Construction & Safety

Several of the Scorpion lineup’s proprietary design features drive performance and longevity. Each Scorpion TMA is built with curved side rails designed to absorb energy from and redirect impacting vehicles away from the truck’s “coffin corner,” and the aluminum box framework features a moisture-proof aluminum honeycomb material. The aluminum boxes are painted with a bright yellow powder-coated finish, for high visibility and lasting durability.
