T1 Industrials are typically buffer shield tanked. In most cases you will be using your low slots for cargo expander modules; so using shield modules that fit in the middle slots is the preferred route.

An example buffer tank fit would include 1x EM (or Kinetic, against Catalyst damage) Ward ~~Ampplifier~~, 1x Thermic Dissipation Amplifier and 2-3x Medium Shield Extenders. One or two Adaptive Invulnerability Fields can also be used, but remember that requires capacitor to run and has to be restarted after every jump. A Damage Control II will also add a lot of buffer, but requires removing an Expanded Cargohold module.

For hauling, passive shield tank skills are key, followed by the ability to use a Damage Control II and Adaptive Invulnerability Field II. After that, armor tanking can be considered, but that takes away cargo space quickly as you burn up low slots with armor plates/hardeners instead of Expanded Cargohold modules. Note that specialized Gallente haulers like the [[Miasmos]], [[Epithal]] or [[Kryos]] are mostly useful for their specialized holds and as such have no use for Expanded Cargohold modules. These ships can, and should, be fitted with tanking or ~~agiliy~~ low slot modules.

These ships can, and should, be fitted with tanking or agility low slot modules.

Visibly active tanking (most notably the Adaptive Invulnerability Field) might discourage ganking by the discriminating ganker, but your capacitor will not allow you o keep them running at all times. Remember turn them in when you align out of a gate and to turn them off once you are in warp. Turning them back on when you land at your destination gate is optional, but having them active as you land at a busy station like a trade hub is recommended.
