About Titan Fuel Tanks
The Birth of TITAN Fuel Tanks
- Titan Fuel Tanks launched in 2003 to answer the frustration experienced by diesel truck owners, who, buying the latest and greatest diesel trucks found themselves spending too much time searching for the next diesel stop–and limited as to destination. For those towing trailers or traveling long distances, this meant frequent stops and buying fuel from the closest and oft-times high-dollar stations.
Titan´s Mission
- To offer the customers the finest and most practical solutions for extending the range and economic viability of their vehicles
- To manufacture innovative products for diesel pickup trucks that help drivers feel more secure and safer on the open road or off-road
- To provide the customers with unparalleled “world-class” service and support
Searching for the Ideal Fuel Tank
From the start, the developers of Titan Fuel Tanks wanted a lightweight tank that would fit perfectly and, at the least, double the vehicle’s fuel range – without taking up valuable cargo space in the bed, interfering with hitches or accessories, and without detracting from the vehicle’s beauty. The first Titan Fuel Tanks were made of standard Linear Polyethylene similar to the original equipment tanks they would replace. Despite the fact that these early tanks were difficult to install and required a high degree of expertise as well as vehicle modifications (cutting and welding), customers came from far and wide to buy them.
The Titan Tank – Double Fuel Capacity and Superior Impact Resistance
Two years later, when a chemical engineer suggested High-Density Cross-Linked Polyethylene (XLHDPE), the folks at Titan jumped right on it. A space-age material that bonds on the molecular level, XLHDPE is chemical resistant and extremely durable. It made the Titan Tank nearly indestructible, doubled fuel capacity, and extended vehicle range. It also made Titan’s 5-year limited warranty possible.
New Gen 5 Tanks
In 2007, Titan introduced its Gen 5 Tanks with design modifications greatly easing installation and improving long-term performance. The lightweight tank (about 45 lbs. without hardware) can be easily maneuvered so a “driveway mechanic” can install it in 2-4 hours, depending on expertise.
Larger Capacity Tanks
In 2008, Titan expanded to a state-of-the-art facility, investing extensively in precision tooling and taking advantage of another opportunity to improve product design. This led to Titan’s latest “Super Series” line, which includes larger capacity tanks and further design innovations.
