Petroleum Tanker Trailer

The petroleum tanker trailer is used to transport petroleum products in liquid form and is usually arranged with an airbag suspension or a leaf spring suspension depending on the load and weight capacity.

The economic viability of a tank trailer lies not only in its increased capacity to carry more loads but also in the fact that less energy is used by a tractor to haul it from one destination to another.

We manufacture tank trailers of leading brands in the industry, and with a full range of carbon steel tank trucks, stainless steel tank trucks, and aluminum tank trucks, we serve the food, dairy and beverage, environmental, construction, refined fuel, agriculture, and other industries.

Why choose our petroleum tanker trailer?

Selecting and maintaining the correct tank trailer model is important because there are risks involved. Tank semi-trailers carry dangerous gases and liquids that are harmful to human health. If a spill occurs, some fluids may explode and cause loss of life. Therefore, you must insist on purchasing a tank semi-trailer that follows the correct manufacturing process.

How to maintain an oil tank semi-trailer？

1. Fuel tank: The most important aspect to consider when maintaining a storage tank is leakage.

Check the fuel tank for any holes, which may cause gas/fuel/oil/fluid leaks. Seal any leaking parts on the tank. Check the tank trailer body for any bends or deformations. If left unchecked, they can cause cracks when pressure changes during loading and unloading. The body of the tank should be smooth and even. Regularly clean the tank and polish its surface to prevent rust.

2. Valves and pressure gauges: Always check all valves, including hydraulic, safety, vacuum, and pressure valves. All valves shall be free from residue or corrosion. Also, check the pressure gauge to make sure it is in good condition and working properly.

Make sure each valve is functioning properly and is properly lubricated. Sometimes valves freeze in cold weather causing them to malfunction. Clean the valves and lubricate them regularly.

3. Bolts: Tighten all bolts during maintenance, including shock-absorbing bolts, U-bolts, and swivel ring bolts. Every bolt in a tank trailer must be tight enough to maintain its stability and strength. Replace any damaged bolts with new ones, making sure to select the correct size.

4. Tires: Maintain tires regularly to avoid overturning. Check the tires for wear and any damage, and replace any worn tires. Make sure the air pressure is always at the correct level. Poorly maintained tires can easily lead to accidents because they don't have the traction they need on the road when in use.

We have outlined some of the components of a tank trailer that must be checked regularly. However, all other components are also important and require proper maintenance every year. Also, please follow the safety guidelines provided by your country for such carriers/logistics companies.
