Tandem Axle Trailers: Steel and Aluminum Models

Weight depends on construction material and configuration. Aluminum trailers are significantly lighter than steel equivalents. A typical 20 ft aluminum flatbed weighs approximately 2,500-3,500 lbs, while steel models range 3,500-5,000 lbs. Exact specifications available upon request.

Aluminum trailers offer lighter weight for improved fuel efficiency and higher payload capacity, plus superior corrosion resistance. Steel trailers provide greater durability for extreme heavy-duty applications and typically lower initial cost.

CDL requirements depend on gross vehicle weight rating and local regulations. Generally, trailers exceeding 26,001 lbs GVWR require a commercial driver's license. Contact your state DMV for specific requirements.

Air ride suspension provides smoother transport, reducing cargo damage and driver fatigue. It offers adjustable ride height, improved weight distribution, and better shock absorption compared to traditional spring suspension systems.

Regular maintenance includes brake inspections, tire rotation and pressure checks, bearing lubrication, light system testing, and structural integrity inspections. Aluminum trailers require less maintenance than steel but need regular cleaning to prevent oxidation.
