Poly or Steel Fuel Tanks for Diesel?
Here’s a breakdown to help you decide:
- Poly: Generally a more affordable option, lightweight, and resistant to rust and corrosion. Ideal for above-ground storage.
- Steel: More expensive but offers great strength and durability, especially in harsh environments. May require additional corrosion protection. Better suited for below-ground storage.
For most free-standing diesel storage applications, poly tanks are a great choice due to their affordability, durability, and ease of use.
How to Choose the Correct Diesel Fuel Tank Size?
The right size tank depends on your fuel consumption rate and how often you plan to refill. Here are some factors to consider:
- Equipment fuel consumption: Calculate the average fuel consumption of the equipment you’ll be refuelling.
- Refueling frequency: Consider how often you typically need to refuel your equipment.
- Storage buffer: Factor in a buffer to account for unexpected delays in fuel deliveries.
Here’s a general guideline:
- Low consumption/infrequent refuelling: 200L – 500L tank
- Moderate consumption/average refuelling: 1000L – 2000L tank
- High consumption/frequent refuelling: 3000L+ tank
It’s always best to choose a slightly larger tank size than you initially think you need to avoid running out of fuel unexpectedly. Contact Rapid Spray if you need help selecting the most suitable tank size for your needs.
