PACCAR Parts Offers All-Makes OEM-Quality Replacement Fuel Tanks for Heavy-Duty Trucks
RENTON, Wash., March 17, 2009 — PACCAR Parts recently introduced ACRAFIT(R) all-makes fuel tanks that offer heavy-duty truck operators and truck fleets a cost-effective alternative to repairing or replacing damaged fuel tanks.
ACRAFIT fuel tanks are available in multiple sizes of 50 to 150 gallons and a variety of diameters: 23-inch, 24.5-inch, 25-inch and 26-inch, to fit all major OEM applications.
ACRAFIT fuel tanks are manufactured by an ISO-certified manufacturer using the same thickness and grade of aluminum as OEM manufacturing standards. The fuel tanks are treated with an acid etch that provides a consistent, uniform finish and have been drop tested to the same rigorous standards as OEM fuel tanks to ensure their structural integrity. They’re available with filler necks in the right, left and center locations to offer a wide variety of options for different fits and functions.
“ACRAFIT fuel tanks are manufactured using robotic processes to ensure they consistently exceed performance standards,” said Jeff Sass, general marketing manager for PACCAR Parts, which distributes the all-make fuel tanks exclusively through Kenworth and Peterbilt dealers in the United States and Canada.
Each ACRAFIT fuel tank is backed by a 24-month warranty, supported by a large network of Kenworth and Peterbilt dealers in the United States and Canada.
“Truck operators and fleets concerned about the quality and durability of repairs or replacements completed by repair or body shops, particularly those involving insurance claims, can feel confident requesting ACRAFIT replacement fuel tanks,” Sass said.
