Benefits include lower tare weight, increased durability, easier repairs and maintenance as well as improved aesthetics
The main improvement is a high strength + low weight aluminium head and tail board. Built using double hollow section extruded panels, the following benefits are realised:
- Extended durability. The aluminium will not weather or corrode, a common issue with fibre glass and steel.
- Reduced cracks and holes. The hollow sections can absorb dents and ensure the outer wall is not damaged, crack and leak.
- Faster and simpler repairs. In case of accident damage, the modular panels can be easily replaced. Only the damaged sections need replacing, not the entire structure.
- Better and longer lasting aesthetics. The aluminium adds a striking look to the rig and will continue to look great for the life of the trailer.
These improvements are now a standard on our entire range of tautliners making them the best value for money in the market.
