42 CBM Bitumen Road Tanker Semi-Trailer

BRIEF

The 42 CBM bitumen road tanker semi-trailer produced by CSCTRUCK China Tank Truck is a high-capacity and durable transport solution specifically engineered for the safe and efficient delivery of hot bitumen used in road construction and infrastructure projects. With an overall length of 11,620 mm, a width of 2,550 mm, and a height of 3,800 mm, the trailer is designed to balance large volume capacity with stable road performance. It offers a substantial loading capacity of 42 cubic meters and a maximum gross vehicle weight of 55,000 kg, making it ideal for heavy-duty operations.

The tanker body features an elliptical shape constructed from 6 mm aluminum alloy 5038, ensuring a lightweight yet robust structure with excellent corrosion resistance. Internally, the tank is divided into 3 compartments, each equipped with aluminum alloy baffles and 500 mm manholes to enhance stability during transport. The inclusion of 3 API-standard aluminum manhole covers with breather valves, vapor vents, and oil gauges ensures safe pressure management and monitoring.

Operational efficiency is further enhanced by 3 pneumatic bottom valves and 100 mm discharging valves, complemented by a vapor recovery system that minimizes emissions. The tanker is also fitted with non-slip aluminum walkways, top safety rails, anti-static grounding, and fire extinguishers to maximize safety during loading and unloading.

The chassis adopts a full aluminum frame design with a detachable structure for flexible transportation and maintenance. Equipped with three 13-ton BPW axles, airbag suspension, and a WABCO pneumatic braking system, the trailer ensures excellent load distribution, ride comfort, and braking reliability. Additional components such as JOST landing gear, durable aluminum wheel rims, tubeless tires, and advanced lighting systems further enhance its operational reliability.

Overall, this bitumen tanker semi-trailer combines advanced materials, safety features, and engineering precision to meet demanding industrial transport requirements.
