West Coat Trains Steel Bottom Hopper

Engineered to provide an optimum return on your investment!

Big, rugged hoppers ideal for general contracting

Ideally suited for general contracting

These big, rugged Clement Monoshell hopper trains carry a total of 20.5 cubic yards. Hi-tensile, all-welded Mono-Shell construction means greater durability … less dead-weight. You haul bigger legal loads of aggregate, sand, fill … and dump them faster. Built to take the abuse of rough loading, Clement Mono-Shell trains are equipped with air-powered clam shell gates. Dumping is quick … cleanout complete.

Only the Clement Monoshell gives you …

Biggest Payloads — Mono-Shell design takes weight out of the equipment … puts it in the payload. • Faster Operation — No cross bracing to slow up loading … no interior projection. Steep, smooth sides mean faster, complete cleanout. • Lowest Maintenance — Clement engineering combines simplicity and ruggedness in a field-tested, customer-proved design • Longer-Life — The stronger, lighter mono-shell design combined with exclusive stress-flex mounting eliminates the rigidity of truss-frame trailers.

The Monoshell’s air-powered gates meet your every requirement

Clement’s air-powered clamshell gates work faster, permit on-the-go discharge. Actuated by large, twin 6-inch double-acting cylinders, gates can be stopped and held at any position … readily closed against the load. The dumping rate is controlled by opening the gate to any desired position … spreader chains positively position the gates for laying windrows.

Just one valve opertes the air-powered gate. The valve is located conveniently at the side of the body. Optional in-cab controls permit the gate to operate from the cab or the trailer. Meets all ICC regulations … safety regulator maintains brake pressure under emergencies.

A lighter, stronger Mono-Shell design

A stronger, lighter Mono-Shell design combined with the exclusive stress-flex mounting eliminates the rigidity of truss-frame hoppers. This “designed-in” flexibility means mono-shell hoppers roll with the punch … they absorb the stress and abuse of rough loading and uneven terrain.
