COLT Rock Box


 

The Rock Box is a half round design made of AR.400 1/4" plate. All construction material inside the box is AR. 400 plate including front plate and gate sheet. 
 
 
 

 

The half round design advantages are less material sticking to side walls and large rocks hitting at an angle glancing off instead of striking square into the surface.

 

 

 

                                                                                             

 

 

 Benefits

  • Double wall reinforced gate provides superior strength and aesthetics.
     
  • Our gate has self storing spread chain pockets which eliminates chain rattle, paint chipping and improved appearance.
     
  • Hi-lift tail gate has the largest opening in the industry. Hi-lift gate arms are a inverted "U" shape design, giving exceptional stability and gives a smooth self shedding surface. All gate hinges have replaceable nylon bushings which means no grease, less maintenance and less steel wear.
     
  • Colt air gate latches brake over center design are easily the strongest on the market. 
     
  • Uniquely designed fenders provide cushion from loader bumping, eliminates weld cracks, and makes it easy to replace if ruined.
     
  • Self shedding top rail - no cleaning  before entering roadways.
     
  • Advantages of the inverted trunnion mount hoist are little or no "dog house", sand and gravel fall away from the seals, easy access to lubricating pins, bleeding the air valve and removal of hoist if maintenance is needed.
     
  • Colt uses wheel abraded AR. plates in the construction, which insures the paint adheres to the bear steel instead of to the "mill scale". Mill scale flakes off along with any paint.
     
  • All COLT dump bodies are built with the air valves and cylinders inside the rear bulkhead to keep them out of the mud and ice.  Access is easy to the air valves, cylinders, and wiring  threw inspection doors.
     
  • We use TRUCK-LITE brand lights.
     
  • The main hydraulic cylinders used is a CUSTOM brand hoist.
     
  • The primer and paint we use is the top of the line Sherwin Williams epoxy primer and Genesis top coat.
