Detailed Description
The 2 Axle 40FT Skeletal Semi Trailer offers a flexible and efficient solution for transporting ISO standard containers across ports, yards, and inland logistics routes. Thanks to its open skeletal frame design, operators can load and unload containers quickly, improving turnaround efficiency in daily operations.
Moreover, the trailer features a 500 mm high main beam made from Q345 carbon steel, which enhances resistance to bending and torsion. As a result, the structure maintains consistent strength during long-distance hauling and repeated heavy-duty use.
In addition, two 13-ton axles from reliable Chinese brands work together with a mechanical suspension system to provide stable handling on highways and uneven roads. The 3 mm diamond steel platform further improves durability while reducing surface wear over time.
To ensure safe and practical operation, the trailer is equipped with eight 315/80R22.5 Triangle tires, a 50 mm bolt-in kingpin, and a 25-ton JOST landing gear. Furthermore, features such as a movable headboard, side stick pipes, and 12 container twist locks help secure containers effectively throughout transport.
Backed by over 10 years of export experience, ZW Group supports factory inspection and global shipment arrangements, making this skeletal semi trailer suitable for intermodal container transport and international freight operations.
