Solid Stake Sides

E-Z Loader Contractor Package

Models to fit Pacesetter and Value-Master platforms 8’5” through 12’5” in length. Sides and tailgate fold down for complete access to platform when loading. Double-acting tailgate with metering chains also opens from the bottom; used with Knaphoist for spreading sand or gravel. Stake pocket model bulkhead included standard. Ideally suited for landscape nurseries, contractors, municipalities, pallet loading, or one ton super duty applications due to extreme loading heights.

Bulkheads

Stake Pocket Bulkhead

The Stake Pocket Bulkhead is recommended for use with stake racks in lieu of a standard stake front. Bulkhead stakes fit platform front stake pockets. Features include rust-resistant punched window (instead of expanded metal commonly used), and material gauges to 11 gauge high strength (9 gauge equivalent).

 

Permanently Installed Bulkhead

The Permanently Installed Bulkhead is recommended on platforms with bulkhead only, although it may be used with stake racks. 3” structural intermediate posts secure bulkhead to platform long sills. One-piece box section corner posts mate to front of platform. “Knee-brace” gussets weld to underside of platform side rail for added support. Bulkhead includes rust resistant punched window. All models constructed of 11 gauge high strength (9 gauge equivalent).

 

Conversion Hoists

A wide range of conversion hoists are available based on your platform length, CA and tonnage requirements.
