Dongfeng Tianlong 8x4 25,500 L Aluminum Fuel Tanker

This 8x4 fuel tanker is sized for bulk transfers of gasoline and diesel between depots, terminals and large filling stations. The 25,500 L tank is made from 5182 aluminum alloy with 6 mm walls, heads and baffles, which keeps the curb weight at 11,585 kg and leaves a rated payload of about 20.2 t within a 32,000 kg gross vehicle weight.

The chassis is a Dongfeng Tianlong KL with a D320 cab, a 350 hp Dongfeng Longqing Euro 6 diesel and a 9JS135TA nine-speed manual gearbox, riding on 295/80R22.5 tires with a 5.5 t front axle and 10 t rear axles. Tank equipment includes two Euro-style manhole lids, a bottom emergency valve with audible alarm, a bottom loading system with vapor recovery, anti-overflow probe and anti-static reel, and an 80-60 pump for loading and discharge. Electronic braking, stability control, forward-collision warning, lane-departure warning and tire pressure monitoring are fitted from the factory.

The single-compartment layout suits operators who move one fuel grade per trip on highway and trunk routes. At 11.6 m long, the truck needs depot-scale turning space rather than narrow village lanes. Buyers can specify paint, tank markings and discharge fittings, and should confirm the final compartment layout and axle loads against local regulations before ordering.
