Duratray International
Duratray International is a specialist global supplier of high efficiency dump bodies for mining and quarry haul trucks. The major product-line offered is the unique Duratray rubber suspended dump body (SDB). The Duratray SDB provides benefits in terms of resistance to abrasion, reduced maintenance requirements - hence higher operational availability, significantly reduced carry-back with wet or sticky materials, lower shock and vibration to the truck and its operator, plus reduced noise levels during loading and discharge. In addition Duratray SDB’s are lighter in weight and have higher volumetric capacity than standard designs from haul truck manufacturers.
Duratray SDB’s are currently operating on haul trucks from 30 tonnes to 380 tonnes capacity and are enjoying increased levels of acceptance in large-scale mines for minerals such as copper, nickel, coal, bauxite, gold and iron ore. www.duratray.com
