For more than 50 years, Thurman Scale has been providing top quality weighing equipment for industries including Agricultural, Mining, Timber, and Steel. Thurman Scale specializes in off-road type vehicle scales. Off road or on, Thurman Scales are built to the highest standards in the industry as a direct result of years of truck weighing experience in demanding workplace environments. Many of these models offer traditional rocker column designs or our rugged and accurate double ended shearbeam load cells.

8100 & 8120 series MECHANICAL STEEL DECK TRUCK SCALES

Mechanical Steel Deck Portable Truck Scales known for easy mobility and lasting reliability. Uniquely designed truck scales, models 8100 and 8120 combine the proven reliable performance of a mechanical lever system with a rigid, welded steel weighbridge structure. These models have been field proven for years in demanding industries such as mining road construction, quarries, logging, steel mills and landfills.

MODEL 8100 (Portable/Steel Deck)
The Model 8100 motor truck scale can be installed as a
portable scale (one that can be relocated easily at a later
time), or as a permanent installation. For a permanent
installation, pour the concrete piers and approaches,
install the scale by locating and bolting the portability
frame to the piers connecting the backbone pipes, then
calibrate. In portable installations, concrete approaches
are not required*; simply ramp fill material against the
(optional) bulk-heads for the approach ramps. The
remaining installation is identical to that of a permanent
installation.

MODEL 8120 (Pit Scale/Steel Deck)
For permanent pit-type installations, the Model 8120
steel deck truck scale can provide years of reliable and
accurate service. The weighbridge consists of factory
assembled modules. Each module connects to the next
module through a unique step-hinge arrangement. This
eliminates the need for field welding and on-site fit-up.
