  • Publication number: 20140305936
    Abstract: The invention relates to a fuel tank for a motor vehicle, which is made up of two shells which are complementary to one another, wherein the shells are supported against one another by at least one strut penetrating the tank (1), connecting opposing wall regions of the tank. The strut is configured as a two-part hollow strut (4), wherein the parts of the hollow strut are latched together via a plug connection and the latching connection is secured by at least one closure body (12) at least partially filling up the cross section of the hollow strut (4) at least level with the latching connection.
