In the construction, roadbuilding, quarrying and mining sectors, productivity depends on vehicles that can handle demanding conditions while delivering maximum payloads and operational efficiency. Mercedes-Benz Trucks offers a range of tipper solutions designed to meet the varying requirements of construction and material-handling operations, from highly manoeuvrable site vehicles to high-capacity medium-haul combinations.
Mercedes-Benz Arocs 3336K/36: The Construction Industry Benchmark
Widely regarded as the benchmark in the three-axle tipper segment, the Mercedes-Benz Arocs 3336K/36 has earned a reputation for reliability, stability and exceptional productivity in challenging off-road environments.
Designed for road building, heavy construction, material handling in mining and quarrying applications, the Mercedes-Benz Arocs 3336K/36 can transport up to 18 000 kg, or approximately 10 to 11 cubic metres of material in off-road conditions.
Its combination of a favourable power-to-weight ratio, excellent stability and superior manoeuvrability allows operators to maintain high productivity levels, even on steep ramps and in fast-paced production environments. Whether moving rock, aggregate, soil or construction materials, the Mercedes-Benz Arocs 3336K/36 delivers the versatility and performance required on demanding job sites.
Mercedes-Benz Arocs 3236B/51: Maximising Payload on the Road
For operations focused on bulk material transport, the Mercedes-Benz Arocs 3236B/51 offers an efficient solution for hauling sand, aggregate and hot asphalt.
Purpose-built for builders’ merchants and road-building applications, this lightweight tipper can legally carry up to 20 000 kg or approximately 11 cubic metres capacity when fitted with a lightweight aluminium body.
The Mercedes-Benz Arocs 3236B/51 is engineered primarily for on-road operations, where low tare mass and high payload capacity translate into improved efficiency and profitability. While the vehicle can venture off-road for loading and unloading activities, it is not intended for heavy construction or mining applications. Instead, its strength lies in transporting large volumes of material quickly, economically and within legal road transport requirements.
Mercedes-Benz Arocs 4152K/51: High-Capacity Productivity for Long Hauls
Where maximum productivity and larger payload requirements are the priority, the Mercedes-Benz Arocs 4152K/51 raises the bar.
Designed for road building, heavy construction, mining and quarrying applications, this robust tipper chassis can carry approximately 16 cubic metres, in off-road environments. When operated with a trailer, payload capacity can be up to 36 000 kg.
Offering higher productivity than the Mercedes-Benz Arocs 3336K in comparable applications, the Mercedes-Benz Arocs 4152K/51 is ideally suited to longer-haul operations where moving greater volumes over greater distances delivers operational advantages. While its larger dimensions mean it is less manoeuvrable than a three-axle tipper, its Gross Combination Mass (GCM) rating makes it particularly effective in truck-and-pup trailer configurations.
This capability makes the Mercedes-Benz Arocs 4152K/51 an excellent choice for transporting road-building materials, aggregates and minerals over extended distances, especially where side-tipper operations are impractical.
Mercedes-Benz Arocs 3336/48: Versatility Across Multiple Industries
The Mercedes-Benz Arocs 3336/48 is a highly versatile and dependable 6×4 rigid vehicle designed to serve both distribution and construction applications. Built to perform reliably in on-road environments while retaining the capability to operate in light off-road conditions, the Mercedes-Benz Arocs 3336/48 offers operators exceptional flexibility across a wide range of industries.
With a legal payload of up to 16 000 kg, including the weight of the body and associated equipment, the vehicle is ideally suited to applications such as water tankers, concrete pumps, compactor and waste management operations, skip loaders, hook lifts, drop-side bodies with or without cranes, livestock transportation and beverage distribution.
A key advantage of the Mercedes-Benz Arocs 3336/48 is its robust chassis design and modular layout, which simplifies body mounting and allows for easy adaptation to specialised applications. The vehicle is also supplied with standard preparation for a split-shaft PTO, enabling seamless integration of auxiliary equipment such as concrete pumps, drilling machinery and vacuum tanker systems. Combining durability, flexibility and ease of body installation, the Mercedes-Benz Arocs 3336/48 is a dependable solution for operators seeking a multi-purpose vehicle capable of delivering productivity across a variety of demanding transport and construction environments.
