Let's look at some facts about Clement Dump
Trailers:
Axles - Look at Clement's running gear, the hardest-working part of
your trailer. Clement is standard with 102" wide rockwell axles. World-renowned as
the strongest, longest lasting axle available. Same big inner & outer bearings,
premium brake linings give you the, safe, long dependable life you deserve.
Suspension - Your axles are tied to a 50,000# hutch suspension, again,
a proven heavy duty suspension to give you the stability you need in those uneven,
disappearing ground situations. 11r/24.5 radial tires on hub piloted uni-mount disk
wheels. All premium standard equipment.
Steel - The important part that carries your loads. Clement uses only
certified steel, to Clement's fussy spec's. Supporting documents accompany each load. Not
cheap off spec end-runs. All premium steel. We know just how our steel will form &
weld to match our strict engineering standards.
Paint - We all know how hard it is to keep paint on steel. Well,
Clement attacked this problem with a vengeance. Today your trailer goes through a grueling
6 step prep & paint process. Clement does all it can to deliver a 5-year paint job.
Cylinders - With Clement's inverted outboard mounted cylinder option,
there's no doghouse. Material flows freely. Packing life is greatly extended because dirt
& debris can't lie on the packing glands & work into your hydraulic system. Your
standard cylinder is the expensive custom hoist, with adjustable packings.
Not a cheap, hope it doesn't leak, cylinder. You get the dependability you deserve.
"Bridgers" - Sliding tandems allow more payload, more
maneuverability, more stability with shorter trailers. Meet federal bridge laws with short
trailers. Get 2000 extra pounds on your front axle with the Clement bridger. Plus there is
no lost time. As you back up to the dumping point, flip the lock switch, apply the hand
brake, and continue backing to slide the "bridger" into the dumping position.
Bathtubs - Clement pioneered the unique frameless "bathtub"
design. Big 8" corners & front radius give far more strength than the other guys
square corners. Clement's direct mount massive mainframe & bolster system, without
cross members, really beef's up the entire structure, plus, maintains a flat floor. In no
time at all, the other guy's floor gets washboard ripples that makes stuff stick &
hard to get out. The formed reinforced side panels further beef up the body, without all
the wasted structure. It has lived through over 25 years of abuse & refinements. It is
super strong, ridged, and lightweight!! Now the Starlite only weights 10,540 pounds. It's
super strong & dependable.
½ Round Rock - Frameless dump trailers, virtually indestructible
super strong, certified, "AR" 450 steel, and 150,000 PSI. This gives you the
piece of mind you need to haul whatever you need to. Big rock, scrap, sand & stone or
whatever. The outboard cylinder eliminates the troublesome doghouse. the high air lift
tailgate gives you 80" in the clear to dump the biggest stuff out easy. in the last
five years, Clement has built & sold more 1/2 round dump trailers than the next 3
companies combined. Field-tested by customers that haul such big nasty rocks it would make
arnold schwarzenegger afraid. glen hick's relentless pursuit of perfection gives you the
assurance your rock, scrap & demo dumps will out perform all other dump trailers.
"Bullet proof" scrap & demo
dumps - Haul all the nasty stuff you want. You
get the same proven bathtub design, premium rockwell/ hutch running gear.
Certified
"AR" 450 steel body shell with a full wrap floor. it wraps
up the sides 8".
Virtually indestructible. Clement's famous outboard inverted cylinder.
Eliminates the troublesome doghouse & greatly extends cylinder life.
Best of all your scrapstar is lightweight. You get big dollar payloads.
Clement
frameless dump trailers are the most stable. Look at the facts.
Stability - A solid base. You get a wide base on
the ground, 102"
wide axles, and all 8 tires on the ground through 80% of dump cycle.
36,000 lb. and 50,000 lb. suspensions. Strong outboard draft arms helps
hold the body at the center from swaying. The only thing holding the
body on a frame type trailer is the hinge pin, and that's really far
away from the action at the front of the box!!!
"Bathtub" body design - The 8" curved
corners at the floor. The beefy front. The full massive boxed main
frame with side bolster system; make your Clement's body torsion sally
far more ridged to help prevent too much "body
flex". Plus you get far more payload.
Lower center of gravity - When Clement frameless dump trailers start
to rise, the rear of the trailer goes down, lowering the "cg" prox 2 feet lower
than frame type trailers. Also the loads slide out of Clement bodies far easier &
faster than square or aluminum bodies.
Clement's world-class engineering, premium components and meticulous attention to the
details are just some of the reasons Clement is America's leading selling dump trailer in
the USA.
