Knapheide Spotlight: Industry-Leading Work Truck Bodies
Why do we stand behind Knapheide? Knapheide has been in the work truck business for more than 170 years and is a brand trusted by large fleets and small businesses alike. They are currently one of the most popular manufacturers of truck bodies and truck beds in North America. Knapheide offers an incredibly wide range of standard work truck bodies as well as custom options to meet the needs of almost any industry or trade. In the sections below, we’ll highlight some of their most popular truck bodies to help you determine which is best for your fleet.
Popular Knapheide Service Body Truck Styles
All Knapheide service bodies are fully tested and supported with a six-year, unlimited mileage warranty, so you can feel confident in your investment. They also come in a wide variety of sizes, from half tons to class eight. Here’s a rundown of the most popular service body truck styles from Knapheide:
Steel Service Bodies: Knapheide steel service body trucks are some of the most popular utility truck bodies on the market. They feature rugged galvanneal steel construction and plenty of external storage. They also come equipped with adjustable compartment shelving so that you can customize the setup to suit your needs.
Aluminum Service Bodies: Aluminum service bodies are less dense and more lightweight than steel ones, which means greater hauling capacity and improved maneuverability. Although more lightweight materials often means a more light-duty truck, Knapheide aluminum bodies are made with military-grade aluminum, include structural adhesives to maximize strength and longevity, and have been tested in the harshest environments.
Combo Bodies: If you can’t decide between a service body and a platform body, then a combo body might be the truck body for you. With the storage of a utility bed truck and the capabilities of a flatbed truck, Knapheide’s combo bodies deliver the best of both worlds. With multiple configurations, including DRW in 10’ and 12’ lengths, 40” tall side packs with flip tops, and 46” and 60” tall side packs (no flip tops), this truck can meet the needs of almost any industry or line of work.
Crane Bodies: If you need help with heavy lifting on a regular basis, a crane body from Knapheide will take the weight off your shoulders. Depending on your lifting and hauling needs, they make crane bodies to meet the needs of light-duty trucks, extremely heavy-duty trucks, and everything in between. These crane bodies are carefully constructed and reinforced with heavy crane applications and rigorously tested to ensure they can withstand the torsional forces of lifting operations.
