This body type is standard on lead rollback moving floors. Tag moving floors can select this option or the wedge body type.
To achieve maximum cubic capacity our engineers have given the floor a 1-degree drop. This gives you a 240mm drop over a 45′ unit
GLT custom extruded planks. These are ideal for maximum height bodies as they reduce the amount of side wall bulge. Using plank sides gives us the ability to create sides up to 4.3mtrs.
The GLT lower curve is an exclusive extrusion. The side sheet and floor sheet slot into the extrusion before they are hand welded into place.
GLT can remove the lower curve and press the side sheet to meet the floor sheet. This will reduce the tare weight by around 70kg. It also increases the strength of the tubs making it an ideal option for carrying liquid based goods.
Lower sections are formed from 10mm plate which is then joined to 8mm plate midway up the wall. Mill finish plate is used which can be left raw or painted.
Cargo Floors offers a large range of floor plank options from low tare through to heavy duty. Cargo is distributed by Transpec which has a national network of workshops.
Keith offers an extensive range of floor plank options. Keith is base in the USA and has local distribution through Keith Walking Floor Australia Pty Ltd.
Matilda is an Australian designed and made system. One floor plank profile is available which is designed for light weight materials

Strong and flexible. These supports are made from composite material which bend and flex back into place. We bolt the bows into place so they always flex back at the correct angle
This is a popular option for operators wanting a tough alternative to Flexbows. These supports can be spaced at custom intervals
This air-operated tarp solution can be operated from either the trailer via a push/pull switch or truck cabin controlled switches. The bar and centre pelmet is designed to be contamination free.
These bows are mounted into our standard flex bow pocket and bolted. These supports can be spaced at custom intervals
By far our most po[pular option. The tarps rolls up neat and tidy out of the way when loading. When unrolled, the tarp offers a high lvel of cover to protect your load. Compared to the QLD style tarp, the roll over is easier for the operator to use, reducing OH&S risks. Side drop is 300mm standard and can be increased to 600mm.
If you want the most water proof tarp option, tick this option. Tarps come standard with 300mm ling flaps front and rear which are pull down tight to seal the front and rear of the tub. The side drop is standard at 600mm. Thisgives you a bit of extra room to roll over the heaped loads while still getting a tight seal along the side of the tub.
These tarps retract forward to allow loading. the rear part of the tarp has a flap end which is puled down tight to seal the rear of the trailer once loaded. The tarp supports can range ffrom 200mm to 350mm high. Retractable tarps are not waterproof and leaking can occur.

Manual tarps come with stainless steel handles. Sliders and rollbacks come equipped standard with telescopic handles. All other trailers are equipped with fixed length handles as standard with telescopic as an option
GLT Our standard light spacing interval is 1300-1500mm. If you want more light bling, then we can go as close as 300mm between lights. We also offer lights at the top of the side sheets at matching intervals.
Work lights can be fitted to the tailgates, wings on RediTips and within the tubs either up the front near the hoist well or near the rear door.
Choose from either 9, 10, 12 or 14 lights at the top of the tailgate
The rear of the tailgate has the internal support posts exposed. This style door is our lightest door.
This style gives the door a clean finish. There is a weight penalty of around 50-80kgs. The inside of the door is still a flush finish just like the standard tailgate
The fingers and assembly are fabricated from stainless steel. You can choose from either manually operated or air operated. Air-operated 4-finger locks have a single air ram, which provides locking force.

We offer 2 different types of air grain locks. The upright and the horizontal version. both options give exceptional sealing pressure. Air grain locks are synchronized with the air finger locks – all off the one push/pull switch.
Recommend for operators wanting to cart products such as hides. These locks are manually operated and provide excellent sealing pressure. The door plug seals the grain door watertight
This option is suited to tailgates where clearance with the ground or other trailers is an issue. We can do a single or a double split. The split is controlled by a single or twin air ram.
Tailgate pivots from the top only
Tailgate can pivot from either the top or the side. A parrot break and pivot bolt is needed to allow the 2-way system to work.
This door style uses container style locks and stainless-steel hinges. The doors can be fixed open with latches

Built to handle the harsh Australian environment. Rubber can range in thickness and colour.
Choose from a range of colours. our standard brand is Maxus with other brands such as Truckmate. our radius guards are mounted to the chassis by an 8mm thick aluminum bracket, making them very strong and stable.
Dress up your radius guards with chrome dress strips. These look great and finish off the guard area nicely.
If you want the bling look then stainless-steel radius guards are the go. We recommend the ribbed type as they hold up to rougher conditions better.
The simple clean way to finish off the guards on a B trailer. Horse hair added to reduce water spray.
