Steel self-dumping hoppers withstand sharp or rugged materials, such as metal scrap and construction debris. They are also more heat resistant than plastic hoppers.

Low-profile steel self-dumping hoppers have shorter sides than standard hoppers to make loading easier. They can also be placed under machinery to capture parts in production facilities. Steel is a durable material that withstands sharp or rough materials, such as metal scrap and construction debris. They are also more heat resistant than plastic hoppers.

Low-profile stainless steel self-dumping hoppers have shorter sides than standard hoppers to make loading easier. They can also be placed under machinery to capture parts in production facilities. Stainless steel is less likely than steel to rust in hot, humid, or wet environments. Stainless steel is resistant to fire and high temperatures. It's often used in food manufacturing as it's easier to clean and won't affect taste.
