AirSTEEL
Further Information
The AirSTEEL option package is an innovative combination of design, manufacturing techniques and components. Together, these can significantly reduce the tare weight of a range of Freighter trailers without sacrificing durability.
The most visible part of this options are the distinctive "cut-outs" in the chassis flanges. Yet careful engineering of the chassis rails ensures that there is no reduction in strength. Other features of the AirSTEEL can include aluminium flooring and alloy wheels.
Operators can gain payload increases of up to 1.3 tonnes - and that can mean an extra pallet in many cases.
Features and Benefits
- The AirSTEEL achieves up to a 23% reduction in the tare weight of a 45ft flat top trailer, weighing in at less than 5 tonnes.
- Provides increased payload of up to 1.3 tonnes depending on the model and specification.
- Extra payload means increased profits.
- Lower tare weight means reduced fuel consumption when not fully loaded.
