Universal truck fuel tanks are adaptable reservoirs engineered to work with almost any heavy goods vehicle.
They are built for broad compatibility across the HGV spectrum, with undrilled mounting brackets providing a blank-slate approach for drilling and fitting the tank to suit your particular rig, whether it’s a Mercedes powerhouse or a nimble Iveco.
Fitting the bill for every brand
These tanks don’t discriminate. They’re equally at home on:
- Mercedes

Aluminium: The material of choice
Why aluminium? It’s light, tough, and doesn’t rust.
These tanks are built to take a beating without weighing you down. Aluminium shrugs off road grime and weather, keeping fuel safe and payload light.
Size matters
Universal truck fuel tanks come in various sizes, but let’s look at the typical dimensions of a 175-litre model:
- Width: 1000mm
- Height: 400mm
- Depth: 480mm
These dimensions hit the sweet spot for many trucks—not too big, not too small—just right for keeping you on the road longer between fill-ups.
Why go universal?
A universal replacement might be just the ticket if sourcing an OEM tank is difficult.
There’s no need to hunt down a specific make and model. These tanks are the ultimate Plan B – ready to step in when your original tank quits.
Measure the existing space for the fuel tank on your truck and note down the width, depth, and height. Then, take those measurements shopping. Ensure the capacity is what you need – you can uprate it if you need more miles.
The fitting process
Fitting a universal tank requires some DIY. But don’t sweat it—this design quirk is what makes these tanks so adaptable.
A few well-placed holes lined up with your rig’s mounting areas, and you’re in business (bolt the tank and connect it up).
