Plastic Liners for Truck Trays and Tubs

A bare steel or timber truck tray takes a beating from every load of rock, sand, scrap or aggregate that goes in and out, and sticky loads that won't tip clean cost time and fuel every trip. A cut-to-size plastic liner protects the tray from impact and abrasion while giving loads a low-friction surface to slide off.

We cut HDPE and UHMWPE liner sheet to your tray or tub dimensions, either as a full-floor liner or as separate floor and side panels bolted or fixed in place.

HDPE vs UHMWPE for Truck Liner Applications

HDPE is the standard choice for general truck tray liners, tough, impact-resistant and cost-effective for floor and side panels on tippers, utes and trailers carrying aggregate, scrap, sand or general bulk loads.

UHMWPE steps up in abrasion resistance and has an even lower coefficient of friction, making it the better option for the heaviest-duty tipper applications, high-impact loading points, or where load stick has been a persistent problem with a standard liner.

Yellow mining-spec HDPE adds UV stability and extra toughness for liners exposed to continuous outdoor duty and harsh mine-site conditions.

Reducing Load Stick and Protecting the Tray

Loads that stick to a bare steel tray don't just waste time tipping. Repeated hammering to shift stuck material dents and eventually cracks the tray itself. A low-friction plastic liner lets material release cleanly under normal tipping action, cutting both delay and structural wear on the vehicle.

Liners also stop direct metal-on-material contact, which is the main driver of tray corrosion and denting over the life of the vehicle.

Mining and Heavy-Duty Truck Applications

Mining and quarry tipper fleets are the heaviest users of plastic tray liners, running UHMWPE or thick-gauge HDPE liners to handle constant loading of ore, aggregate and rock without punching through.

The same liners suit council and civil trucks handling asphalt, sand and general fill, and rural trucks and utes carrying feed, fertiliser or scrap.

Custom Cut Liners for Your Vehicle

Send us your tray or tub dimensions (length, width, side wall height and any obstructions like wheel arches or headboard shape) and we'll cut a liner kit sized to fit, with fixing holes to suit your preferred mounting method.

Full sheets are also available if your workshop prefers to template and cut the liner in-house.

Truck Liners FAQ

HDPE or UHMWPE for a truck tray liner?
HDPE suits general tipper and ute tray liners on cost. UHMWPE is worth the upgrade for the heaviest-duty applications or where load stick has been a persistent issue, thanks to its lower friction and better abrasion resistance.
Will a plastic liner stop loads sticking to the tray?
Yes, the low-friction surface of HDPE and UHMWPE liners helps loads release cleanly during tipping, reducing the need to hammer or scrape material loose.
Do liners protect the tray from corrosion?
Yes, by separating the load from bare steel, plastic liners significantly reduce the denting and corrosion that comes from direct metal-on-material contact.
Can you cut a liner to fit my specific tray dimensions?
Yes, provide the tray or tub measurements including wall height and any obstructions, and we'll cut a liner kit sized to fit with fixing holes as required.
What thickness liner do I need?
It depends on load type and duty: general fill and sand suit lighter gauge HDPE, while rock, ore and continuous heavy-duty tipping suit thicker HDPE or UHMWPE.
