Somerset, PA (June 30, 2000). J&J Truck Bodies & Trailers, a division of Somerset Welding and Steel, Inc., and a leading manufacturer of dump bodies and trailers, today announced the addition of two new units to its current line of dump bodies. The DynaHauler® ASE is an aluminum semi-elliptical body designed to haul asphalt, gravel, sand, and other materials. Its lightweight and flat floor allows operators to haul more material with each trip. And the body's semi-elliptical design ensures that all material is easily discharged, reducing waste and making it a virtually self cleaning unit.

The second is the DynaHauler® HR, an half round dump body (available in aluminum or steel) used primarily in paving and other material hauling applications. The half round body is designed to allow material to easily and quickly flow into paving machines or stockpiles. Unlike traditional flat side dump bodies that have to discharge their loads in larger areas, the half round is uniquely designed to keep materials in a smaller, targeted area.

Somerset Welding and Steel, Inc. is a subsidiary of Riggs Industries and was founded in 1958. The company specializes in building aluminum and steel dump bodies for light, medium, and heavy chassis used in construction and other applications. They also build aluminum and heavy-duty steel trailers for rock hauling and demolition and excavation work. In addition, they manufacture walking floor refuse trailers, tippers, and push outs for the waste industry. J&J Truck Bodies & Trailers is an ISO 9001 certified company, serving clients worldwide.
