Carbon steel fuel tank
Carbon steel oil tanks are made of high-quality carbon structural steel plate welding, with high strength, impact resistance, and obvious cost advantages. They are widely used for storing diesel, gasoline, palm oil, crude oil, water, and other media. They can be made into tank semi-trailers or fixed storage tanks, suitable for African road conditions and storage needs.
core material
Main body:
Q235B / Q345B 碳钢
(Optional)Q235B: versatility, suitable for room temperature oil, water, cost-effective;
Q345B: High-strength carbon steel, lighter tank, better pressure, the first choice for long-distance transportation tankers;
Accessories flanges, manholes, and nozzles are made of the same carbon steel material, and anti-corrosion coatings can be made on demand.
tank structure
Tank body + oval/dish head, welding molding, non-destructive testing of welds, anti-leakage;
Internal optional
anti-wave board
The vehicle buffers the impact of liquid while driving, enhancing driving safety.Top configuration: manhole cover, breathing valve, inlet, safety valve;
Bottom: discharge port, drain valve, drain port;
It can be divided into multiple warehouses: a tank is divided into 2 to 4 warehouses, and a variety of oils can be transported simultaneously.
Anti-corrosion treatment (very critical, Africa is rainy and humid)
Exterior of the tank: sandblasting and rust removal, primer + intermediate paint + topcoat, epoxy zinc-rich/epoxy asphalt paint is optional, resistant to rain, saline and alkali corrosion;
Inside the tank:
Loading diesel/crude oil: simple rust removal + epoxy anti-corrosion;
Edible oil (palm oil): food grade epoxy coating;
提示：碳钢不能长期储存强腐蚀性化学品。
Common volume specifications (mainstream of trailer tanks)
20M3/25m3/30m3/35m3/40m3/45m3, customizable size.
applicable medium
Diesel, heavy oil, crude oil, palm oil, vegetable oil, water
❌Strong acid and alkali, strong corrosive chemical liquid
Product advantages (foreign trade selling points)
The supply of carbon steel materials is stable, and the price is lower than that of stainless steel. African customers are the first choice.
Sturdy structure, resistant to bumps, suitable for poor road conditions in Africa.
Easy maintenance, local welders can repair the weld.
Support customization: single/multi-warehouse, accessory selection, color, installation base (fixed tank) or trailer frame (tank car);
Factory water pressure/airtight test to ensure no oil leakage.
optional accessories
Manhole, breathing valve, emergency shut-off valve, drain ball valve, liquid level gauge, anti-static device, safety guardrail, ladder.
