RENTON, Wash., Aug. 10, 2010 — PACCAR Parts recently introduced TRP(R) all-makes fuel tanks offering heavy-duty truck operators and truck fleets a cost-effective alternative to repairing aged or damaged fuel tanks.
 
TRP fuel tanks are available in various capacities of 50 to 150 gallons and a variety of diameters: 23-inch, 24.5-inch, 25-inch and 26-inch. They fit all major OEM applications, including trucks made by Freightliner, International, Mack, Sterling, Volvo and Western Star, as well as Kenworth and Peterbilt.
 
“Our tanks are made by an ISO-certified manufacturer that uses the same standard of thickness and grade of aluminum called for in OEM manufacturing,” said Everett Seymoure, global director for TRP. “TRP fuel tanks are manufactured using robotic processes to ensure they consistently exceed performance standards. The fuel tanks are also treated with an acid etch that provides a consistent, uniform finish.”

TRP fuel tanks have been drop tested to the same rigorous standards as OEM fuel tanks to ensure their structural integrity. They’re available with filler necks in the right, left and center locations to offer a wide variety of options for different fits and functions.

TRP fuel tanks are available through authorized Kenworth and Peterbilt parts and service distributors throughout North America. They are also backed by a 24-month warranty, supported by the large network of authorized TRP parts and service distributors.

“Truck operators and fleets concerned about the quality and durability of repairs or replacements can feel confident choosing TRP fuel tanks as the smart replacement alternative to aged or damaged tanks,” Seymoure said.
