Combo Drop Decks
Rugged Dependability. High Payload Capacity.
Sharpen your focus on the bottom line with the Wabash Combo Drop Deck. As one of the first combo platforms in the industry, this drop deck is known for its rugged dependability and high payload capacity — and can be configured to meet your specific requirements.
Features & Benefits
Superior Design. Maximum Payload.
The main beam design comes with a limited lifetime warranty and provides a stronger web to flange attachment for long-life performance. Potential corrosion is eliminated between the flange and web by welding the high tensile steel at all flange-web joints.
Lower Maintenance. Increased Uptime.
The interlocking, four nailer, apitong and aluminum floor system connects using two grade-8 floor screws at each crossmember. The double shear connection reduces racking and damage to nailers around the screw holes. In addition, the radius edges on the ″C″ section siderail reduce the wear of winch straps, while the aluminum rub rail with recessed grooves protects conspicuity tape.
Superior Corrosion Resistance.
100% of steel surfaces are shot blasted prior to applying primer and paint, eliminating the need for chemical pretreatments. From the ultra high-zinc, epoxy primer and galvanic coating, to the automotive grade acrylic urethane paint, expect corrosion resistance and higher resale value.
