steering axle trailers

Why choose a steering axle trailer?

A standard semi-trailer with fixed axles is perfectly fine for long trips on the highway. But as soon as you have to unload in the city center, on tight industrial estates, or on hard-to-reach construction sites, a steering axle semi-trailer offers a huge advantage.

Because the rear axle (or sometimes multiple axles) steers along with the movement of the tractor unit, the turning circle of the complete truck combination becomes significantly smaller. A steering axle trailer follows the track of the tractor unit much more accurately. This not only ensures that you can maneuver much easier and without damage, but it also drastically reduces tire wear and friction on the road surface. This saves you a lot of maintenance costs in the long run.

Our range of trailers with a steering axle

Because a steered axle is a requirement in various transport sectors, you will find this technology on different types of trailers in our stock. Think of:

• Low loaders and semi-low loaders: Indispensable for the safe and maneuverable transport of heavy and large machinery.
• Tipper trailers: For taking tight turns at narrow construction and sand extraction sites.
• Curtainsider trailers: For distribution work that often requires loading and unloading in urban areas.
• Refrigerated trailers: Ideal for supplying supermarkets with difficult loading docks.
• Walking floor trailers: Perfect for accurately reversing and unloading bulk goods at hard-to-reach farms or in tight recycling halls.
