The tandem axle tank chassis is the workhorse of the industry. Often referred to as a “closed tandem” drop-frame chassis, it is built for dependable, everyday tank transport. It features low-profile steel-belted radial tires and a low deck height of approximately 42 inches, providing 18 inches of ground clearance for improved stability and ease of loading.
With two axles positioned one directly behind the other, the tandem configuration distributes weight across additional tires while maintaining excellent stability at highway speeds. This design offers ample payload capacity for most general tank hauling applications, making it a reliable and cost-effective solution for day-to-day operations.
