A Volvo walking floor wet kit is a complete hydraulic system designed to power walking floor trailers using your truck’s engine. It works by using a PTO to drive a hydraulic pump, which circulates oil through the system to operate the moving floor mechanism. This system uses a series of sliding slats to automatically load and unload materials without tipping the trailer. Walking floor setups are ideal for handling bulk loads safely and efficiently, especially in environments where tipping isn’t practical. At M W Hydraulics, part of M W Truck Parts, we supply high-quality walking floor wet kits for Volvo trucks built to deliver smooth operation and reliable performance in demanding working conditions.
Walking floor wet kits offer major advantages for Volvo trucks, particularly where controlled unloading and flexibility are required. Unlike tipping systems, walking floors allow you to unload on uneven ground or in restricted height areas, improving both safety and efficiency. They also provide a more controlled discharge, reducing the risk of load shifting or damage during unloading. These systems are commonly used in waste, recycling, biomass, and bulk haulage operations. With the right setup, Volvo trucks can operate walking floor trailers smoothly and consistently. At M W Hydraulics, part of M W Truck Parts, our wet kits are designed for durability and performance, helping you maximise uptime and productivity.
Choosing the correct Volvo walking floor wet kit depends on your truck specification, gearbox compatibility, and application requirements. Volvo trucks, including I-Shift models, require a compatible PTO and hydraulic setup to ensure proper operation. Walking floor systems typically need a high-flow configuration, often using a two-line or three-line wet kit to deliver consistent pressure and performance. You’ll also need to consider pump capacity, tank size, and duty cycle to suit your workload. At M W Hydraulics, part of M W Truck Parts, we help you select the right wet kit for your Volvo truck, ensuring a complete solution that offers reliable performance, easy installation, and long-term durability.
