Fuel It Box Hose Kit - Generator Suction & Return
A complete generator-ready package with suction spear, return fittings, foot valve, and ISO quick-release couplers for fast, tool-free connection. Provides stable, clean fuel flow for continuous-run generators, making it ideal for civil sites, irrigation pumps, backup systems and remote power applications.
Forklift Pockets
Integrated forklift pockets and lifting lugs allow safe, balanced movement of the tank when full or empty.
Speeds up site relocation while maintaining stability and compliance with workplace handling standards.
Low-Profile Tank for Optimised Generator Suction
The BOX tank’s low-profile design reduces vertical lift on the suction line, meaning the generator’s fuel pump works with less head-pressure resistance. This improves priming, stabilises fuel draw and reduces the risk of air ingress during long-run operation. Ideal for generators that rely on consistent suction and return flow, especially in civil, agricultural and remote-site setups.
Lockable Fill Hatch With Weatherproof Hose Ports
A secure, lockable top hatch allows safe filling of the tank while keeping the dispensing setup connected. Side-mounted weatherproof ports let hoses remain in place without exposing the interior to dust or rain, improving security, protecting fuel quality and keeping your system operational in all conditions.
Powering Work, Fuelling Progress
Keeping equipment fuelled up shouldn’t slow your business down.
