Genuine Paddock brand, available in 100L, 200L, 400L and 1,000L volumes these tanks are ideal for mounting in the back of your utility or trailer to cart diesel. Perfect for refueling on farms, in remote areas or even on job and construction sites.

- Thicker tank walls as a result of more raw materials used in the moulding process
- Quality raw materials offer ultimate UV resistance
- Tough poly construction eliminates seams, welds, cracking and corrosion
- Quality 12v self priming transfer pumps with high transfer rates
- Simple and effective tie down locations
- Forklift tine recesses on some models

Each tank comes with an integrated diesel transfer pump which is housed under a protecting and lockable top folding cover. The pumps are mounted with a top entry suction line into the tank and a 4m discharge hose with automatic fuel nozzle. This setup is very simple and tidy and makes using a breeze. Connect the included alligator clips to a 12v battery and you're ready to transfer diesel from the tank to your machine, boat or vehicle.

The Paddock Difference
High Flow Pumps and Quality Components
Both the 200L, 400L, 480L and 1,000L model feature larger high flow 56L/min diesel transfer pumps whilst the 100L model has a heavy duty 40 L/min pump. All pumps are commercial quality and are capable of pumping for extended periods without overheating in 50C ambient conditions. Compare these pumps to other brands and you'll quickly notice the difference, the motors are massive and oversized. During testing the 56L/min pumps are run continuously for 72hrs which far exceeds the real world applications ensuring they are extra heavy duty and long lasting.
Each unit features an automatic cut off nozzle with a integrated swivel fitting. This combination means hose twist is eliminated and you will never overflow the tank you're filling. Similar to your standard diesel browser, when the tank is full, the nozzle will automatically shut off flow.
Each pump includes a internal bypass valve which means it can be run with the automatic discharge nozzle closed for short periods. This is important and is not always seen on lower quality pumps and having this bypass ensures the pump does not overload and overheat prior to turning the pump off, ultimately ensuring a longer operating life.
Roto Moulded Tanks
These tanks are rotomolded from high quality UV stabilised plastics to deliver a seamless and virtually leak proof diesel storage solution. When designing plastic tanks many companies cut corners and leave out the expensive ingredients which make the plastic resistant to UV attack. The Paddock tanks have UV blockers and carbon black additives which give a high UV resistance. These tanks also use more raw material to deliver thicker walls and more strength and resistance to wear and tear and whilst this makes the tanks a little heavier, it's well worth it for the benefits.
The 200L, 400L and 1,000L size tanks have moulded in recesses for forklift tines making relocation and loading of these tanks simple.
