All the tank trailers used can steer from the rear to negotiate tight bends. Tank transporters are suitable for any load where the article is high, wide or requires support over its whole length. See the list below for possible combinations.

Bookends allow for the lowest possible load height as the trailer is at each end of the vessel and not underneath it. Vessels that are carried this way must be structurally capable of supporting their own weight and the induced bending moment / shear loading combination of the bookend caused by the cantilever effect.
For large tanks the bookends are normally adapted using 310UC’s or similar as shown below. The bookends can be adapted to all dolly and jinker combinations used by Rex J. Andrews Pty Ltd. A bookend set has two bookends, Rex J. Andrews Pty Ltd. current sets include:
