40ft 3 Axle 60T Container Skeleton Semi Trailer

The 2/3/4 Axle Skeleton Container Truck Semi Trailer is a steel chassis built to carry 20ft and 40ft containers on road and port routes. Fleet operators and importers choose it for a 60T load capacity and a frame that keeps twist-locks aligned under repeated lifting. It suits high-cycle container hauling where the chassis, not the cargo box, sets the service life.

Why It Works On Site

• 60T load capacity — carries loaded 20ft and 40ft boxes without the frame flexing at the twist-lock mounts.
• 13-ton axle brand — spreads gross weight across the axle set so tyre and bearing wear stays even on long runs.
• Mechanical or air suspension — mechanical for simple maintenance, air for smoother rides with fragile or high-value cargo.
• King pin in 2.0 inch (50mm) or 3.5 inch (90mm) — matches the fifth wheel already on your tractor unit.
• Yahua brand 28T landing gear — holds a loaded chassis steady during coupling, uncoupling and yard parking.
• Relay valve brake system with hydraulic brake — gives predictable, balanced braking when the trailer is running empty or fully loaded.

Where It Is Used

This skeleton semi trailer fits terminal-to-warehouse shuttles, port drayage and inland container corridors. Operators drop a box at a rail ramp in the morning and pull a loaded unit back the same day, so the chassis works on tight turnaround cycles.

It also handles heavy equipment machinery transport when a flat rack or open-top box is mounted. Steel coils, machinery and palletised goods move on the same frame, which keeps one trailer type in service across mixed freight.

Customisation Before Delivery

Axle count, suspension type, king pin size and colour are all settled at order confirmation. Tell the supplier whether the fleet runs mechanical or air suspension and which fifth wheel size is standard on your tractors. Colour is customer optional, so livery can match the rest of the fleet. Final configuration and pricing are confirmed at quotation.

Buyer Questions

Which container sizes does the chassis take?

It is built to transport 20ft and 40ft containers. Confirm the exact combination you plan to run when you request the quote.

Can the suspension be changed after ordering?

Suspension is chosen before build, with mechanical and air options listed. Lock the choice in at order confirmation so the chassis is built to your fleet standard.

What should I check on the tractor unit?

Match the king pin size, offered in 2.0 inch (50mm) or 3.5 inch (90mm), to your fifth wheel. The brake system uses a relay valve with hydraulic brake, so confirm compatibility at quotation.
