugal pump provides dependable flow for dust suppression and general water cartage. Batter sprays, a central fan spray and multiple dribble bar options can be configured for broad coverage or targeted application.
Operators manage spray and cannon functions through a simple, well-positioned in-cab panel. The layout reduces unnecessary movement and keeps operation efficient during long shifts.
Pumps, valves and spray components are arranged for straightforward access. This reduces service hours, keeps equipment available and supports predictable maintenance schedules across mixed fleets.
Tank capacity is matched to the GVM of your chosen 6×4 or 6×6 chassis. This ensures safe weight distribution and consistent performance across mining, civil and commercial applications.
All tanks are grit blasted, epoxy lined internally and finished with a two-pack external coating. Optional corrosion protection and heavy-duty componentry improve durability in high-heat, dust-heavy or abrasive environments.
16-ply deep lug tyres for better off-road durability.

Top End Civil
It’s definitely the best-looking water cart I’ve seen – it’s a real head-turner and I get positive comments about it every day.
While the compliments are nice, the real benefit is that I now have the best equipment and that maximises my productivity and helps me to do the best job possible. The truck has been fantastic and there is absolutely nothing I would change about the entire process of dealing with Shermac.
East Coast Generators
We wanted to specify the trailer to suit our needs – this involved the configuration and capacity of tanks and hose reel configurations. Shermac made the configuration process straightforward and seamless, and I was very happy with my interactions with the Shermac design team’.
‘The trailer was delivered on-time and as-specified and being able to deliver more efficient and effective on-site service, the expected benefits have been realised’
Rockall Pty Ltd
They really couldn’t have built a better unit. It has everything I specified to make it a really versatile piece of equipment – high, low, side and batter sprays, left and right dribble bars, self-fill setup, multi-function cannon, stabiliser setup, fire hose reel and even an enclosed pressure washer unit. Clients look at it and say, “this man has thought of everything!

It looks fantastic. We are super excited to take delivery of this watercart. If it's even half as good as the last Shermac built tank it will be amazing!
