X3000 6x4 Dump Truck 430HP Wet Clay Tipper 22 CBM Rounded Anti Stick Bed Build

Half the tipper trucks sold into humid regions come back with a bed full of dried clay. This X3000 6x4 is set up specifically for cohesive material: the 22 cubic metre body uses a rounded bottom with no square corners, and the inner surface carries a 4mm anti-stick polymer liner that clay slides off instead of packing into. A rear tailgate with an adjustable rubber seal keeps slurry inside on the road.

Power is the Weichai WP12 at 430 horsepower, driving through a FAST 12-speed gearbox and a 4.769 rear axle ratio, a compromise that still accelerates a loaded truck on flat runs to the tip site. The engine brake and exhaust valve brake matter more here than top speed, because wet clay loads are heavy and downhill stretches at fill sites are common.

• Rounded bed geometry removes the corner pockets where wet clay sets hard overnight.
• Anti-stick liner is replaceable in sections, so a worn patch does not mean a new body.
• Exhaust valve brake plus engine brake hold a loaded truck on wet 8 percent descents.
• Lug pattern tyres and a locking differential option for fill sites that turn to slurry after rain.
• Underside of the body is reinforced at the cylinder mount, the first place a wet load damages.
• Grease points grouped on the left frame rail for a faster daily service walk-round.

Earthworks contractors working monsoon belts, dredging spoil haulage, canal and embankment projects, brick clay pits. If your material stands up in the bed when you tip it, this configuration is the one to price against a standard square body.

• Liner and seal kit packed separately inside the cab for sea freight.
• RORO, bulk or flat rack shipment, with lifting points marked for the stevedore crew.
• Documentation set includes commercial invoice, packing list, B/L and certificate of origin on request.
