PACK MULE VS K-TEC

K-Tec Delivery Carts v. Pack Mule Delivery Carts

FeaturePack MuleK-TecWhy it matters

Load Capacity (standard wheels)

2000 lbs.

1500 lbs.

With standard specs, Pack Mule gets more done per trip.

Deck

Single sheet, 10-gauge steel with side-to-side lateral supports and heavy-duty frame.

Lighter 13-gauge deck without frame.

The heavier duty single-sheet deck, fully supported side-to-side means that your cargo is more secure and your trailer is less likely to have a deck failure.

Shelf Supports

Welded metal. 33% thicker than K-Tec’s.

Thinner bent sheet metal supports

Pack Mule’s stronger shelf supports make your shelf-loaded cargo more secure, reducing the possibility of cargo loss.

Vertical Members

Capped, two bolts per vertical member.

Uncapped, single bolt per vertical member.

Pack Mule caps the raw metal edges of the vertical members to prevent injury and damage to cargo during loading. It uses twice the number of bolts to increase stability.

Wheels

Automotive-grade tapered bearings. Sealed bearings with protective cover.

Roller bearings

Pack Mule’s automotive grade tapered bearings are designed to work better and longer than roller bearings, and the heavier-duty wheel construction will stand up to heavy use.

Add-on Shelves

Available any time — with or after the order. Easy bolt-on installation. Four-corner support.

Add-on shelves are not available.

If your needs change, Pack Mule makes it easy to accommodate them. The easy-to-install bolt-on shelves helps you do more with the trailer.

Warranty

2-Year Warranty

Pack Mule provides the industry’s only three-year warranty. And it has no hours limitations.

Delivery Time

Two weeks or less.

Not published.

How we compare the Pack Mule to the competition.

We go to great lengths to make sure that the comparison between Pack Mule trailers and others are as fair and accurate as possible. It doesn’t serve anyone’s interests for those depending on the comparisons to be disappointed. Basically, here’s how we do them:

  1. We purchase the competitor trailer through authorized channels, usually a dealer. In most cases we asked for what the competitor considered standard configuration.
  2. The competitor trailer is tested alongside the Pack Mule in our plant. It may not be exactly like your environment, but it’s a lot closer than relying on ad copy.
  3. Wherever possible, we use the specifications on the machine we purchased. When we need additional specs, we use the ones published on the competitor’s web site or published in their user manuals.
  4. We frequently check to see if anything has changed. If it has, we change the comparison. Or if the competitor informs us that something has changed, we change the comparison.
  5. We back the comparison up with on-site demos. If you’re currently using another manufacturer’s trailer, we’ll provide a Pack Mule for you to do your own comparison.
