For hazardous liquid and gas transportation
Since 1936, CBC Global has been manufacturing specialized containers or drums to transport liquid and gas commodities in various hazard classes. Our single goal is to ensure that our customers do not have a release of any commodity.
Hazard classes that CBC Global tanks can transport include:
- Class 2 poisons-by-inhalation (PIH) gases of Div 2.1 and Div. 2.3 (zones B, C & D)
- Class 3 flammable liquids
- Class 4 pyrophoric (dangerous when wet) materials
- Class 6 toxic or infectious liquids
- Commodities such as Chlorine (contenedores de cloro), Ammonia, Refrigerants, Hydrogen Sulfide, Sulfur Dioxide, Sulfur Hexafluoride, Dinitrogen Tetroxide, etc.
CBC Global manufactures both the 106 and 110 styles of approved multi-unit tank car tanks for the transportation of gases and liquids under the US Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), as listed in 49 CFR 172.101.
106A Series
For chlorine, refrigerant gas, and liquid transportation
The US DOT 106A multi-unit tank car tanks, commonly referred to as Ton Tanks or Ton Containers, and internationally recognized as a horizontal drum or pressure vessel, are commonly used for the transportation of hazardous gases and liquids. These include:
- Class 2 gases including PIH gases of Div. 2.1 and Div. 2.3 (Zones B, C & D) Class 3 flammable liquids
- Class 4 pyrophoric (dangerous when wet) materials
- Class 6 toxic or infectious liquids
- Commodities such as Chlorine (contenedores de cloro), Ammonia, Refrigerants, Dinitrogen Tetroxide, etc.
CBC Global 106A horizontal tank series has the exclusive safety-engineered feature of inverted heads. If a tank is accidentally over-pressured, the heads will reverse (become convex) or push out, providing an immediate visual indication of over-pressurization. The reversed heads also provide additional capacity to reduce the pressure and provide valuable time for safety or corrective action.
The 106A designs are approved for transportation of CL2 at 2000 lbs. and 2204 lbs. at a 125% filling density.
The 106A500X is the only container under the US Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) approved for transportation for Chlorine. The 106A tank series is approved for the IMDG Code for international acceptance (CA 1996070013).

110A Series
For transportation of chlorine, refrigerant gases, and other aggressive gases and liquids
US DOT 110A multi-unit tank car tanks, internationally known as horizontal drums or pressure vessels, are commonly used for the transportation of:
- Class 2 gases including PIH gases of Div. 2.3 (zones B, C & D)
- Most class 3 flammable liquids
- Class 4 pyrophoric (dangerous when wet) materials
- Class 6 toxic or infectious liquids
- Class 8 corrosive liquids (stainless tanks only)
- Commodities such as refrigerants, fire-extinguishing gases, etc.
CBC Global models 110A500W, 110A800W, and 110A1000W are approved containers under the US Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) and the 110A2000W is authorized by the US DOT under a Special Permit. The 110A tank series is approved for the IMDG Code for international acceptance (CA 1996070013) as a horizontal drum or pressure vessel.

- Service Temperature Range: -40 to 140°F (-40 to 60°C)
- Tare Weight Range: 1,200 lbs. (544 kg) to 2,815 lbs. (1,277 kg)
Container accessories and safety products
Training ends, transport skids, recovery vessels, and other spare parts
CBC Global offers a full assortment of safety items, spare parts, and accessories to support your continued use of our 106A and 110A DOT tanks (contenedores de cloro). The list below is a summary of what we have to offer, please contact us if you do not see a product to meet your specific needs.
Emergency Kit A (For cylinders rated from 100 lbs. to 150 lbs.) – To stop most leaks that may occur in and around the valves, fusible plugs, and small leaks in the shell wall.
Emergency Kit B (For US DOT 106A tanks) – To stop most leaks that may occur in and around the valves, fusible plugs, and small leaks in the shell wall.
CBC Global Spare Parts – We offer spare parts including bonnets, valves, fuse plugs, lugs, locking screws, and wrenches.
CBC Global Accessories – We sell a full line of accessories including taps, flexible connectors, loading hoses, yokes, and yoke adapters, lifting beams, roller trunnions, and scales.
Recovery Vessel – CBC Global offers a completely pressure-tight way to stop leaks that may occur on 150 lbs. and smaller cylinders. This unit has a unique design that allows the hazardous materials team to completely seal a leaking cylinder and then remove it from the accident site for decontamination and recovery at a safe location.
106A Training End – Fire departments and other hazardous materials teams can now get hands-on emergency procedures practice using the Chlorine Institute’s Emergency Kit B on this Training End. The CBC Global Training End is an actual full-size end of a Standard DOT 106A500X chlorine ton container, mounted on a support base. This allows hazardous materials crews to easily practice applying the component parts of the Emergency Kit B.
Transport Skids – CBC Global has designed a unique solution for lifting, transporting, and storing the 106A and 110A US DOT-style tanks. Our saddle and strap design allows you to place the tank into a cradle with an over-the-top strap and locking mechanism that has forklift pockets mounted underneath for easy transportation.
