Skeleton Semi Trailer 2/3/4 Axles 20ft 40ft Container Chassis

The skeleton semi trailer is a steel container chassis built to move 20ft and 40ft boxes between ports, depots and rail yards. Fleet operators and importers choose it because the bare frame keeps tare weight down and puts the payload on the container, not on the deck. It ships brand-new and is configured to your axle count before delivery.

Why It Works On Site

• 50T load capacity — carries dense, fully loaded containers without adding structural weight to the tractor.
• 2/3/4 axle options with 13T or 16T ratings — match the chassis to your route permits and gross weight rules.
• Mechanical or air suspension — air suits fragile cargo and long highway runs, mechanical suits mixed and rough yard work.
• 28t heavy duty landing gear — keeps the frame stable when the tractor is dropped and the box is loaded.
• Valve brake system — gives the driver consistent, predictable stopping control with a loaded box.
• King pin in 2″ (50mm) or 3.5″ (90mm) — fits the fifth wheel already on your tractor fleet.

Where It Is Used

These chassis work the short and long legs of container logistics: port to warehouse shuttles, depot repositioning, rail head transfers and regional distribution runs. The frame accepts standard 20ft and 40ft containers, so one trailer covers import, export and empty-repositioning work.

Terminal operators also use them for yard shuffling, where a simple steel frame and a strong landing gear set matter more than deck fittings.

Customisation Before Delivery

Axle count, suspension type, tyre size and king pin size are all settled at order confirmation. Tyre options include 11.00r20, 12r22.5, 315 and 385, and the axle rating is chosen from 13T or 16T units. Confirm the combination you need when you request the quotation.
