Key Features & Benefits
Marine-Grade HDPE Construction
The tanks are molded from durable, corrosion-resistant HDPE, which prevents fuel degradation, resists saltwater corrosion, and eliminates the risk of rust or static electricity buildup. The seamless blow-molded design ensures zero leaks, even under vibration, impact, or rough sea conditions.
Safety-First Design
- High-Visibility Red Color: The bright red finish ensures the tank is easily identifiable as a fuel container, reducing the risk of accidental misuse.
- Multilingual Warning Labels: Clearly marked with "FLAMMABLE" safety warnings in English and French, including handling precautions to prevent fire hazards.
- Secure Sealing System: Equipped with airtight caps and gaskets to prevent fuel spills and vapor leaks during transport and storage.
User-Friendly Functionality
- Ergonomic Integrated Handle: Built-in carrying handle for easy lifting, transporting, and installation on boats.
- Standard Connector Ports: Designed with dedicated fuel inlet/outlet ports compatible with most outboard motor fuel lines (connector sold separately or as optional accessory).
- Wide Filling Opening: Large, threaded filler neck allows quick, spill-free refueling.
Compact & Versatile Sizing
- 12L Model: Perfect for small boats, kayaks, jet skis, and short trips where space and weight are limited.
- 24L Model: Ideal for larger boats, longer voyages, or as a backup fuel supply for extended outings. Both models feature stackable profiles for easy storage and transport when not in use.
Applications
- Recreational boating (speedboats, fishing boats, pontoons)
- Personal watercraft (jet skis, wave runners)
- Outboard motor-powered vessels
- Marine emergency fuel backup
- Small commercial watercraft operations
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What materials are these marine fuel tanks made of?
Both the 12L and 24L models are constructed from food-grade, UV-stabilized HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene). This material is highly durable, corrosion-resistant, prevents fuel degradation, and eliminates the risk of rust or static electricity buildup.
Q: Are these fuel tanks compatible with my outboard motor?
Yes, the tanks are designed with dedicated fuel inlet/outlet ports that fit most standard outboard motor fuel line connectors. Please note that the connector itself is sold separately or as an optional accessory.
Q: Can these tanks withstand extreme weather and rough sea conditions?
Absolutely. The tanks feature a seamless, one-piece blow-molded construction that ensures zero leaks under vibration or impact. They also have a wide working temperature range of -20°C to +60°C.
Q: How do I choose between the 12L and 24L models?
The 12L model (3.17 US Gallons) is perfect for small boats, kayaks, jet skis, and short trips where space and weight are limited. The 24L model (6.34 US Gallons) is ideal for larger vessels, longer voyages, or as a backup fuel supply.
Q: What safety features are built into these fuel tanks?
The tanks feature a high-visibility safety red color to identify them easily, multilingual warning labels ("FLAMMABLE" in English and French), and a secure sealing system with airtight caps and gaskets to prevent spills and vapor leaks.
