New Industrial Tilt Trailer Design

IT-I Series Advanced Standard Specifications

• Hitch area has been redesigned with a more user-friendly, integrated nose plate.
• Cylinder Lugs, the point where the cushion cylinders(s) attach to the crossmembers, the redesign incorporates additional structural integrity for cylinder crossmembers.
• Lighting – Dual stop, turn, taillights located on the rear of the fenders have been incorporated into the standard design, delivering ideal placement of the light system along with safeguarding it from damage when loading/unloading equipment.
• Tie Down Placement – D-rings that were once located on the topside rail behind the fender on the rear of the tilt deck are now located on the side of the of the trailer bed. This has been done so that the D-ring location is at the widest point of the deck providing operator’s ease of use when securing equipment.
• Operator friendly tilt deck latch design.
