The LeeBoy HB4T Hot Box is an all-in-one road maintenance workstation designed specifically for municipalities and paving contractors to simplify pothole patching and utility cut repairs. It solves the costly industry problems of asphalt cooling and material waste by using a powerful 105,000 BTU Beckett diesel burner and a triple-wall, 2-inch insulated hopper—constructed of rugged 11-gauge and 12-gauge steel—to keep 4 tons of plant-mix hot and workable all day, while also reclaiming and warming salvaged cold mix back to optimal working temperatures.
Contractors benefit from drastically reduced material loss, fewer trips to the asphalt plant, and a highly organized mobile setup featuring a lockable storage compartment, a 5-tool holder, and integrated compactor stowage on a heavy-duty chassis equipped with dual 8,000 lb. axles and electric brakes. Daily operation is streamlined through a user-friendly DM430 digital keypad controller powered by a high-capacity 12.8V 280AH lithium battery system, alongside a heavy-duty, single scissor-style dump hoist operated via a magnetic wired remote. For efficient asphalt discharge, the unit features dual bearing-mounted loading doors and a highly functional unloading setup complete with a multi-position guillotine cutoff door, a built-in static chute, and a seamless shovel ramp.
What makes the LeeBoy HB4T uniquely versatile is its highly customizable design that allows contractors to configure the trailer to their exact job site requirements. For streamlined material handling, the unit can be equipped with either a manual or electric loading Davit crane to ease heavy lifting. Job site cleanup and maintenance are simplified with the addition of a wet storage box and a pressurized washdown system featuring an electric pump and hose reel. Roadway communication is bolstered with highly visible traffic control tools like an arrow stick or a full arrow board, while standard crew readiness is supported by a 5 lb. fire extinguisher and heavy-duty wheel chocks. Finally, crews can add a matching LeeBoy single-direction plate compactor, which fits perfectly in the trailer's dedicated basket, along with a spare tire equipped with a dedicated trailer mount.
