Product Description
The ZW Group 3 axle 48,500L mirror polished aluminum fuel tanker semi trailer is a high-efficiency solution designed for safe and cost-effective fuel transportation. Built for long-distance delivery of diesel, gasoline, and petroleum products, this aluminum fuel tanker semi trailer delivers superior payload performance while reducing operational costs.
Constructed with high-strength 5454-H32 aluminum alloy, the tanker achieves a significant 3–5 ton tare weight reduction compared to steel tankers, enabling up to 10% higher payload under legal weight limits. Its corrosion-resistant structure ensures long service life and maintains fuel purity without internal coating. This aluminum fuel tanker semi trailer is widely used in Africa, the Middle East, and global fuel logistics markets where efficiency and durability are critical.
Key Features & Advantages
Ultra Lightweight Aluminum Structure
This aluminum fuel tanker semi trailer reduces tare weight by 3–5 tons, improving payload capacity and reducing fuel consumption per trip.
Mirror Polished Tank Body
High-gloss polished exterior improves appearance, reduces dirt adhesion, and enhances long-term maintenance efficiency.
Zero Corrosion & Rust Protection
Natural oxide layer of 5454-H32 aluminum ensures long-term corrosion resistance for petroleum transport applications.
High Payload Efficiency
Lower tare weight allows operators to carry more fuel per trip within legal axle load limits, improving profitability.
Advanced WABCO Braking System
Equipped with ABS/EBS full-disc braking system for enhanced safety and stable braking performance under full load.
BPW / FUWA Axle Configuration
Premium axle systems with aluminum hubs reduce unsprung weight and improve operational stability.
Lower Total Operating Cost
Reduced fuel consumption, higher payload efficiency, and longer service life significantly reduce total cost of ownership.
