A steel deck truck scale uses a fabricated steel weighbridge as the driving surface. It’s lighter than concrete, faster to install, and easy to relocate, and with proper corrosion protection it delivers a long, accurate service life. ScaleTex steel deck systems are built on heavy structural members and proven shear-beam sensing.
Our flagship steel deck model is the low-profile pitless TP Series: 12″ wide-flange I-beams under a 3/8″ diamond-plate deck, with all surfaces sandblasted to white metal, including the underside, where steel decks usually start to fail.
Common applications
Aggregates & quarry
High cycle volume and loader point-loads in dusty, abrasive yards.
Scrap & recycling
Off-center, shock loads where accurate legal-for-trade weighing is revenue.
Agriculture & grain
Seasonal volume with the option to relocate between sites.
Logistics & trucking
Fast, accurate gross/tare checks to avoid overload fines.
Waste & transfer
Continuous hours where easy under-deck cleanout matters.
Manufacturing
Reliable inbound/outbound material verification.
Key benefits
- Lighter than concrete, with faster install and easier relocation
- Heavy structural members resist deflection and fatigue
- Open, serviceable design for under-deck access and cleanout
- Standard, serviceable double-ended shear-beam load cells, non-proprietary
- White-metal corrosion prep where steel decks fail first
- Available in low-profile pitless and portable configurations
- Lower up-front cost than a poured concrete deck
- Capacity / CLC configured to your trucks (to confirm)
Available configurations
Low-profile pitless
Above-grade deck for fast install and easy service (the TP Series).
Portable
Bulkheads, lifting lugs, and a welded subframe for relocatable use.
Heavy-duty upgrade
Extra structure for the most punishing point-load and shock environments.
Steel deck vs. concrete deck
| Factor | Steel deck | Concrete deck |
|---|---|---|
| Install speed | Faster (no deck cure) | Slower (pour & cure) |
| Relocation | Easier (lighter) | Difficult |
| Up-front cost | Typically lower | Typically higher |
| Mass / feel | Lighter | Heavy, solid |
| Corrosion focus | Underside protection critical | Rebar & surface sealing |
