H-SERIES LINE BODIES

Utility companies put their line construction and maintenance vehicles to some mighty tough tests. Knapheide engineered the H-Series to meet those demanding requirements.

The Knapheide H-Series mounts on medium-duty and heavy-duty truck chassis. Twelve basic models give compartment configurations to meet most needs. "H" models have vertical compartments behind each wheelhousing. "BH" (Bobtail) models have shorter rear overhang to balance load conditions when using certain aerial and digging equipment.

• Thick, tough 14 G.A. steel throughout entire side compartment shell as compared to competitive bodies which use thinner 16 or 18 G.A.
• Galvanneal coated parts for increased body life.
• Complete immersion in electrodeposition gray epoxy prime paint featuring a zinc phosphate precoat and seal for additional corrosion protection.
• Body underside completely undercoated.
• Finish Coat...for long lasting beauty and final protection of all outside surfaces.

Choose just the right Knapheide platform and factory engineered options by using these four easy-to-follow steps...

1. Choose from Value-Master, Value-Master-X or Pacesetter-X platforms.
2. Choose one of Knapheide's factory engineered side packages. Consider 28" or 40" high steel or wood stake racks, solid sides from 28" to 52" high, conventional or dropside contractor sides.
3. Choose one of Knapheide's new heavy duty, automotive finish quality bulkheads, ideal for use with stake racks, or alone with a platform.
4. Choose a time-proven Knaphoist underbody subframe or conventional conversion hoist. All Value-master-X and Pacesetter-X platforms have been engineered to be compatible with the Knaphoist, providing extra low mounting height and maximum stability under load. Capacities to 50 tons are available.
