More payload

Metso’s unique, lightweight haul truck model with rubber lining is a combination of high-strength steel and wear resistant rubber.

The energy-absorbing characteristics of the rubber allow for the construction of a lighter and optimized truck body. This leads to higher payload, reduced maintenance and consequently, lower operating expenses (OPEX).

Improved sustainability

The fact that our truck bodies are lightweight and individually designed to maximize payload, means a lower fuel consumption and reduced CO2 emissions per hauled ton. 

The benefits add up during return rounds when the truck is empty – it simply takes less fuel to move a lighter body.

Less maintenance

Metso’s rubber lining lasts up to 300% longer than traditional lining. It protects the chassis of the truck and the body itself from wear, prolongs the life of the truck and drastically reduces the need for maintenance. The modular design of the lining means that only worn parts need to be replaced.

We also offer “lifetime limited” truck bodies where the maintenance need is kept to an absolute minimum. No matter your needs, our wide offer allows us to customize a low-maintenance solution that maximizes your payload capacity.

The rubber lining in Metso Truck Body lasts longer ning in Metso Truck Body lasts up to 6 times longer than conventional steel lining, drastically reducing the need for maintenance.
Metso Truck Body's customized lining prevents carry-back
No carry-back

The Metso Truck Body can be tailored to suit all applications and our flexible lining option can prevent sticky material from building up.

With no carry-back, the entire capacity of the truck can be fully utilized to haul payload, which further improves operational efficiency.

Better working environment

When lining one of our lightweight truck body models (designed to fit both Komatsu and CAT trucks) with rubber elements, the result is hard to match. The rubber absorbs impact and some of the proven benefits are:

  • Up to a 50% or greater reduction of noise.
  • Averaging a 10–15 decibel noise decrease.
  • Up to 97% less vibrations.

Less noise and vibration mean better and safer work conditions, which in return can make a big difference in your productivity.

Metso Truck Body is an investment in the well-being of your staff.
