The origin of tank lorries

How many of you know that in the 1880’s, people were using horses to draw tank wagons? It could carry about 900 gallons of tank by three horses. Nowadays, when it comes to a tank lorry, we instantly imagine that it has a tank body.
Before I introduce our new stocks, let me explain a little about tank lorries.

 

In the 1905, Anglo American which is one of an oil companies in England has started to transport petroleum by a tank lorry. This tank lorry was manufactured by Thornycroft in England. That is the beginning of a tank lorry.

This picture is the first Japanese tank lorry manufactured by Inutsuka Manufacturing Co. Ltd. They have changed the shape of fuel tank from column to oblong. Therefore, loading efficiency has improved. Also, Inutsuka Manufacturing was the first transporter of cement by a tank lorry in Japan.

 

There are also some different kinds of tank lorry. Tank lorry carries the liquefied loads, dry bulk cargo or gases on roads. And the tank structure is different from what it carries. So, when you are looking for the Tank lorry, you must know there are different types of tanks and you have to choose the most suitable one for your cargo.

 

 If you want to drive tank lorries in Japan, you must have three licenses which are Driver’s License for Heavy Rigid, Driver’s License for towed trailer and hazardous materials officer's license. There are several levels of hazardous materials officer's license. It is difficult to pass the hardest level test but you can earn more money if you have it with its expertise.
