DuraClass recently introduced the newly improved HPT Tub Body Line.
The HPT-B1 features a closed fender design, and comes in 14- to 18-foot lengths in either carbon steel or stainless steel. The HPT-B1 has capacity ranges from 10- to 20-yards.
The HPT-B2 features an open fender design, which decreases the possible areas for rust and the overall body weight.
