Product Introduction

The 3 axle extendable flatbed semi trailer is designed to carry long, oversized and concentrated loads. The telescopic flatbed trailer concept combines a high-tensile steel chassis with a reinforced gooseneck and side beams to maintain structural integrity while offering an extendable deck from 13,000mm up to 23,000mm. This extendable container flatbed trailer is available with manual or hydraulic extension systems and heavy‑duty locking pins for secure transport of wind blades, steel beams, pipes, prefabricated elements, and machinery.

Key Features

• Robust Extendable Chassis: Telescopic design extends from a 13m base to 23m maximum, with secure mechanical or hydraulic locking.
• Heavy-Duty Structural Steel: Main chassis and beams constructed from Q345B or T700 high-tensile steel for optimal load-bearing with controlled tare weight.
• Axles & Suspension Options: Configurable with FUWA, BPW, or ZW heavy-duty axles and selectable mechanical spring or air suspension for terrain-specific performance.
• Premium Braking System: WABCO or Haldex air brake systems with dual-line pneumatic circuit; ABS available for enhanced safety.
• Tire & Monitoring Choices: Standard 12R22.5 or 385/65R22.5 tyres, with optional TPMS for fleet safety management.
• Transport-Specific Configurations: Easily adapted as a wind blade transport trailer, steel beam transport flatbed, or extendable flatbed for oversized cargo.

Technical Specifications

Key technical details are summarized in the specification table above. Core highlights include a curb weight of approximately 9,950kg (±3%), multi-material options for chassis and beams (Q345 or T700), 3-axle configuration with JOST axle assemblies (options available), and a 24V electrical system with 7-core connector for intermodal compatibility.

Applications

This extendable flatbed is tailored for operations that require secure carriage of elongated and heavy components. Typical applications include:

• Wind turbine blade and tower section transport
• Steel beams, pipes, and long structural elements for construction and infrastructure projects
• Prefabricated modules and oversized industrial machinery
• Port-to-site long cargo movements and intermodal transfers

Performance and Value

Designed for heavy-duty cycles, the trailer emphasizes longevity and low lifecycle cost. Its optimized steel selection and welding processes provide high fatigue resistance and reduced maintenance frequency. The extendable platform increases operational flexibility, enabling a single trailer to replace multiple fixed-length assets—reducing capital expenditure and improving fleet utilization for long cargo transport flatbed activities.

Quality and Support

ZW Group applies strict quality controls: 100% ultrasonic weld inspection, static frame testing at 1.5× rated load, dynamic hydraulic simulation and road testing under demanding conditions. Customers benefit from a structured spare parts catalogue, 24/7 technical support, and optional maintenance packages to minimize downtime and maximize asset availability.
