The QT trailers are suitable for hauling Anhydrous Ammonia if it has been inhibited by the addition of water (0.2% by weight). The shipping papers must show the words “0.2 PERCENT WATER”. Other types of ammonia (uninhibited, refrigeration grade, metallurgical grade, etc.) cannot be hauled in these trailers.
