This page gathers the Fuel Proof trailers that the register could not assign to a named series. Fuel Proof is a British manufacturer of mobile fuel-tank trailers based in Lancashire; the type designations FPT181, FPT202 and FPT352 combine the model series with a multi-digit number. As a collection page, it gathers models that fall outside the series maintained separately in the register.

The register lists 6 versions here with kerb weights from 350 to 1,400 kg, gross vehicle weights from 1,800 to 3,500 kg, lengths from 3,390 to 4,460 mm and widths from 1,760 to 1,810 mm.

With a consistently narrow width of around 1.8 metres and gross weights up to 3.5 tonnes, these trailers are designed for towing behind ordinary vehicles and serve the mobile refuelling of construction machinery, farm equipment and fleets away from fixed filling stations.

When buying one of these tank trailers used, check above all the tightness of the tank and lines, the corrosion protection of the tank and frame, the dispensing unit with its pump, meter and earthing cable, and the overrun brake and tyres. Inspections under the relevant regulations for storing and transporting fuel are essential before taking over the trailer, and parts for the dispensing unit are usually supplied by the manufacturer itself. The registration papers and the validity of the roadworthiness inspection are also worth checking before purchase.
