A compact option for jobsite refueling that fits on the back of a truck has been unveiled by Western Global.
The FuelCube FCS119 is a double-walled fuel tank that can fit in a truck bed. Fuel is supplied quickly and easily without the requirement of a hazardous material certification.

Featuring a 119-gallon capacity, the FuelCube Type-S is optimal for 3/4-ton pickups or larger due to the tank’s weight when filled with fuel.
According to Western Global, unlike slip tanks, contractors can easily lift this tank out of the truck using the tank’s four-way forklift pockets, increasing efficiency and use of truck bed space while using the tank as a stationary refueler.

Weatherproof and double-walled 110% containment, the FuelCube Type-S is also stackable (2) high when empty with corner brackets to save space on jobsites.
The company says the double-walled containment reduces the potential of a fuel spill should the tank be damaged.
In addition, to prevent theft issues, the FuelCube Type-S offers a lockable equipment cabinet to protect the pump and feed/return lines. The cabinet shields the pump and hose from the elements, extending the components' life.
“Slip tanks are ubiquitous in the equipment landscape,” Lowe said. “Despite that, they’re difficult to unload and vulnerable to fuel theft. That’s why we’re eager to offer operators a product with more adaptability, mobility, and security to optimize their fueling experience.”
From a maintenance perspective, there is a removable inner tank for routine cleaning, maintenance, and inspection.
