Boyden, Iowa-based transportation company Demco will adopt an abrasion-resistant material as the standard in all of the company’s Side Dump tub walls. Demco will incorporate ¼-inch AR450 abrasion-resistant material, marking a shift toward durability and longevity in side dump equipment.
The company says the decision to implement ¼-inch AR450 as the standard material comes in response to the industry’s growing demand for enhanced durability and wear resistance. By integrating this advanced material, Demco says is setting a new benchmark for performance and reliability in the side dump sector.
In addition to the standard ¼-inch AR450 option, Demco is also introducing a lightweight alternative in the form of 3/16-inch AR450 for specific applications, providing customers with greater flexibility to tailor their equipment to the unique requirements of their operations.
“We are excited to announce the adoption of abrasion resistant material as the new standard in our Side Dump tub walls,” says Chuck Oppedal, semitrailer sales manager at Demco. “This decision underscores our unwavering commitment to delivering superior products that exceed industry standards and meet the evolving needs of our customers. With the incorporation of ¼-inch AR450 as standard and the introduction of the lightweight 3/16-inch option, we are empowering our customers with durable, reliable and customizable solutions for their side dump applications.”
