Michigan Series Dump Trailers
Michigan Series Dump Trailers
East Manufacturing Corporation, specializing in aluminum design since 1968, offers durable dump trailers that maximize payload without compromising strength.
The Michigan Series Dump Trailers feature a unique aerodynamic design with 2-inch-thick, double-wall extruded aluminum panels, robotically welded for superior strength and corrosion resistance. Vertical panels are lighter and more resistant to bowing.
Advanced wall-to-floor construction with interlocking crossmembers and floor plates enhances strength. Interior panel ribs provide wall support, and a smooth-walled tailgate prevents debris buildup.
This design improves aerodynamics, reducing fuel consumption by up to ½-mile per gallon, and enhances resale value by preventing visible dents and providing superior dump stability.
Superior floor-to-side wall joints and side-walls resist deflection. The tough tailgate features continuously welded joints for maximum strength.
Features include strong solid-box crossmembers, reinforced rear posts, durable hinge shoes, corrosion-resistant paint processes, and zinc-plated tailgate pins for longevity.
Options include a sideswing tailgate guide ramp roller, ground-controlled two-way tailgate, and reinforced hoist well for enhanced functionality.
East Manufacturing provides a 5-year limited warranty and support from a network of trained dealers, ensuring long-term reliability and higher resale value.
