Heavy-Duty Rear Door Frame
The rear door frame of our Truck Body comes standard with the durability and strength you have come to expect from Utility. Massive 7/16-inch thick extruded aluminum rear corner posts provide additional rear frame stiffness and greater body integrity.
The Quality’s in the Details
Each Tautliner® is built to Utility’s exacting standards from the ground up. Beginning with the floors, Utility uses dry van style 4&\#34; deep hi-tensile steel cross members on 12&\#34; centers and a full 1 1/8&\#34; laminated hardwood floor. The resulting 12,000 lb. Fork truck rating provides the versatility and durability you need.
Front Corner Posts
The extra-strong 5/16&\#34; thick heavy-duty aluminum extruded front corner posts further reinforce overall structural integrity. For added roof stiffness, the upper rail is a full 6&\#34; deep aluminum extrusion.
Curtain Tensioners, Straps, and Buckles
Curtain tensioners are positioned at both front and rear for maximum versatility and load access. Our Tautliner® curtains also feature individually pocketed, 3,000 pound tensioning straps with stainless-steel buckles every 24&\#34; on center. These pockets protect the vertical straps from abrasion and allow the curtains to distribute loads evenly, resulting in longer curtain life.
