More Features

 

All of the electrical wirings have been passed interiorly through the chassis tubes, and therefore are not exposed.

Unlike our light duty single axle trailers, all of our heavy duty 8×5 single axle trailers with brakes, come with longer step-up platforms along the sides. Ladder rack holders are welded to the sides so you can easily add a pair of ladder racks.

 

Additionally, all of our trailers come with extra supports on the chassis, which makes our trailers exceptionally durable and safe.

  • 50mm×50mm SHS Support Beams from Left to Right
  • 40mm×40mm SHS Support Beams from Front to Back

 

Mechanical Disc Brakes vs Hydraulic Brakes. Why do we use mechanical disc brakes?

  • Mechanical disc brakes are considered to be more reliable and simpler to maintain than hydraulic brakes.
  • They don’t require a complex hydraulic system because they use a cable to trigger the brake pads.
  • The braking intensity can also be easily adjusted.

 

Benefits of Single Axle Over Dual Axle Trailers

  1. Lower Cost: Generally less expensive to purchase and maintain.
  2. Lighter Weight: Easier to tow.
  3. Maneuverability: More agile, easier to handle in tight spaces.
  4. Simpler Maintenance: Fewer tyres, brakes, and bearings to maintain.

The choice between a tandem or single axle trailer depends on the intended use and the load to be carried.
