Rokbak RA30 vs RA40: Which Dump Truck is Right for You?

Rokbak offers two dump truck models, RA30 and RA40, each suited for different job site demands. The RA30 is agile for tight environments, while the RA40 carries larger payloads for high-volume operations. Matching the right truck to the job site and equipment is crucial for optimal productivity. Both models provide durability, versatility, and adaptability for various job site needs.

Rokbak articulated haulers are delivering performance on tough job sites around the world.

With two models, the decision over which truck to use depends on the demands of the operation. The RA30 and RA40 share Rokbak's core DNA of durability, simplicity and high uptime. Either model can suit almost any application. Which mean the key differentiating factors lie in areas such as payload needs, site layout and the equipment already on site.

The RA30, with its 30.9 ton payload capacity, is the agile and versatile option. Its compact size and strong manoeuvrability make it well suited to tighter or more challenging environments such as steep quarry routes, smaller infrastructure works or sites where ground conditions frequently change, according to Rokbak.

The larger RA40 offers a 41.9 ton payload for operations where moving more material per cycle is the priority. It performs at its best in high-volume production environments such as open-pit mines, large quarries or earthmoving projects with wide haul roads and long travel distances, according to Rokbak. When a site can support bigger loading equipment, the RA40 helps customers maximise output by ensuring an efficient flow of materials and reducing the cost per tonne.

Matching Truck to Job

Aligning the hauler with the right excavator or loading tool is essential. A typical target is four to six passes to fill the truck body. If significantly more passes are required, the extra payload capacity is not being fully used and overall productivity compromised.

In addition, haul road width and site congestion should influence fleet selection. Compact European sites, such as those in France, commonly rely on RA30 trucks, while markets with larger working areas and extended operating hours, such as Indonesia, often favor the RA40.

Tough, Tougher

Many customers choose to deploy mixed fleets, combining the nimble efficiency of the RA30 with the payload power of the RA40 to suit different areas of the same site.

The RA30 is the quiet workhorse that is always delivering results, while the RA40 is its tougher big brother, built to push productivity even further. Both offer strong operator comfort and control, with the RA30 equipped with true independent front suspension as standard.

More Than Hauling

Rokbak articulated haulers are not limited to material movement. Both models have been adapted for specialist roles such as water tankers for dust suppression and scraper units for surface stripping, demonstrating their versatility. Their durable build and dependable components ensure they can operate for long hours in demanding conditions where uptime is critical, according to Rokbak.

By working closely with customers to understand their requirements in detail, Rokbak is ensuring that whether it's the RA30, the RA40 or both, the right solution is always available.
