VEVOR Portable Diesel Tank, 116 Gallon
The VEVOR 116-gallon tank combines a rugged polyethylene body with a lockable upper lid for theft deterrence. Its 6mm shell thickness (with thicker portions up to 12mm) supports outdoor use and weather exposure. A 12V transfer pump delivers about 10.6 GPM, making refueling quick for trucks or generators. A mechanical fuel gauge helps monitor volume, which helps prevent overfilling. The duplex filtration system removes both large and small impurities for cleaner diesel. Best for mid- to large-scale refueling on job sites or rural operations. Caution: ensure the lock and lid are secured before transport to avoid accidental opening.
VEVOR Portable Diesel Tank 116 Gallon Capacity
This variant mirrors the 116-gallon model with similar performance: 12V pump, duplex filtration, and a lockable lid. It is best for buyers who want identical core features in a gray design. Best for fleets needing replacement units without changing configuration. Caution: check local transport regulations for portable fuel tanks during transit.
VEVOR Portable Diesel Tank, 58 Gallon
The 58-gallon variant offers a compact option with the same build quality: UV-resistant polyethylene, lockable lid with copper lock, 12V transfer pump, and a duplex filter system. Choose this if you operate smaller sites, limited vehicle access, or need a lightweight backup tank. Caution: lower capacity means more frequent refills on large fleets.
EliteEdge 105 Gallon Portable Fuel Tank
This 105-gallon model is designed for heavy-duty use on trucks, farms, and generators. It features a high-flow 12V pump and a built-in fuel gauge for quick level checks. The HDPE construction adds UV resistance and impact durability. Best for operators who need quick refueling on the move. Limitation: heavy weight when full may require secure mounting in a truck bed or trailer.
DEE ZEE DZ91753SB 106 Gallon
Dee Zee offers a 106-gallon rectangle transfer tank in heavy-duty black steel with a textured powder coat for corrosion protection. Its shape contributes to space efficiency in pickup beds. Best for buyers prioritizing steel durability and a rugged, long-lasting transfer tank. Caution: steel tanks can be heavier and may require more secure mounting than plastic options.
Weather Guard 100-Gallon Transfer Tank
Weather Guard presents a 100-gallon transfer tank designed for full-size pickups and hydraulic fluids. The 100-gallon capacity makes it suitable for sustained work sessions. Best for users who want a DOT-friendly option with clear capacity planning. Caution: verify compatibility with the fluids you transport, as some Weather Guard models specify non-flammable fluids only.
Buying Guide
- Capacity vs. workload: For long jobs or larger fleets, consider 105–116 gallons to reduce refueling stops. If space in a pickup bed is tight, a 100-gallon model may fit better.
- Material and durability: Plastic tanks (HDPE) are lightweight and corrosion-resistant; steel tanks offer ruggedness and long-term durability in harsh environments. Consider your climate and exposure to UV light when choosing.
- Pump and flow rate: A 10.6 GPM pump speeds up fueling; ensure the electrical system (12V) can support it and that hoses are long enough for your needs (typical hoses range 10–15 feet).
- Filtration and fuel quality: Duplex filters help remove large and fine impurities, protecting engines and equipment. If you store dirty or contaminated fuel, filtration becomes more critical.
- Security and portability: Lockable lids and caps deter theft; consider lid robustness and whether a mounting option is needed for vehicle transport or in a trailer.
- Regulatory considerations: Some tanks may be designated for specific fluids or require DOT compliance. Check local regulations for transport and storage of fuels.
FAQ
- What is the typical recovery time for a 100-gallon tank with a 10 GPM pump? A 10 GPM pump can deliver about 600 gallons per hour, so a 100-gallon fill could take roughly 10 minutes, depending on nozzle and venting efficiency.
- Is a lockable lid important for a diesel tank? Yes, it helps deter theft and incidental opening during transport or storage, especially on job sites.
- Can I use a 100-gallon tank for diesel and another liquid? Many tanks are designed for diesel, gasoline, or other non-flammable liquids. Always verify the manufacturer’s guidance and avoid incompatible fuels.
- What maintenance is required for these tanks? Regularly inspect hoses, fittings, and seals; replace filters as recommended; keep the tank clean and dry to prevent rust or contamination.
- Do these tanks fit in standard pickup beds? Most 100-gallon and 105-gallon rectangular tanks are designed to fit pickup beds or trailer ramps; confirm dimensions before purchase for your vehicle.
- Which tank is best for rough outdoor use? A steel-tanked model like the Dee Zee DZ91753SB offers extra durability against impacts and harsh conditions, while HDPE tanks excel in weight and corrosion resistance.
