Carbon steel tank trucks are known for their strength and durability in transporting various liquids and gases. Carbon steel, with its high tensile strength, provides a robust structure for the tank. These trucks are commonly used for transporting non - corrosive or mildly corrosive substances, as carbon steel may be prone to rust and corrosion over time when exposed to certain chemicals. However, with proper coating and lining, carbon steel tank trucks can expand their application range. They are cost - effective and suitable for industries like fuel distribution, where the transported substances do not require highly specialized corrosion - resistant materials, offering a reliable and economical transportation solution.
