Side Rail

The 6" formed steel side rail has several available options.

Stake Pockets

Two pipe spools are positioned between the 48" o.c. spaced stake pockets to help prevent damage from side-loading equipment. Each stake pocket and pipe spool is a tested and approved tie-down location, complying with Transport Canada requirements. Extra stake pockets (24" o.c.) are available.
