Truck tail lifts are essential lifting equipment designed to assist in loading and unloading cargo from trucks and vans. These lifts provide a safe and efficient way to move heavy objects from the ground to the cargo area of a vehicle, increasing overall productivity. Whether it is urban distribution, heavy freight or specialized transport, a truck tail lift is the best solution to increase loading efficiency and reduce manual labor.
Tail Material
There are two types of materials for truck tail lifts: steel and aluminum. The main difference between the two is that aluminum tailgates are lighter, which can reduce the vehicle’s weight by 150-200kg, although the price of aluminum tailgates is also higher. However, from a long-term perspective, aluminum tailgates are more recommended because they are lighter and can save more fuel for the vehicle.
Tailgate Structure
Cantilever Tail Lifts
- The cantilever tail lift is the most popular and efficient model, especially for frequent deliveries, such as urban deliveries of large packages. This tail lift enhances the loading and unloading process on vans and trucks, adding significant value to the vehicles. It allows for faster and smoother operations, making it easier to lift goods and bring them to the vehicle’s floor, streamlining the entire delivery process.
Column Tail Lifts
- Column tail lifts are exceptionally lightweight, allowing vehicles to carry heavier loads. Their compact installation takes up no space at the back of the vehicle, optimizing available load space. Additionally, they are highly adaptable to a variety of requirements.
Retractable Tail lifts
- The retractable tail lift for trucks and vans is integrated into the vehicle frame, providing an ideal solution for those who need unrestricted access to the load compartment without moving the tail lift. This design also simplifies loading and unloading operations. Retractable tail lifts can be installed on any vehicle, from small commercial vans to heavy-duty trucks. They are available in single or double folding models, depending on the available space under the chassis.
