Stokota aviation semi-trailers | The highest quality and safety
Aviation fuel semi-trailers, also known as low-profile trailers, are specialized vehicles designed for the safe and efficient refueling of aircraft on airport aprons. Their distinctive, lowered shape allows them to drive seamlessly directly under the wings of aircraft, where the fuel fill valves are typically located. The primary function of these vehicles is not only to transport and precisely dispense aviation fuel, but also to continuously filter it and remove water from the system during refueling.

semi-trailer

All our vehicles are certified by the main transport regulatory authorities (TDT, TÜV, Bureau Veritas, Vincotte and many others).
Tank
A low-profile hopper with a visible bend. The dispensing system attached to the hopper can be installed in a cabinet directly behind the tractor or at the rear of the hopper.
Chassis
The number of axles depends on the tank's capacity and can range from 1 to 3 axles for a semi-trailer.
Loading
Aviation semi-trailers are loaded at the airport fuel depot, most often using a bottom-loading system. Filling arms or hoses from the fuel terminal are connected to the dry-break couplings (API) located at the bottom of the semi-trailer.
Aviation fuel
Designed for the transport of JET A-1 and AVGAS fuels. A metered dispensing system for aviation fuels by Sening, Alfons Haar, Satam, and ISOIL.
Unloading
Unloading involves connecting specialized flexible hoses to the aircraft’s fuel inlet, which are then plugged directly into the pressurized refueling port under the aircraft’s wing (the so-called “underwing” system). Fuel flow is driven by a high-capacity pump (powered by a power take-off, or PTO) and precisely controlled by the dispensing system.
Innovations
It is possible to install a platform directly behind the driver's cab or behind the cabinet containing the measurement system. This increases the semi-trailer's operational capabilities. The platform may contain one or two hoses.
