Box Construction and Material Options
Steel body: The reinforced frame and corrugated panels form a durable enclosed structure for general freight.
Aluminum alloy body: This option offers a lower listed tare-weight range than the steel version. Compare the selected trailer's actual weight with the required payload.
Flooring and dimensions: Choose steel, wood, or wear-resistant composite flooring according to cargo and handling needs. Confirm internal loading space alongside overall dimensions before ordering.

Loading and Cargo Handling
Loading access: Rear double doors are listed, with an optional side door for alternative access. Check door clearance against pallets and handling equipment.
Cargo securing: Choose lashing rings or the optional track-and-sliding system based on the cargo restraint plan. Verify the rated capacity and placement of the securing points.
Optional lift gate: A hydraulic lift gate can assist loading where a dock or forklift is unavailable. Specify the required lifting capacity when requesting a quotation.

Chassis and Road Configuration
Axles and suspension: Two- to four-axle configurations are available, with FUWA/BPW options. Mechanical leaf spring suspension is listed as standard, with air suspension optional.
Braking system: The listed setup includes WABCO dual-circuit pneumatic braking with EBS, ABS, and RSP. Verify the installed components and their compatibility with the tractor.
Tractor connection: The available kingpin sizes are 2.0 inches and 3.5 inches. Confirm coupling requirements, axle loads, and tire configuration before production.

Typical Applications
General freight: Carries cartons, textiles, consumer goods, and automotive parts for warehouse transfers and distribution.
Industrial supplies: Transports packaged tools, machinery components, and manufacturing materials. Heavy or irregular loads require suitable floor capacity and restraints.
Furniture and appliances: The enclosed body accommodates household goods that need protection from direct exposure during transport. Secure items properly to limit movement.
Long-distance logistics: Supports regional freight, port transfers, and cross-border transport, subject to route and vehicle regulations.
