Trail King offers “sneak preview” of steel end dump trailer

March 30, 2015

LOUISVILLE, KY. Trail King offered an advanced look at its new Steel End Dump at the Mid-America Trucking Show last week. The trailer is a project that has been in consideration over the past few years according to the company, and it is now being reintroduced back into the product line.

The new model TKSHR32 Steel End Dump is designed to haul sand, gravel, demolition or rip rap. It  features abrasion-resistant steel, an inverted-angle designed top rail and a high lift tail gate. Improved stability and a maximized footprint are achieved with a lower center of gravity, Trail King noted, and the ability to haul increased payload is a result of the 24” flat floor structural design.  The TKSHR32’s design is not only suited for a wide range of cargo applications, but for each scenario it is designed to allow ease of operation plus superior loading and unloading through the dump cycle.  

“Our customers heavily rely on Trail King’s expert engineering knowledge and capabilities, as well as manufacturing’s careful analysis to provide premium performance and innovative operating efficiencies in all aspects of the business,” said Rick Farris, Trail King vice president of sales and marketing. “Trail King’s new Steel End Dump will offer the market a product with a low cost of maintenance and premium resale value.”

The Steel End Dump is expected to go into production in the near future.”  [30]
