Key Features

• Universal ISO Compatibility: Accepts 20ft, 40ft and dual 20ft container arrangements through ISO-standard twist locks for fast, secure loading.
• Premium Anti-Corrosion Finish: Multi-stage surface treatment—sandblasting, primer, and polyurethane topcoat—provides strong UV, scratch and salt-spray resistance suited to port and coastal use.
• Heavy-Duty Axle System: Three high-strength axles (selectable FUWA, BPW or ZW Group) support a rated payload range of 40–60 tons with ABS-compatible braking options.
• Durable Tires & Rims: Standard fitment 12R22.5 or 315/80R22.5 tubeless radials on robust steel rims; customer-selectable brands to match operating profiles.
• Reinforced Suspension: Mechanical multi-leaf spring suspension or optional air suspension available for improved ride and cargo protection.
• Structural Integrity: Q345B mainbeam, precision-welded gooseneck and kingpin, reinforced cross-beams and anti-skid floor plate for mixed cargo handling.

Technical Specifications

Applications

This trailer is tailored for container shipping lines, port hauliers, freight forwarders, and general cargo operators. Typical applications include:

• Intermodal container transport between ports, rail yards and distribution centers.
• Transport of bulk packaged goods, timber, steel sections and machinery requiring a flat, secure deck.
• Short-sea and coastal operations where salt spray resistance is critical.

Performance and Value

ZW Group’s design philosophy emphasizes low tare weight and high payload efficiency to improve per-trip economics. The structural layout and high-strength materials reduce deformation risk under concentrated loads, while durable coatings minimize repainting cycles in corrosive environments. Operators benefit from reduced maintenance frequency, predictable lifecycle costs, and strong residual values—delivering measurable savings across fleet operations.

Quality and Support

Manufacturing follows ISO/CE-compliant procedures with controlled material sourcing and automated fabrication steps. Key quality measures include CNC cutting for precise component geometry, robotic and manual welding overseen by experienced inspectors, and a 200+ point inspection before dispatch. Each unit undergoes static load testing, dynamic road trials, brake efficiency checks, and anti-fatigue evaluation to validate long-term performance under continuous use.

ZW Group provides technical documentation, spare parts lists, and optional SKD/CKD packaging with detailed assembly manuals to support overseas commissioning. Dedicated after-sales channels and 24/7 technical response reduce downtime and protect asset value in service.
