Zambian Customer Orders 3 Units Tongya 3 Axle Oil Tanker Trailer

Tongya 3 Axle Oil Tanker Trailer

Recently, Tongya Auto signed a formal purchase contract with a reputable cross-border fuel logistics company in Zambia, who ordered 3 units of 3 Axle Oil Tanker Trailer to upgrade their regional transport fleet. This is the second bulk order from this customer in 2026, following their successful purchase of 2 units of Tongya fuel tankers last year. All technical discussions, price negotiations and contract signing were completed remotely via WhatsApp and video calls, fully demonstrating the high recognition of Tongya’s product quality and professional service in the Southern African market.

Our 3 Axle Oil Tanker Trailer is a best-selling model specifically optimized for Southern African countries like Zambia, Zimbabwe and Botswana. Zambia has a vast territory with most fuel transport routes spanning hundreds of kilometers, and over 70% of the roads are unpaved gravel roads that become extremely bumpy during the dry season and muddy in the rainy season. To address these challenges, our 3 axle oil tanker adopts a reinforced heavy-duty chassis and multi-leaf spring suspension system, which can effectively absorb road shocks and maintain stable driving even under full load conditions on rough terrain. The 3-axle configuration provides excellent load distribution, complying with Zambia’s strict road weight limits while maximizing payload capacity.

The tank body is constructed from 5mm thick Q345B high-strength carbon steel using advanced robotic automatic welding technology, ensuring superior structural integrity and zero leakage performance. Multiple reinforced anti-wave baffles are installed inside the tank at 1.5-meter intervals, which effectively suppress liquid surge during acceleration, braking and sharp turns, significantly reducing the risk of rollover accidents on Zambia’s winding mountain roads. The entire trailer is coated with three layers of high-performance anti-corrosion paint, providing excellent protection against the intense ultraviolet radiation and occasional acid rain in Zambia, extending the service life of the tanker by 4-5 years compared to ordinary products.

Equipped with European standard safety accessories including emergency cut-off valves, pressure relief valves, electrostatic grounding devices and fire extinguishers, all configurations strictly comply with SADC (Southern African Development Community) fuel transportation safety regulations. The trailer also features a high-flow unloading system that can complete the unloading of 45,000 liters of oil in less than 30 minutes, greatly improving operational efficiency for our customers.

The customer shared their positive feedback during the order confirmation: “We have been operating fuel transport business between Zambia and neighboring countries for over 18 years and have used many different brands of tankers. Tongya’s 3 Axle Oil Tanker Trailer has proven to be the most reliable and cost-effective option for our operations. The first 2 units we purchased last year have run over 120,000 kilometers without any major breakdowns, even though they operate daily on some of the worst roads in Southern Africa. The maintenance cost is only 30% of what we used to pay for other brands, and the after-sales support is always prompt and professional. That’s why we didn’t hesitate to order 3 more units this time to expand our fleet.”

Before delivery, all 3 units passed a rigorous 12-point quality inspection, including tank pressure test, sealing test, brake system test and full-load stability test. We have completed all export customs clearance documents and commodity inspection procedures, and will arrange shipping to Dar es Salaam Port for transshipment to Lusaka, Zambia. Our professional after-sales team will track the entire transportation process and provide 24/7 remote technical support to ensure the smooth operation of the tankers after arrival.
