Introduction of dump truck bodies
Dump truck is an important transportation equipment in mineral transportation, construction, oil field and other fields. It can be used to transport and load stone, brick, ore, coal, steel and other materials.
Custom selection for your dump truck body

For transporting hard materials (e.g. Ore, Gravel)
If your dump truck frequently transports hard materials such as ore and gravel, advanced wear-resistant steel plates are recommended. Specifically, we utilize premium-grade steel like SSAB's Hardox series steel plates, AR 450 steel, AR 500, and NM 450 steel to manufacture the dump truck body. These steel are selected for their exceptional wear-resistance and impact resistance, ensuring the steel dump body a longer service life and enhanced durability.
For transporting ordinary materials
For dump trucks primarily used to transport less abrasive materials, we offer a cost-effective solution by using high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steel plates as the raw material. This option ensures optimal performance while keeping costs manageable for less demanding workloads.

Materials of dump truck bodies
High-strength and wear-resistant steel plates are commonly used raw materials for making dump truck bodies.
According to different working environment and working conditions, the steel required for the body processing of the dump truck is different. For example, in the mining industry, you need high surface hardness, good abrasion resistance of steel plates such as AR450 steel, Hardox 500 steel, etc.
For the dump truck used in general engineering construction, high-strength steel plates are usually used to enhance the body carrying capacity and impact resistance of the dump truck.

Why choose us?

Customized solution
Our engineers work closely with clients to design and fabricate dump truck beds tailored to specific operational needs. Whether it's adjusting dimensions, load capacity, or structural features, we provide fully customized solutions that maximize efficiency and productivity for your applications.

Steel options
For heavy load dump trucks, durability and resistance to wear and tear are important. High strength wear resistant steel plate such as Hardox 450, Hardox 500, NM 500, and BISPLATE450 are designed to withstand the harshest conditions, including heavy loads, abrasion, and impact, significantly extending the lifespan of dump truck beds.

Coating services
To further enhance durability and protect against corrosion, we offer comprehensive coating services, including sandblasting and painting. The SA2.5 grade sandblasting creates an ideal base for coating, while our painting process achieves a dry film thickness (DFT) of over 125μm, ensuring that dump truck beds remain in top condition even in the most challenging environments.
Conclusion
SYNERGIA has extensive experience in the manufacture of custom dump truck bodies. We can strictly process dump truck bodies according to customer's drawing. Leave us a message on your needs, and we will go back to you in 24 hours.
FAQ
What material is a dump truck body?
Wear-resistant steel plate such as Hardox 450 steel, AR 500 steel, and NM 450 steel are used to fabricated steel dump truck body. They have good performance of high-strength, wear resistance, and impact resistance.
How thick is the steel on a dump truck bed?
The thickness of the dump body steel plate is usually between 8-10 mm. For mining dump trucks with extremely heavy loads or harsh working environments, the thickness of the steel plate may reach 14mm.
What are the different body types of dump trucks?
The different body types of dump trucks are rectangular carriage, mining bucket carriage, and U-shaped carriage.
