Use Cases
Common use cases include bulk fuel delivery to petrol stations and depots and on-site refuelling for construction, mining, or agricultural operations; the trailer also serves as a mobile fuel storage/tanker for emergency supply. High capacity and compartmenting let operators transport multiple fuel grades safely and reduce delivery trips.

Detailed Description
This carbon-steel fuel tanker is built as a horizontal cylindrical tank with reinforced baffles and welded compartments to control liquid surge and separate different fuel grades. With a nominal capacity of 40,000–50,000 L, the unit is engineered for road compliance and heavy loads; typical features include a heavy-duty frame, anti-corrosion primer plus final orange coating, integrated manholes, ladder, and safety valves.
Because fuel density varies, the approximate payload when loaded depends on the product: using diesel density ≈0.85 kg/L, a 40,000 L load corresponds to ~34,000 kg of fuel and a 50,000 L load to ~42,500 kg — operators should size the tractor and choose axle ratings accordingly. Sturdy carbon steel construction and three axles provide the necessary structural strength and weight distribution for heavy payloads, while optional features (compartment count, pump packages, heating/coating) allow customization for petrol, diesel, or other liquid fuels.
