Key Features

Every component chosen for structural integrity, cargo security, and long-term operational economy.

Chassis & Structure

ST52 / S355J2+N STEELWELDED I-BEAM

The Backbone. Engineered to Last.

Welded I-beam mainframe fabricated from ST52 / S355J2+N high-strength structural steel — engineered to absorb the cyclic fatigue loads of daily heavy haulage without deformation.

355 MPa YIELD

High-Strength Steel Grade

ST52 / S355J2+N provides 355 MPa minimum yield strength, enabling a robust yet weight-efficient chassis that maximises payload capacity within legal gross vehicle weight limits.

PRECISION WELDED

I-Beam Mainframe Construction

Continuous I-beam longitudinal members welded with precision to tight fabrication tolerances — delivering a flat, true deck surface across the full 13.6 m platform length.

Axles & Suspension

AIR SUSPENSIONEBS BRAKING

Three Axles. Air Suspension. EBS.

Three-axle configuration distributes gross vehicle weight across six axle positions, keeping individual axle loads within European regulatory limits while maximising legal payload.

AIR SUSPENSION

Full Air Suspension

Air suspension on all three axles provides superior ride quality for fragile cargo and machinery, reduces dynamic load transfer, and protects road surfaces to comply with European axle load regulations.

EBS DRUM BRAKES

Electronic Braking System

EBS with drum brakes on all three axles delivers faster electronic brake response compared to conventional ABS, improving stopping distances and trailer stability under heavy load.

Loading & Cargo Securing

TWIST LOCKSLASHING RINGS

Secure Every Load.

ISO corner twist locks for 20 ft and 40 ft container transport, plus a full ring of heavy-duty recessed lashing rings for strap and chain securing of general cargo and machinery.

ISO STANDARD

ISO Twist Lock Fittings

Standard ISO corner fittings accept twist lock pins for 20 ft and 40 ft ISO containers, enabling direct container depot and port haulage without additional securing equipment.

FRONT HEADBOARD

Steel Headboard & Lashing Rings

Full-width steel headboard protects the tractor cab during emergency braking. Recessed lashing rings are positioned along both sides of the deck for strap, chain, and net securing of general cargo.

Surface Protection & Lighting

COATING

Industrial Paint System

Multi-coat industrial paint applied over SA 2.5 blast-prepared steel for maximum adhesion, corrosion resistance, and long service life in all weather conditions.

CUSTOM RAL

Customer-Specified Colour

Specify any RAL colour to match your fleet livery. Hot-dip galvanisation available as an upgrade for maximum long-term corrosion protection in harsh environments.

LED

Full LED Lighting Suite

Complete LED lighting system — rear combination lamps, side marker lamps, and licence plate illumination — fully compliant with European road regulations for commercial trailers.

Material & Engineering FAQs

What is Hardox steel and where is it used in trailers?

Hardox is a wear-resistant steel manufactured by SSAB, specifically designed for applications requiring exceptional abrasion resistance. Grades vary from 400 to 500 HBW.

Technical Details:Typical applications include dump truck bodies and loader buckets. Service life can be 3-5 times longer than conventional steel.

What are the welding requirements for high-strength steels?

High-strength steels require specialized welding procedures to maintain mechanical properties and prevent defects, including preheating for thicknesses > 20mm.

Technical Details:Welding procedures must be qualified according to EN ISO 15614. Heat input typically limited to 0.8-2.5 kJ/mm.
