Additional Information
Loading
Faster, More Efficient Loading is the goal. An example whould be a 40 ton capacity haul truck that is being loaded with 4 passes. With a tailgate extending the truck bed length to 17' 5" the loader size can be increased from 7 yards to 12.5 yards, allowing one less pass plus more load while containing the load within the bed.
Rear End Spillage
Half of the time spent on haul roads is for cleaning; the other half is maintaining - so cut your time in half and save by keeping the load in the body with tailgates.
Tire Costs
The hours in a Manufacturers Performance Book show expected tire life of 10,000 hours. Where cleaner haul roads are present, hours jump to 12,000, or a 40% increase in tire life. What type of tire life are you achieving? Is it less than 12,000 hours? Less than 10,000 hours? What have you tried to decrease tire damage and increase tire life? Tailgates help!
