Tanker Trailer Application
Tanker trailers are used in a wide range of applications, from food to industry. The following are liquid cargoes commonly transported by tank trailers:
Petroleum and Petroleum Products Transportation
One of the main functions of the tanker trailer is to transport petroleum and petroleum products. Including gasoline, diesel, kerosene, aviation kerosene, lubricating oil, etc. After these petroleum products are produced from the refinery, they will be transported to various places by tanker trailers. Aluminum tanker trailers are the first choice for transporting this type of cargo due to their corrosion resistance and lightweight. Other than that, using a carbon steel tanker trailer is a good option for cost savings. Because carbon steel is cheaper than aluminum.
Chemical Industry Liquid Transportation
In addition to transporting petroleum products, tank trailers can also be used to transport liquid chemical industrial products such as sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, sodium hydroxide, ethanol, and others. These chemical industrial products require transportation between production and distribution. As a specialized vehicle for liquid transport, tank trailers can safely and efficiently transport such goods. However, before using a tank trailer to transport chemical liquids, special treatment is required for the interior of the trailer. Such as coating anti-corrosion coating and so on.
Food Grade Liquid Transportation
Tank trailers are also widely used in the transportation of food-grade liquids. Such as edible oil, drinking water, fruit juice, milk, beverages, etc. After production, these food-grade liquids need to be transported between the production site and the packaging plant on tank trailers. Tank trailers used to transport food need to meet food safety and hygiene standards. These liquids are typically transported on stainless steel tank trailers. Because stainless steel is more in line with food safety and hygiene standards.

How are fuel tankers produced?
Step 1: Prepare raw materials
Cut the aluminum plate or steel plate into the standard size and thickness specified by ISO with a plasma cutting machine.
Step 2: Rolling Tank Truck Body
Use a rolling machine to connect multiple aluminum alloy plates or steel plates, and weld and fix them on both sides to form a 6 – 8mm thick metal cylinder.
Step 3: Prepare the front shell and tail shell
Use a plasma cutting machine to cut the front shell into the shape required by the drawing, then use a hydraulic bulging machine to shape it and form it at one time. Finally, use the deep side of the screw machine to make the edge of the head to about 6cm.
Step 4: Make the wave board
Use a plasma cutter and edger to make the desired shape of the anti-wave board according to the drawing. Cut inspection holes of different sizes on the surface of the anti-wave board and arrange them in a staggered manner.
Step 5: Oil storage tank body welding
Fix the tank body of the oil tanker by rotating machinery and adjust it to the appropriate angle. Use automatic welding and double-sided welding, with electrical control and remote monitoring, to avoid missing welding.
Step 6: Install toolboxes, guardrails, etc.
Install toolboxes, guardrails, and other accessories to complete the assembly of the oil tank trailer, forming a complete vehicle.
