Crysteel Manufacturing, one of the world's leading dump body and hoist manufacturers, showcased its Paradox and Raptor Class 8 dump bodies and Roller Combo 650 hoist at the Work Truck Show, March 14–17.
“Crysteel is focused on providing cutting-edge products and services to the Class 8 market that improve our customers' operations,” said Stephen Hueser, general manager, Crysteel Manufacturing. “Our Hy-Flo twin electric power unit is available for use with our traditional hoist products, like the Roller Combo hoist, and can cut installation time by up to 66 percent.”
The Crysteel Roller Combo 650 hoist, paired with the Hy-Flo twin electric power unit, offers the benefits of a scissors hoist and a double arm hoist in a single unit. Its innovative design provides optimum breakaway power at the start and consistent power throughout the entire dumping cycle, making it an ideal solution for full load dumping applications. The Roller Combo 650 hoist has a load capacity up to 26.6 tons, and the full-length subframe provides stability and added strength to the truck frame.
Crysteel Paradox Class 8 bodies are constructed of lightweight, high-strength steel, which results in bodies that are lighter than traditional steel bodies. The Paradox model is offered in standard and heavy-duty versions, and feature a square body style, an air release high lift tailgate, and horizontal side bracing. Available body sizes range from 14 to 21.5 feet with capacities from 13 to 26 yards. Paradox dump bodies are manufactured in the U.S.A. and come with an industry-leading five-year warranty.
Crysteel Raptor Class 8 bodies feature a smooth elliptical design that provides operators with optimum performance in the field. The Raptor bodies are constructed of super high-strength steel and weigh less than standard bodies. Additional features include a sloped, full rib, air release tailgate, and a straight front. The Raptor model is available in body sizes ranging from 14 to 21.5 feet with capacities from 17 to 26 yards. Raptor dump bodies are manufactured in the U.S.A. and come with an industry-leading five-year warranty.
