Elliptical bodies offer some unique advantages over the traditional square dump bodies, depending on your application. Elliptical bodies offer radius sides so material or odd-shaped items "self-center" in the box. This allows the material to flow out easier. The body design incorporates strength without the need for additional supports and provides an open area for side pre-wet kits. It also weighs less than a traditional square body.
• Materials flow out easier, no square corners to stick into
• Odd shaped or Large materials self center - tumble to the middle of the body
• Large radius is strong with corrugations every 2”
• Exterior is easier to wash and keep clean - no additional supports
• Body weighs less than comparable Traditional Square body
• Side Pre-Wet tanks can be utilized for balanced application
