The FuelCube Type-S propels Western Global into a new sector, said Jeff Lowe, Vice President of Product Marketing at Western Global. Operations have been using traditional slip tanks to refuel smaller diesel equipment fleets without the need for hazardous materials placarding, but they’re looking for a more secure, user-friendly option. We are excited to expand our FuelCube line to offer an optimal solution for this market.
The FuelCube Type-S features a 119-gallon capacity and is optimal for 3/4-ton pickups or larger due to the tank’s weight when filled with fuel. Unlike slip tanks, which are often difficult to remove, contractors can easily lift this tank out of the truck using the tank’s four-way forklift pockets. This increases contractors’ efficiency as they can use valuable truck bed space while using the tank as a stationary refueler to keep the operation rolling. Corner brackets make the tank stackable when empty to save space on the jobsite when removed from the truck.
Western Global designed the FuelCube Type-S with durability in mind, featuring built-in, weatherproof, 110 percent double-walled containment that eliminates the need for pans or basins. This significantly reduces the potential of an operation-halting fuel spill should the tank become damaged. While slip tanks are prone to fuel theft, the FuelCube Type-S offers heightened security with a lockable equipment cabinet to protect the pump and feed/return lines. The equipment cabinet also promotes longer pump and hose life by shielding the components from the elements.
