Container superlink trailer is specially designed to carry various cargo containers. container chassis includes 20, 40, 45 foot and other types. It is dedicated to transporting containers. It contains two kinds of skeletal trailer for long distance transportation and terminal trailer for port transportation. Most industries transport finished products in large containers and hence the need for container trailers. Containers remain one of the safest ways of transporting fragile and sensitive goods.
1. Application
If you use the trailer to transport not only container, but also some other cargo, it is better to choose the flatbed trailer type. The container chassis is only used for container. Should your work require loading and offloading at certain inclined positions, then the container tilt trailer would be the best choice for you.
2. Price
Cost is also an important factor to consider in your choice of a trailer. If all you need is a simple trailer for a simple application, it wouldn’t be wise to choose the container tilt trailer. The container tilt type trailer has a higher price than the rest. This is primarily due to its advanced lifting system. A flatbed or a container chassis will do.
3.Weight Capacity Requirements
All these semi trailers can carry a considerable amount of weight. However, the 2 axles / 3 axles container chassis trailer is of much help when weight considerations are to be made. Its construction has primarily been made to provide a chassis that can help you carry high weight containers. Most importantly, this can be adjusted to meet your desired conditions of maneuverability, loading, offloading and axle spacing.
4. Number of Axles
Based on the amount of cargo to carry, trailer considerations can be made looking at the number of axles for each trailer. They could be 2 axles or 3 axles. Don’t expect one with more than 3 axles because a container’s max weight capacity is 30 tons. For instance, the flatbed trailer structure has a capability of supporting a number of wheel axle assemblies at different positions along the trailer length.
The Frame is the main load bearing part, which is composed of a beam, a side beam, a beam, a floor, and a suspension.
The thickness of the beam part depends on whether the thickness is an international standard. The international standard for the frame of the skeleton car is 14/8/16 mm. The material of the steel plate in the middle of the beam is Q345B or manganese steel with a thickness of 8mm. Many unreliable suppliers will use 6mm Thickness beam slabs to save costs, but the carrying capacity was reduced by 26%. The international standard thickness of the middle part of the beam must be 8mm.
Locks, 40 foot container trailer is equipped with 12 sets of locks, which can be used to transport a 40 foot container or two 20 foot containers, or a 20 foot container alone.
TITAN main beam made of Q345 high strength steel has higher bearing capacity and service life of more than 10 years, TITAN interlink trailer uses automatic arc-submerging welding method to weld the main beam, there isn’t interface between the steel plate，it can ensure the intergrated main beam, so the main beam is more stronger and more durable.
Axle
The axles of the used skeletal trailer are divided into three types: 13 ton axles, 13 ton axles + 16 ton brake system axles, 16 ton axles.
The axles of the TITAN container trailer truck are 13 ton axles + 16 ton brake system axles, the axle of TITAN has 9 years of experience in producing quality, with better bearing capacity and good braking effect Other plants use axles with 13 ton brake systems.
Tire
The container chassis uses a vacuum tire with better heat dissipation performance, the model is 12R22.5.
The TITAN Skeleton trailer uses factory-made, wear-resistant tires. On Chinese highways, TITAN tires can reach more than 300,000 kilometers.
The suspension of the TITAN combo chassis is made of special high-strength rigid steel, 70mm center balance pin, Other factories use light suspension, the pin is only 45mm, the service life is short, it will cause abnormal wear.
The suspension is reinforced at the front and rear, left and right. The separate road conditions for Africa are to meet the requirements of dirt road surface and poor road conditions.
Braking system, effective braking, fast braking response, braking distance reduced by more than 5m The brake system of Wabco can also be selected.
TITAN interlink trailer uses polyurethane paint, high adhesion, high chroma, beautiful color.
TITAN offers the South African market reliable trailers. Years of experience has seen the company producing trailers that meet international standards in their design and performance.
