The types of trucks suitable for installing car tailboards need to be comprehensively judged based on the vehicle's purpose, load capacity, and tailboard adaptability, mainly divided into the following categories:

1、 Applicable vehicle classification and tailboard adaptation plan

Light box truck

     Scope of application: Blue brand trucks with a total mass of ≤ 4.5 tons (such as Foton Aoling and Isuzu Yifang ES5), suitable for high-frequency loading and unloading scenarios such as urban distribution and express delivery.

     Tailboard selection: It is recommended to use folding or vertical lifting tailboards, with a load capacity of less than 1 ton and a board length of ≤ 1.5 meters, to avoid increasing the weight of the vehicle and affecting the load coincidence compliance.

Medium sized flatbed truck

     Scope of application: Fence/flatbed trucks with a total mass of 4.5-12 tons (such as Dongfeng Tianjin KR), mainly used for the transportation of mechanical equipment and building materials.

     Tailboard selection: It needs to be compatible with cantilever tailboards, with a load capacity of 1.5-2 tons, and the board surface can be expanded to 2 meters to meet the needs of heavy cargo loading and unloading.

Heavy duty tractor and semi-trailer

     Scope of application: Long distance transport vehicles with a total mass greater than 12 tons (such as Jiefang J7), suitable for bulk cargo or container transportation.

Tailboard selection: A 3-ton hydraulic cantilever tailboard is required, with priority given to steel materials to withstand high-frequency heavy load operations.

2、 Adaptation requirements for special purpose vehicles

Refrigerated truck

     Space for the refrigeration unit needs to be reserved, and aluminum alloy tailboards (light weight, corrosion-resistant) should be selected. After installation, the overall height should be ≤ 2.8 meters to comply with urban traffic restrictions.

Dangerous goods transport vehicle

     Must pass explosion-proof certification, the tailboard material must be corrosion-resistant, anti-static, and equipped with anti leakage barriers to avoid blocking safety sign lights/signs.

3、 Compliance and Cost Key Points

Weight and size limitations

     The total weight of the blue light truck after installing the tailboard must be strictly controlled within 4.5 tons, otherwise it will not pass the annual inspection.

     When the tailboard is retracted, the thickness should be ≤ 30 centimeters to avoid punishment for excessive expansion.

Material and cost balance

     Steel tailboards have a low cost (about 10000-20000 yuan), but they are heavy and suitable for general cargo transportation; Aluminum alloy tailboard has a high cost (20000 to 30000 yuan), but reduces weight by 30%, making it suitable for high fuel consumption or cold chain scenarios.

Installation benefits

     Taking the 4.2-meter light truck as an example, the daily loading and unloading efficiency of the tail board has been increased by more than 50%, reducing 1-2 movers, and the payback period is about 6-12 months.

4、 Quick Decision Logic

     High frequency loading and unloading+light cargo → folding tailboard

     Heavy cargo+long-distance transportation → cantilevered tailboard

     Refrigeration/Hazardous Chemicals → Aluminum Alloy Material+Industry Certification
