Reading Utility Bodies


Custom Bodies  

Bodies built to exacting customer specifications.  Reading’s Engineering Department can work with you to develop a “standardized” solution which will save your company time and money.

Features 


 
EXCLUSIVE DUAL PRO™ SEAL SYSTEM

  • Dual line of defense against weather and the elements:
         1. Automotive quality bubble type seal
         2. Mechanical seal provides secondary defense
  • The design increases clear door openings in every compartment of the body
  • Patent pending design

    Benefit: The most complete weather protection available in the industry, and improved access to compartments.  It also eliminates metal-to-metal contact and paint deterioration due to opening and closing the compartment doors.



  •  
    THICKER, HEAVIER, DOUBLE-PANELED DOORS

  • 3/8" thicker than industry standard
  • Internal reinforcement with full length steel hat section
  • Thick 18 gauge steel outer door skin
  • Doors are double paneled

    Benefit: A stronger, more secure door.



  •  
    Stainless Steel Bolt-on Hinges, Concealed Hinge Pins

  • Compartment doors are mounted on stainless steel bolt-on hinges
  • Hinge pins are fully concealed, eliminating exposure to the elements

    Benefit: Compartment doors operate smoothly in all weather conditions.  If needed, compartment doors can also be replaced with ease.



  •  
    Improved Rotary Locks

  • Enhanced design for ease of door closure
  • Double bitted high quality lock cylinder
  • O-ring seal prevents water intrusion
  • Adjustable striker pins

    Benefit: Superior security, corrosion resistance, water-tight design, and ease of door closure.



  •  
    T-handle locks

  • Positive-action, folding T-handle rivet-on three point door locks
  • Additional lock types such as D-Ring and slam-action are also available

    Benefit: T-handle locks prevent accidental release by snagging, shock, or vibration.  Riveted locks are easy to replace (if needed).



  •  
    Seamless steel wheelhouse panel

  • Strengthened by a steel rocker panel which also protects against road splash

    Benefit: Elimination of seams in this area prevents water buildup which can lead to premature rusting.



  •  
    A-60 Galvannealed Steel Construction

    Reading service bodies feature two-sided zinc coated A-60 galvannealed steel construction.



     
    Acrylic E-Coat Priming

    Steel bodies enter a 12-state process which thoroughly cleans, rinses, and finally primes the steel by electrically fusing the primer to the steel. This process provides complete coverage to the body, even in the most hidden or recessed areas.

    Benefit: Combining A-60 galvannealed steel with Acrylic E-coat priming provides the best and most comprehensive protection against rust and corrosion available in the industry.
