When it comes to asphalt haulage, not all truck bodies are created equal. The challenges of transporting hot mix—from maintaining temperature and minimising waste, to ensuring operator safety and maximising jobsite efficiency—require a truck body that’s built with purpose. EjectX by ShawX Manufacturing, is a revolutionary solution that’s redefining what an asphalt spec truck body should be.
There is now selection in the market.
Let’s break down exactly why the EjectX is growing in the market, and how it checks all the boxes that matter most to asphalt professionals.

Technical Specs & Features That Matter

Insulation Type & Thickness

The inner lining of the EjectX is made from QT450 steel (Quench Tempered 450 Grade steel), meaning harder and less susceptible to heat stress, which helps retain heat during transit—critical when delivering hot mix to job sites. Combined with an asphalt spec tarp and tarp cover, it effectively protects the load from temperature loss and environmental exposure.
Unlike a traditional asphalt hauling truck or asphalt conveyor truck that may suffer temperature loss through inefficient insulation, the EjectX retains more heat, improving mix quality on delivery.

Material of Construction

Built tough with Bisalloy 750 and 450 grade steel, the EjectX resists wear and abrasion without compromising on weight. This means it’s rugged enough for asphalt yet light enough to maximise payload.
This makes it a superior choice to many standard asphalt truck bodies, which often sacrifice either strength or weight efficiency.

Safety You Can Trust

Thanks to its rectangular shape, the EjectX maximises internal volume—allowing for increased payloads. The lightweight yet durable materials further increase hauling efficiency.
Compared to conventional asphalt trucks, the EjectX offers better capacity and improved payload optimisation.

Tailgate Design

Instead of relying on traditional tailgates, barn doors or asphalt aprons, the EjectX uses a rear plough and horizontal hydraulic ram system with an air-actuated lifting tailgate that’s lifts high and out of harms way to eject material. This ensures a clean, controlled, and safe discharge without tipping the body.
Standard asphalt delivery trucks typically rely on tipping mechanisms, increasing the risk of accidents and inefficient unloading. EjectX eliminates this risk entirely.

Floor Slope and Smoothness

The internal surface is engineered for smooth flow, aided by a powerful scraper system that ensures no material hang-up—resulting in a clean empty every time with minimal cleanout required.

Safety You Can Trust

Safety Features
Safety is built into the EjectX design. There’s no tipping, reducing the chance of rollovers or hitting overhead wires. A low centre of gravity, providing truck stability and reducing the wear & tear on your suspension, in-cab controls, dual cameras, non-slip access surfaces, all to help protect both operators and work crews.

This gives it a significant advantage over traditional asphalt trucks for sale, which typically rely on tipping methods that pose rollover and clearance risks.

System Monitoring
The custom 10” in-cab control panel allows operators to monitor and manage operations from the cab, reducing human error and increasing safety and control over the load condition. With the simple press of a button, that function is then relayed to the screen for full view for the driver.

Customisation & Compatibility Built In

Chassis Compatibility
The EjectX is built to work with a wide range of chassis, allowing easy fitment to your existing fleet with minimal modification required, and can be easily retro fitted to any truck.

Whether you’re upgrading an older asphalt delivery truck or adding new capability to your fleet, the EjectX is a ready-to-fit solution.

Paver Compatibility
The EjectX is designed with rear overhang and dimensions that match standard asphalt pavers—ensuring efficient hand-off of hot mix to the hopper.

Standard Features
The EjectX does not have add-on options as every body is built to be put straight to work, providing the best product to each customer. Some of the standard features include:

• Asphalt spec tarp system
• Dual safety and load monitoring cameras
• Custom 10” control screen with pre-set modes
• Tool box
• Water tank & wash station
• Pull out ladders
• Fold up mudflaps and tail lights

This full feature set places it ahead of many asphalt truck bodies that require costly upgrades to meet the same specification.

Cost & Value That Pays Off

Price Ranges
While prices will vary depending on configuration, the EjectX always represents excellent value considering its full-asphalt-spec design, which eliminates the need for costly add-ons or retrofits after purchase. The EjectX is an all-in-one cost with a body built to go straight to work.

Compared to purchasing a standard asphalt truck for sale and retrofitting features later, the EjectX saves time and money upfront.

Durability & Lifespan
Thanks to high-grade steel, a maintenance-minimised design (no chains, slats, or belts), and fewer moving parts, when it comes to maintenance, the EjectX stands alone with minimal downtime and significantly reduced repair costs compared to other market options.

As an alternative to traditional asphalt conveyor trucks, the EjectX reduces wear points and mechanical complexity.

Resale Value
The combination of safety, durability, and performance makes the EjectX a strong investment with excellent resale potential in the secondary market.

Regulatory & Jobsite Requirements: Fully Covered

Weight Limits
Thanks to its lightweight Bisalloy construction, the EjectX allows for maximum payload without breaching weight restrictions—helping you stay compliant while hauling more.

CLOCS-A Standard

The EjectX body is considered compliant with the new CLOCS-A Safety standard introduced in 2025.

Designed for Asphalt, Built for the Job

If you’re serious about asphalt and safe delivery, the EjectX truck body delivers everything you need—and more. With a purpose-built non-tipping ejection system, low maintenance and clean-out design, light but durable steel construction, and unbeatable safety features, it’s the ultimate upgrade for contractors, councils, and roadwork professionals across Australia.

It’s not just another asphalt hauling truck—EjectX is the next evolution in asphalt delivery systems.

Whether you’re laying suburban streets or major highways, the EjectX brings the safety, efficiency, reliability, and control you need to get the job done right.
