Freightliner FLC112 Air Tanks, Wraps & Mounting

Frequently Asked Questions About Freightliner FLC112 Air Tanks, Wraps & Mounting

Will these air tanks and mounting components fit my Freightliner FLC112 without modification?

Products in this category are designed to match the factory air tank sizing, shape, and mounting configuration used on the Freightliner FLC112. However, mounting locations and tank setups can vary slightly by model year and chassis configuration, so it's a good idea to compare the dimensions and bolt pattern of your existing tank or bracket before ordering to confirm a proper fit.

What materials are these air tank wraps and mounting brackets made from?

Air tank wraps are typically offered in stainless steel for durability and corrosion resistance, while mounting brackets and straps are commonly made from steel or aluminum depending on the specific product. Stainless steel wraps also help protect the tank surface from road debris and moisture over time.

Are these parts a direct replacement for the original equipment air tanks and hardware?

Most air tanks, wraps, and mounting hardware in this category are built to replace factory components and follow OEM-style dimensions and hole spacing. That said, always check the fit specifications listed on each product page, since aftermarket parts can have minor variations compared to the original Freightliner part.

Do these air tank wraps affect the tank's air pressure rating or function?

No, air tank wraps are cosmetic and protective covers installed over the exterior of the tank. They do not alter the internal air pressure capacity or function of the tank itself. Their main purpose is to improve appearance and add a layer of protection against corrosion and physical damage.

What tools or steps are typically needed to install a new air tank or mounting bracket?

Installation generally involves disconnecting the air lines from the old tank, removing the mounting straps or brackets, and transferring or replacing hardware as needed. Basic hand tools such as wrenches and sockets are usually sufficient. Since air tanks are part of the truck's brake system, we recommend having the installation and air line reconnections checked by a qualified technician to ensure everything is properly sealed and functioning before the truck is put back into service.
