3 Axle Gooseneck Skeleton Semi Trailer 40 Foot 50T

The Skeleton Semi Trailer is a gooseneck container chassis built for 40 foot container hauling. It suits fleet operators and procurement managers who need a dedicated container semi trailer with a 50T load capacity. The gooseneck design lowers the deck over the king pin, which helps keep the centre of gravity low on long container runs.

Why It Works On Site

• 50T load capacity lets you plan around heavy 40 foot container loads without adding extra support equipment.
• 2, 3 or 4 axles at 13T or 16T lets you match axle count and axle rating to your route weight limits and local bridge rules.
• Mechanical or air suspension gives you a choice between low-maintenance mechanical setup and air ride for smoother container handling.
• 28t heavy duty landing gear supports the trailer when it is dropped and reloaded in the yard.
• Dual line braking system gives the towing tractor a two-circuit air connection for controlled braking under load.
• 2 inch (50mm) or 3.5 inch (90mm) king pin lets you match the trailer to the fifth wheel already in your fleet.

Where It Is Used

This container semi trailer is used for port-to-warehouse container moves, rail terminal shuttles and long-haul container runs. It carries 20ft and 40ft containers, so fleets can switch between a single 40 foot box and two 20 foot boxes on the same chassis.

It also fits depot work, empty container repositioning and steady container line-haul where a dedicated skeleton frame is faster to load than a flatbed.

Customisation Before Delivery

Axle count and axle rating, suspension type, tyre size and king pin size are all selected at order confirmation. Tyre options include 11.00r20, 12r22.5, 315 and 385 sizes. Tell us the fifth wheel size and the route weight limits, and the build sheet is fixed before production starts.
