Today is 8th, December, 2023.
As we all know, cement tankers had a wide range of applications on construction projects, and they are expert on deliveries of cement, fly ash, powder lime, etc.
Due to the rapid development of cement transportation, cement bulk tanker manufacturers have designed a wide variety of loading capacities, which can perfectly handle our transportation problems.
Today we are here to discuss the common volume of cement tanker trailers and the corresponding specifications, hoping to help you choose the satisfactory products.

Cement Bulk Tank Trailer capacity
Ok, first thing’s first. The cement bulk tanker trailer capacity is from 25t to 120t. But usually, tankers of 30 tons to 60 tons are popular among the fleet. This is determined by multiple factors. First, bulk cement tanker trailers of 30-60 tons are cheaper, which is friendly to customers who are tight on budget. Second, medium sized tanker trailers are easier to maintain, and they usually will serve longer if maintain properly, and this is a key feature that will greatly help you save the operating costs.

But large capacity has its own pros. A big rig, as its name says, has larger space. In this way you can carry more goods in a single trip, or evern, you can separate the space into multiple compartments ( can be cusomized in Panda Mech), which allows you to unloading in different places for a one-way trip. Therefore, if you need have large-scale projects, like building a dam, a bridges, skyscrapers….Or you have more than one plant, buy a cement tanker with large capacity can save you more instead.
Cement Bulk Tank Trailer height
Usually, the cement bulker trailer is 3.5m to 3.95m high (11-13ft). You can see the number changes little, because the cement tanker’s capacity is realized by length rather than height. When designing a cement bulker, Panda considers height limit as a vital part. Generally speaking, the road limit is 4.25-4.5m (different places have different rules). So in order to allow you pass through, we won’t build higher types. Panda is always a troubleshooter, not a troublemaker, isn’t it?
By the way, the vertical transportation height of the Panda cement bulker trailer is over 30m.
Factors that determine loading capacity and height
Same as the height limit we have mentioned above, there is also weight limit in some regions. So please be sure to know the local transportation regulations before placing an order, or the overweight can bring to you risks fines and penalties.

Another factor we may easily forget is the density of cement. Usually, Portland cement’s density is 1,100 to 1,500 kg per cubic meter. However, if your bulk cement is of higher density, more weight capacity is needed. In this way we suggest you to customized your cement bulker, which is more cost-saving.
Cement Bulk Trailer length and width
Depending on the loading capacity or special requirements by customers, the tank length usually ranges from 7,500mm to 14,500m. And the width is 2500mm (8ft), which is fixed all the time.
Here is the chart to explain the relation between loading capacity and length:
30 Ton cement trailer length: 7500mm, 25 feet.
40 Ton cement bulker truck length: 8500mm, 28 foot.
48 Ton cement tanker trailer length: 9000mm, 30′;
50 Ton cement bulk trailer length: 10000mm, 33 foot.
60 Ton cement semi trailer length: 11000mm, 36 foot.
85 Ton cement transport trailer length: 12500 mm, 41 feet.
120 Ton cement bulk trailer length: 14000mm, 46 feet.
