How to identify the quality of Low bed trailers

Choosing a high-quality Low bed trailer is crucial for transportation business. So, how to identify the quality of Low bed trailers? This article will provide you with some practical identification methods to help you choose a satisfactory vehicle.

1. Look at the quality of steel

Steel is the skeleton of Low bed trailers, and its quality directly affects the durability and safety of the vehicle. The state stipulates that the thickness of steel is allowed to have a deviation of 10% up and down, which leaves some manufacturers room to "play edge ball". For example, for a 10mm steel plate, some manufacturers may use 9.1mm, while responsible brands will choose full or even thicker steel plates, such as 10.9mm. Although the thickness is not much different, it often reflects the attitude of different manufacturers and their requirements for quality. Therefore, when purchasing, be sure to carefully inquire about the thickness and material of the steel, and choose those brands that use full-thick steel plates.

2. Look at accessories and appearance

In addition to steel, the quality of accessories and the appearance of the vehicle are also important factors in measuring the quality of Low bed trailers. Without good accessories and beautiful appearance, it is difficult to convince experienced drivers that this is a good car. Imagine if the salesperson said, "My car is very good, but the accessories are not good and the appearance is ugly." This is obviously unreasonable. Therefore, when purchasing, carefully check every accessory of the vehicle, such as the hydraulic system, brake system, tires, etc., to ensure that they are all high-quality products. At the same time, the appearance of the vehicle should also be neat, beautiful, and without obvious defects.

3. Consider actual needs

When choosing a low-bed semi-trailer, you should choose according to your own transportation route, cargo situation and transportation distance. The one that suits you is the best, and blindly following the trend is not a wise choice. If you can't make up your mind, you can consult several factories specializing in the production of flatbed trucks, explain your transportation needs to them in detail, let them provide you with solutions, and then compare and choose the most suitable vehicle for you.

4. Pay attention to the size of the whole vehicle and the specifications of the longitudinal beam

The overall size of the vehicle is the basic indicator for measuring the performance of the low-bed semi-trailer, including the three parameters of length, width and height. Generally speaking, the length of a low-bed semi-trailer ranges from 13 meters to 13.75 meters, the width is 3 meters, and the height is 1.75 meters. Such a size design can not only meet the transportation needs, but also ensure the safety of driving.

The longitudinal beam specification is an important basis for measuring the carrying capacity of a low-bed semi-trailer. It is determined by multiple parameters such as height, upper wing plate, lower wing plate and web plate. There will be significant differences in the carrying capacity of longitudinal beams of different specifications, which is mainly reflected in the thickness of the upper and lower wing plates and web plates. Therefore, when purchasing, you should carefully inquire about the specific specifications of the longitudinal beam and choose a vehicle with strong carrying capacity.

5. Pay attention to other configurations

Other configurations of the semi-trailer, such as outriggers, synchronous valves, leaf springs, axles and tires, also have an important impact on the overall quality of the vehicle. When purchasing, these configurations can be flexibly selected according to personal needs and budget. It should be noted that good vehicle configurations are often complementary. For example, high-quality axles can significantly reduce long-term tire wear, while lightweight configurations such as aluminum alloy wheels can save considerable costs in daily transportation.

6. Understand different types of Low bed trailers

There are different types of Low bed trailers on the market, such as gooseneck Low bed trailers and special Low bed trailers. Low bed trailers with different axle numbers and tire sizes will also have different load capacities. When purchasing, choose the most suitable model and configuration according to your specific needs.

Conclusion

To identify the quality of Low bed trailers, it is necessary to comprehensively consider multiple aspects such as steel quality, accessories and appearance, actual needs, vehicle size and longitudinal beam specifications, other configurations, and different types of vehicles. I hope this article can help you be more comfortable when purchasing Low bed trailers and choose a high-quality and suitable transportation tool for yourself.
