When it comes to transporting petroleum products such as diesel, gasoline, and kerosene, efficiency and safety are not optional—they are essential. The Starway Vehicle 42CBM Aluminium Oil Tanker Trailer is engineered to meet the demanding needs of the modern fuel transport industry, combining lightweight construction with exceptional durability.
The tank body is crafted from premium-grade aluminum alloy, chosen for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio. Compared to carbon steel tankers, an aluminum tanker has a significantly lower tare weight, which means operators can carry more fuel within legal weight limits. This directly translates into higher transport efficiency and reduced fuel consumption for the tractor unit. Over the life of the trailer, the savings in operating costs can be substantial.
Aluminum’s natural resistance to rust and chemical degradation makes it ideal for long-term fuel transportation. In regions with high humidity, saline environments, or exposure to aggressive chemicals, this resistance ensures the tanker maintains both its structural integrity and its appearance over time, reducing the frequency and cost of repainting or repairs.
Whether you’re running short-haul fuel deliveries or long-distance bulk transport, the Starway Vehicle aluminium tanker can be tailor-made to suit your needs. The tank can be designed with multiple compartments—ranging from 3 to 12—allowing the safe and efficient distribution of different fuel types in a single trip. Each compartment is fitted with its own manhole cover and high-quality API discharge valves for controlled and safe unloading.
Transporting flammable liquids comes with inherent risks, and this trailer is equipped with multiple safety systems to mitigate them. These include bottom emergency valves for instant fuel flow cut-off, hydraulic folding safety rails for secure access during maintenance, and a non-slip walking platform to prevent accidents in slippery conditions. Fire extinguishers and emergency rescue tools are also included for on-the-spot response to unexpected incidents.
Starway Vehicle aluminium tankers are widely used across Africa, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and South America, where they have earned a reputation for reliability, low maintenance costs, and long service life. Operators value not only the trailer’s performance but also its adaptability to challenging climates and road conditions.
