If you’re looking for a way to transport goods safely and efficiently, a tautliner truck is a good option to consider. Tautliner trucks come with a side curtain to give workers better access to materials. This vehicle is fully mine spec, making it ideal for rough terrain and onsite use.
What is a tautliner truck?
A tautliner truck, also known as a curtainside truck, has a permanent curtain attached to its side. This helps protect goods from the elements, and allows workers and forklifts to access the freight from the side. Tautliner trucks are a versatile and efficient way to transport goods. They are commonly used in retail, manufacturing, and construction industries. Tautliner trucks are especially useful on mining sites to transport large quantities of construction equipment.
Tautliner trucks are much more efficient to load and unload than regular trucks. They have the flexibility to accommodate a wider variety of goods. This saves time and money, especially when transporting big loads.
What are the features of a mine spec tautliner truck?
A mine spec tautliner truck is modified to meet the specific requirements of a mine site. This makes the vehicle safer and more efficient onsite. The mine spec features of our tautliner truck include a fire extinguisher, first aid kit, battery isolator, safety triangles, and more. They increase the durability of the vehicle, making it ideal for long-term hire.
Northfleet’s mine spec tautliner truck is equipped with auto transmission, a single drive axle with a lazy axle, and a six cylinder turbo intercooled engine. It also comes with air conditioning, cruise control, and USB connection. The tautliner truck seats two people, including the driver.
