This 2140 Litre Twin Axle Highway Bowser is built to meet the demands of heavy industry and farming where mobility, stability, and compliance are critical. Fully certified for use on EU highways, it features a galvanised steel chassis with a twin axle layout — offering better weight distribution, reduced strain on each tyre, and improved control, particularly when towing over longer distances or uneven surfaces.
At its core is a polyethylene inner tank housed within a heavy-duty steel bund. The bund contains 110% of the tank’s capacity to ensure safe containment of spills and full environmental compliance. The lockable stainless steel rear door, fork channels, and lifting points make it easy to manoeuvre and handle.
It comes pre-fitted with a K2 hand pump, strainer, 15’ hose, and nozzle, so you’re ready to dispense fuel immediately. Optional electric or petrol pump upgrades are also available for faster and more convenient dispensing.
Why Choose a Highway Bowser (vs Site)?
A highway bowser is legally required if you need to tow diesel on public roads. It comes equipped with brakes, road lights, reflectors, and a compliant hitch, making it suitable for road-to-site refuelling operations. Compared to a site-only version, it may cost more upfront, but it delivers peace of mind, safety, and full legal compliance. Need a more budget-friendly option? See our Site Tow Diesel Bowser.
