Engineer-specified truck-mount and trailer-mount plastic tanks for water cartage, fuel transfer, dust suppression and field dosing.
Industrial Plastics fabricates custom truck and trailer-mount plastic tanks in HDPE (PE100) and polypropylene for water cartage, dust suppression, mining-haul road bowsers, council fleet, agricultural spraying and fuel transfer applications. Internal baffles, dished ends, frame mounts and saddle interfaces designed to your chassis.
Brisbane workshop, since 1971. ISO 9001:2015 certified by SGS. Tanks designed to DVS 2205 and welded to DVS 2207 by qualified welders.
Truck-mount tank applications
Water cartage
2,000–30,000 L cartage tanks for civil construction, council and rural water delivery. Internal baffles, top manway, bottom valving.
Dust suppression
Mining and quarry haul-road water trucks. Abrasion-rated PE100 RC. Optional pump and spray-bar mounts.
Spray & field dosing
Agriculture and council weed-spray rigs. PP for chemical compatibility, calibrated graduations, pump platforms.
Fuel & lube
Bunded diesel and fuel transfer tanks. AS 1940 compliant. Trailer-mount or truck-tray.
How we engineer truck tanks
Engineering considerations
- Internal baffles: reduce slosh and dynamic loading on chassis
- Dished or sloped ends: drainage, structural rigidity
- Frame, saddle and tie-down points: designed to your chassis or trailer
- Manways, fill ports, vents, level indicators to your spec
- Wall thickness calculated for static head + dynamic loading + abrasion margin
- AS/NZS 4766 for static design; AS/NZS 4929 for abrasion-resistant grades
