Features & Benefits
Superior Main Beam. Lower Maintenance
The two-piece, welded main beam design eliminates the need for mechanical fasteners by welding on the neutral axis of the main beam where bending stress is minimal. Unlike bolted designs, this main beam has no fasteners that eventually loosen and lead to additional maintenance.
Greater Flexibility. More Loaded Miles
The Lock-Rite® multi-position tie down system offers flexibility to either tie down narrow loads to the center of the trailer or to the outside siderails. This also allows the use of either straps or chains to secure loads.
In addition, this flatbed comes standard with five additional stub crossmembers to support steel coil hauls. An optional full-length coil package is available
Less Weight. More Freight
Floor crossmembers weld to the main beam, side rail, and floor to form a super stiff structure, eliminating the need for knee braces for a lighter weight trailer and less maintenance.
