Tanks Inc. 5-Bolt Fuel Level Sending Units (Adjustable 6–24")

Accurate fuel-level readings without drama. These SAE 5-bolt senders are built for Tanks Inc. EFI-ready tanks and most aftermarket steel/aluminum tanks using the 5-hole pattern. They cut to length for depths from 6" to 24", work on 6–24 V (positive or negative ground), and use a durable ceramic rheostat for stable gauge response.

✅ Adjustable 6–24" tank depth
✅ SAE 5-bolt pattern
✅ Works on 6–24 V, ± ground
✅ High-quality ceramic board rheostat

Choose Your Ohm Range (Match Your Gauge)

Pick the ohm range that matches your gauge brand or OEM standard. First number is Empty → second number is Full.

Compatibility & Install Notes

Fits Tanks Inc. tanks (and other tanks) with the SAE 5-bolt opening.
Follow the cut-to-length procedure for your tank depth; for 6–15.5" depths remove the lower bracket per instructions.
Match sender ohms to your gauge. If mixing brands or custom clusters, use a gauge interface module to calibrate.
Ground the sender body to chassis cleanly for stable readings.

FAQs

How do I pick the right sender?

Choose the ohm range that matches your gauge (not the tank). GM 1965-up uses 0–90 Ω; many aftermarket gauges are 240–33 Ω; Ford/Mopar early is 73–10 Ω; see the chart above.

Will this work with my 12 V system?

Yes. These senders read resistance to ground and are compatible from 6 to 24 volts, positive or negative ground.

Does this include a pickup tube?

No. These are level senders only. Fuel pickup/return lines are handled by your in-tank module or separate fittings.
