HALLCO® products
A moving floor is not an off-the-shelf box. It is a combination of drive, bearings, subdeck and slats, chosen for the cargo and for the truck that will carry it.
Four product groups
-

i-Series drives
i-4000 and i-6000: six cylinders, mounted under the floor, seals enclosed inside the cylinders. Rated 35 and 45 tons (US).
See the i-Series -

W Floor and BRUTE
A sealed floor for waste trucks, paired with the BRUTE drive mounted at the front of the box, with no hydraulic hoses under the trailer.
See the W Floor -

Floor slats and plastic floor
Standard, LoadKeeper, Double Ridge, Triple Ridge, AG Topseal, Tufdeck, NLR, NLR-HD and the plastic slat. Each profile suits a cargo group.

Stationary systems
LIVE FLOOR® for bunkers, bins and containers fixed at the plant, feeding material steadily into the production line.
