Original Press Release:
New Rear-Dump from Titan Maximizes Capacity for "Road-Friendly" Ontario and Quebec
Delhi, ON: Titan Trailers Inc. has introduced a new all-aluminum rear-dump trailer that provides load capacities of up to 78 cubic yards while remaining in compliance with the new harmonized codes for "road-friendly" limits for the Canadian Provinces of Ontario and Quebec.
Designed with Titan's original THINWALL(TM) extruded aluminum sidewall panel, the new Titan rear-dump was custom-built for Mitchel Transport of St. Thomas, Ontario. Titan originated the smooth-side all-aluminum trailer body when the company developed and patented the THINWALL panel process in 1999. The THINWALL panel now sets an industry standard for live-floor and tipper trailers in many bulk-hauling markets. The tri-axle THINWALL dump design offers lower operating costs, excellent backhaul versatility and maximum durability for truckers hauling bulk grain and aggregate. With its self-steering forward lift axle, the multi-axle configuration meets harmonized requirements for hauling within certain areas of Canada.
At 45-feet long with a clear 98.5" interior width from side-to-side, the THINWALL dump handles loads of more than 78 cubic yards with ample strength for heavy materials. Also featuring a THINWALL aluminum floor, the Titan dump body combines outstanding strength and light weight with smooth inside walls for clean, quick unloading. With no posts for loads to hang up on, the Titan semi-dump requires less clean-up and maintenance and provides more resistance to corrosion.
The hollow-core aluminum floor also lowers the trailer's centre of gravity, providing greater stability on the road and reduces the risk of tipping when dumping. This is especially critical when unloading in uneven fields and yards.
The smooth underside also minimizes ice build-up on winter roads for improved durability and fuel economy.
