Fuel Bladders?

Post by Buckshot »

I was doing a boat delivery up North recently and we used these fuel bladders.Each on held 750 litres each.Coupled with the 4500 litres on the boats tanks it greatly extended our range.They were packed away after and did not take up much room.
I gots to thinkin how one of these would go in the tray of my ute for the long hauls..Has anyone used them?Do they handle the rough stuff?

Who sells em?

I know nothing of the topic what-so-ever and would be zero use without google.

Our club recieved a brochure from them recently. The water bladders were about $150 special price for 80 litres, I think, they said they did fuel ones, but no price mentioned.

i looked at a water bladder for my truck from a chandlery shop, and they said they are very similar in construction to the fuel cells. The bloke said as long as where you carry them hasn't got sharp edges you should be good.

some things to consider are - sideways slosh and weight transfer while cornering, and having some kind of vent valve when leaving it in the sun for a while

I am think about getting some of these fuel bladders as the long range tanks hang down to far.
