Frequently Asked Questions
-
- Question 1: Can I tow the 16x8ft Tri-Axle Tipper with a standard 3.5T dual-cab ute?
-
- Answer: No. Because this trailer has a 4.4-tonne ATM, standard dual-cab utes (like a Hilux or Ranger) max out at 3,500kg braking capacity and cannot legally tow it at full capacity. You will require a heavy-duty pickup or light commercial truck rated for 4.5T towing.
-
- Question 2: What is the actual load capacity of this 16x8ft flat-top tipper?
-
- Answer: The trailer has a maximum legal payload capacity of 2,300 kg (2.3 Tonnes). This is calculated by taking the 4,400kg ATM rating and subtracting the heavy-duty structural tare weight of 2,100kg.
-
- Question 3: Can the 600mm mesh cage be easily removed?
-
- Answer: Yes. The 600mm high-volume mesh cage is completely removable, allowing you to quickly transition from an enclosed high-sided bulk material tipper to a completely flat, unobstructed deck surface for loading machinery and pallets.
