Aluminum Gooseneck and Bumperpull Trailers

Aluminum does not mean light-duty when it comes to trailers. An aluminum trailer can carry the same amount and yet last up to three times as long as a correspondingly rated steel trailer.

You might have run into trailer manufacturers who just beefed up their steel trailers and used the same methods and blueprints to build an aluminum trailer. That’s a mistake.

Aluminum doesn’t flex the way steel does, so any welds will be put under a lot of strain. And unlike steel welds, aluminum welds will never be as strong after they crack, no matter how much you reweld. So why is aluminum more durable?

Durable Aluminum Flatbed Trailers

EBY only manufactures aluminum trailers, and they’ve been doing it for eighty years. Instead of welding their joints, they use huck bolts, the method that semi manufacturers use. This allows for joints that flex and takes the stress away from joints. EBY’s experience with building semi trailers, cattle trailers, and grain trailers makes them the right manufacturer for aluminum gooseneck trailers.

Since aluminum doesn’t corrode, that means these trailers can last 25-30 years, constantly on the road. The lifespan of a steel trailer is nothing like that. Steel trailers will max out at about ten years, especially if you’re driving it in ice and snow. A well-built aluminum trailer costs more, but it delivers enough to make the investment well worth it. EBY has thought through all the details, down to the quality of toolbox latches. Their gooseneck flatbed ramps are lightweight and durable. Their fasteners are made of tough stainless steel, and any gusset plates are hot-dip galvanized, for extra strength where it counts.

Aluminum Means Light-Weight

Aluminum also helps reduce a trailer’s weight, so that you can haul a bigger payload without exceeding the 26,000 lb. limit for non-CDL drivers. Again, EBY also pays close attention to details. Instead of using standard tubing, they custom extrude every aluminum piece on the trailer, so that there won’t be any extra weight that’s not helping to carry your load.

EBY aluminum gooseneck trailers come in two series. There’s the 16k series, which is lighter but still long-lasting, and the 25k series, which is built like a bull. The 16k trailers come with rubber torsion axles, and the 25k trailers come standard with hutch adjustable (semi-grade) suspension. A 25k trailer that’s 40′ long could weight 2000 lbs. less than the same size of steel trailer.

Air Ride for Gooseneck Trailers

The EBY 25k trailers can even have their sturdy suspension system upgraded to air ride suspension for even better performance. Air ride will make your load ride smoother, with significantly less vibration and fatigue on your cargo. Plus, if you’re a hotshot driver, air ride will give you the option of accepting a broader range of loads, since a lot of shippers want their loads to ride smoother and will require air ride operators. Besides, air ride just takes away a lot of the normal wear and tear on your trailer that comes through daily use.

Everybody loves these trailers, so we might not have one in stock, but you can order one with us today!
