45ft Skeleton Semi Trailer
Lightweight 420mm beam | 45ft / 40ft / 2x20ft container positions
MOQ: 1 unit | Delivery: 15-30 days | OEM / ODM / CKD / SKD available
Configurations
Product Introduction
The 45ft skeleton semi trailer uses a lightweight 420 mm main beam with 10/5/10 mm plates, cutting tare weight while keeping 30 – 80 tons capacity – the right tool for high-cube 45ft boxes on long highway runs.
Twelve twist locks cover 45ft, 40ft and dual-20ft positions, so one trailer serves your whole container fleet. For heavier port work, choose the 500 mm beam 4-axle option.
Applications
- Container transport: 1×40ft, 2×20ft combinations.
- Port and terminal transfer: high-frequency short hauls.
- Shipping lines and leasing: CKD/SKD assembly cooperation available.

Features & Benefits
- 42 tough ribs design ensures safety and carrying capacity.
- Anti-tire-abrasion suspension prevents tire offset after loading – a common skeleton trailer pain point.
- Lighter than flatbed: skeletal structure saves 800-1,200 kg tare weight vs flatbed, one more container of payload in gross-weight-limited markets.
- Electrophoresis painting – corrosion resistance for over 10 years, critical for coastal port duty.
Manufacturing & Quality
- Automatic submerged-arc welding on vertical beams.
- Shot blasting on the integral frame removes welding stress.
- FEA (Finite Element Analysis) on vehicle structure.
- High strength full thickness steel, titanium content 0.98‰.
- National level welding supervision – 30 minutes per process longer.
