Used Construction Tanks: Fuel & Hydraulic for Construction Equipment

On a job site, a disabled hydraulic excavator or loader can be costly. Choosing a used construction tank allows you to get your machine back in operation quickly, at a much lower cost compared to new parts.

Modern fuel tanks are made from high-density polyethylene: lighter than steel, corrosion-resistant, and suitable for the tough conditions of earthmoving. Hydraulic tanks are designed in steel or aluminum to ensure total sealing and regulate oil temperature.

These parts apply to a wide range of equipment used by BTP professionals:

• Crawler Excavators and mini excavators
• Loaders and backhoe loaders
• Telehandlers and articulated dump trucks

Codimatra’s stock is regularly replenished through dismantling of construction machines, ensuring references suited to many market models.

Fuel and Hydraulic Tanks for Construction Machinery

• A cracked or corroded fuel tank on a Caterpillar excavator can bring an entire construction project to a halt within hours.
• The hydraulic tank stores oil under pressure and cools the fluid to protect sensitive components.
• Used parts from dismantled equipment are thoroughly checked: drain plug, sealing, and overall condition are verified before sale.
• Compatible fuel tanks also cover John Deere telehandlers and machines adapted to all terrains.
• Some parts come from machine fleet auctions, offering rare references that are hard to find elsewhere.
• The hydraulic tank capacity must exactly match manufacturer specifications to prevent circuit overheating.
• Codimatra ships tanks worldwide, including for landscaping projects.

Fuel Tanks for Earthmoving Equipment

On earthmoving equipment, the fuel tank integrates several specific elements: level gauge, bottom strainer, filler cap, and drain plug. The failure of any one of these components can immobilize the machine on site.

High-capacity bulldozers and crawler excavators often have tanks exceeding 400 liters. This sizing ensures sufficient autonomy for full working days without intermediate refueling.

At Codimatra, used fuel tanks cover both used vehicles intended for earthmoving and lifting machines such as mobile cranes. Each part is inspected to detect any signs of cracks or internal oxidation before shipment.

Hydraulic Tanks for Public Works Equipment

• Internal corrosion of a steel hydraulic tank causes metallic particles contaminating the entire circuit.
• On a Komatsu or Liebherr excavator, the hydraulic tank continuously withstands extreme pressures and temperatures.
• A used hydraulic tank in good condition costs up to 60% less than an equivalent new part.
• Hydraulic oil levels must remain stable: even a minor leak often indicates a tank needing prompt replacement.
• Models available at Codimatra include brands like JCB, Caterpillar, Komatsu, and Furukawa.
• The catalog is updated daily to reflect new parts from dismantling.
• Verifying the manufacturer reference before ordering ensures perfect compatibility with your construction machine.
