Stainless Steel
Stainless steel is a high-quality, durable choice for mobile refueling tanks. It offers excellent corrosion resistance, effectively resisting the chemical attack of fuel, making it less susceptible to rust and leakage over long periods of use. It also boasts high mechanical strength, excellent impact and deformation resistance, and maintains structural stability even in the face of bumps and minor collisions during transportation. Furthermore, stainless steel offers a smooth, easy-to-clean surface, resists impurities, and is easy to maintain. Its long service life makes it particularly suitable for applications requiring long-term contact with various fuels and high safety requirements.
Aluminum Alloy
Aluminum alloy offers a balance between durability and practicality. Its light weight yet high strength reduces the overall weight of a mobile refueler, lowering power consumption while meeting daily pressure and impact resistance requirements. It also offers a certain degree of corrosion resistance, and surface treatment can further enhance its resistance to fuel and environmental factors. Aluminum alloy also offers excellent toughness, making it less susceptible to cracking due to low temperatures or prolonged use. It is suitable for applications requiring both high mobility and durability.
Carbon Steel
Carbon steel offers durability thanks to its high mechanical strength. Its high hardness and strong load-bearing capacity allow it to withstand significant pressure and external impact, making it suitable for mobile refuelers with large storage capacities and high tank structural strength requirements. Anti-corrosion treatment (such as spray coating) can improve its rust susceptibility and extend its service life. However, carbon steel is relatively heavy, which increases the operational burden of the equipment and requires regular maintenance of the anti-corrosion coating. It is therefore more suitable for fixed-site operations where weight sensitivity is less important.
Fiberglass
Fiberglass offers exceptional durability in specific scenarios. It has excellent corrosion resistance and strong tolerance to corrosive substances such as acids and alkalis, making it suitable for storing special types of fuel or operating in highly corrosive environments. Its light weight and excellent insulation properties reduce energy consumption and prevent safety hazards caused by static electricity. However, the fiberglass material has relatively weak impact resistance and is easily damaged by severe collisions. It is more suitable for use in smooth roads, stable operating environments, and environments with high requirements for corrosion resistance and insulation.
