40 CBM Bulk Cement Tank Trailer
40 CBM V-shape bulk cement tanker built for clean pneumatic discharge
The 40 CBM Bulk Cement Tank Trailer is a large semi-trailer specially designed for the transportation of bulk cement. It has multiple advantages such as large capacity, lightweight, high strength, and efficient unloading, and is very suitable for cement plants, construction sites, and logistics transportation enterprises. This model adopts a classic V-shaped tank structure with a total volume of 40 cubic meters, reserving an additional 5% gas-phase space. This effectively prevents the sedimentation and clogging of cement during transportation and ensures the smoothness of pneumatic unloading.

Built at SINOHENG Trailer Factory, Jinan, Shandong, China. Exported to 30+ countries across Southeast Asia, Africa, the Middle East and South America.
Operators This Trailer Is Built Around
- Cement plants and ready-mix suppliers delivering bulk powder to batching plants
- Bulk logistics operators running dedicated powder fleets on regional routes
Problems It Solves
Powder settles and blocks discharge
A classic V-shaped tank with 5% extra gas-phase space above the load prevents sedimentation and keeps pneumatic unloading flowing.
Heavy tanks eat the payload allowance
40,000 kg payload against approximately 7,300 kg tare, for a G.V.W.R. of about 47,300 kg.
What You Get For the Money
40,000 L plus 5% vapour space
10,200 × 2,550 × 3,950 mm, with the kingpin 1,300 mm from the front bolster face.
0.2 MPa working pressure
Discharge pressure specified for bulk cement rather than borrowed from a liquid tanker design.
Proven running gear
Three FUWA 13-ton axles, 6,930 + 1,310 + 1,310 mm spacing, T30/30 spring brakes and twelve Linglong 12R22.5 tyres.
Technical Description
Technical Construction
The overall structure of the vehicle is reasonable. It not only has a large loading capacity but also significantly improves the efficiency of single-trip transportation, helping users significantly reduce unit transportation costs. The tank head is made of Q345 high-strength steel with a thickness of 4mm. The tank shell is made of 3 mm-thick T700 special steel. The welding process of the entire vehicle complies with national quality standards. The working pressure of the tank reaches 0.2MPa, and the test pressure is 0.3MPa. With a reasonable structural design and high-quality materials, the vehicle weighs only about 7.3 tons, can carry up to 40 tons of cement, and has a total mass of 47.3 tons, achieving true lightweight, high-strength, and efficient transportation.

This Build in the Factory
How It Compares
Against our 60 CBM powder tanker, this 40 CBM unit is shorter, lighter and easier to manoeuvre inside batching plants; the larger tank suits long line-haul where axle limits allow the extra volume.
Operating Notes
- Vent the tank fully before opening any manhole.
- Keep the air filter clean, a blocked filter shows up as slow discharge.
- Wash out and dry the tank before changing to a different powder.
Every vehicle ships with an illustrated operation manual covering coupling, braking and turning technique.

How long does discharge take?
Discharge time depends on your compressor, hose run and the powder itself, so we do not quote a fixed figure. Tell us the compressor you use and the delivery height at the batching plant and we will confirm the pipework arrangement.
Can this tanker carry flour or fly ash?
The V-shape body handles dry powders generally, but valve and filter specification differs for food grade products. Tell us the powder before ordering; for flour we normally quote the 45 CBM V-shape powder tanker.
What kingpin is fitted?
A 90# prefabricated kingpin is standard on this model.
Do you ship to my country?
SINOHENG exports in bulk to 30+ countries and regions across Southeast Asia, Africa, the Middle East and South America. Send your destination port with the enquiry and we will quote delivery with the trailer.
Ask for a Drawing Before You Commit
We confirm dimensions, axle loads and coupling height on an approval drawing before any steel is cut, so the trailer is legal and couples to your tractors.
