Dumper Parts

A dumper truck, also known as a tipper lorry, is typically used for transporting large loads or dumps of aggregates such as sand, gravel, rubble and other types of onsite rubble. For many sites, the dumper truck is an essential piece of equipment for different jobs across various industries including infrastructure, mining, winter services and more.

Different Types of Dumper Truck

There are a number of different types of dumper truck with varying capacities, these include dump trucks, which are essentially a lorry with a flat-bed which has a tailgate hinged at the top to open automatically when its contents is being dumped. Forward tipping skip loaders, however, have a bucket at the front, this type of dumper is able to tip from heights and is available in light weight, medium weight and tracked. In most types of dumpers, the tipping mechanism is powered hydraulically and, in order to prevent accidents, the truck has to be running before the mechanism can be used.

Dumper Maintenance

The dumper truck is a heavily used piece of equipment and as such many of its parts are subject to extreme wear and tear. Replacing the whole vehicle is expensive, therefore replacing parts sooner rather than later, can help to prevent further damage and extend the life of the engine and the other parts of the equipment.
