Detailed Description
Robust Structure & High Load Capacity
The ZW Group 12.5m Flatbed Semi Trailer is constructed using premium High Tensile Q345B / T700 Steel, ensuring the main beam is lightweight yet incredibly strong. The 4-axle configuration significantly distributes the weight, allowing for a stable 50-ton to 80-ton payload (customizable) without compromising safety. Our "I" beam design features a 500mm height with reinforced upper (14mm) and lower (16mm) plates, making this flat deck truck trailer resistant to twisting and deformation even under maximum load. The vibrant Orange polyurethane paint provides excellent visibility and corrosion resistance, ensuring your vehicle looks professional for years.
Premium Components & Running Gear
To ensure reliability on rough road conditions, we equip our trailers with top-tier components. The running gear features 3 heavy-duty axles (compatible with renowned brands like FUWA, BPW, or ZW proprietary axles) paired with a reinforced mechanical suspension system and 10-layer leaf springs. The trailer rides on wear-resistant 12R22.5 tubeless tires, designed to dissipate heat and provide superior traction. For cargo security, the 3mm diamond plate platform prevents slippage, and 12 sets of high-quality twist locks allow for the secure transport of one 40ft container or two 20ft containers simultaneously.
Quality Manufacturing & Global Logistics
Every ZW Group flatbed trailer undergoes a rigorous manufacturing process, including automatic submerged arc welding for a seamless, defect-free structure. Before delivery, we perform strict load testing and laser alignment to guarantee precise dimensions. We offer flexible shipping solutions to reduce your landed cost: the trailer can be shipped via Bulk Cargo, Ro-Ro ship, or Container (with a cut-tail option for easy reassembly). Each unit is polished with wax or covered with a waterproof tarpaulin to prevent seawater corrosion during ocean transit.

Product FAQ
Q1: Can this 4-axle flatbed trailer carry both 20ft and 40ft containers?
A: Yes, absolutely. It is equipped with 12 sets of container twist locks, allowing you to safely transport either one 40ft container or two 20ft containers simultaneously.
Q2: What is the advantage of a 4-axle configuration over a standard 3-axle trailer?
A: The 4-axle design provides better weight distribution, which protects the road surface and allows for a higher legal payload in many regions. It also offers superior stability when hauling heavy, concentrated loads like steel coils or machinery.
