Dear Sir/Madam,
Hope you have a nice day!
This is Ada from Shandong TITAN Vehicle Co., Ltd..
Today, I want to share several important tips you should consider when buying a lowbed trailer. These tips can help you buy the high quality trailers, so as to reduce the repair frequency and re-purchase rate, and increase the service life of trailer.
TITAN 3 Axle Lowbed Trailer
1. Main beam
The main beam is one of the most important weight bearing parts, and plays an important role in the whole service life of a lowbed trailer. The steel materials, specifications and bearing capacity should be taken into consideration when buying a lowbed trailer.
The main beam of Titan low bed trailer is made of HG60 high strength structural steel. HG60 steel has a yield strength of ≥620Mpa, which is more durable and stronger than ordinary steel. Its bearing capacity is 5 times greater than the trailers made of Q345 steel.
TITAN low bed trailer main beam adopts a height of 500mm and a thickness of 12mm. The thickness of upper plate is 20mm, the thickness of lower plate is 20mm and the width of upper and lower plate is 200mm. So it is very strong and durable.
2. Side beam
Side beams play an important role in a lowbed trailer’s bearing capacity. Steel material, steel size, bearing capacity and anti-bumpiness performance should be considered.
TITAN side beam adopts "H" shape design and is welded with high strength steel T700. The height is 300mm, width is 140mm and thickness is upper 8, middle 6 and lower 8mm. Our material is twice the bearing capacity of other steel. So, it will not deform after ten years of use. Anti-bumpiness performance is increased by 3 times.

3.Crossbeam
The firmness of crossbeams has an important influence on the lowbed trailer’s service life.
TITAN crossbeams and Inclined Supports are both made of high-strength steel HG60 with a thickness of 6mm. These inclined Supports effectively connect the main beams and side beams together into a whole. Bearing capacity and anti-bumpiness performance are greatly enhanced, and the service life is more than 10 years.
Thanks to the special design, the main beams are not hollowed out, which greatly enhance the trailer’s loading capacity and service life.
4. Ladder/ramp
Ladders are important accessory for lowbed trailer, its bearing capacity and materials are significant.
TITAN’s strong and durable ladder is formed by welding high strength steel plate H60. there are four vertical plates, which has strong bearing capacity and can effectively guarantee the passing of heavy excavator and other heavy equipment without deformation or damage to the spring ladders. The service life is more than five years. We use high-quality spring, so one person can easily operate ladder’s rise and fall.
PK: Most of other factories use U-steel or even finished square tube to make the ladder. Due to the insufficient strength and poor quality material, the ladders are easy to break and deform.
