8×5 Trailer Single Axle – Heavy Duty 1400kg ATM

If you’re searching for a dependable 8×5 trailer single axle, this heavy-duty model is built for work. Whether you’re a tradie or just need a tough single axle trailer for general use, this 8×5 trailer offers the ideal balance of size, strength, and convenience.

The 8×5 trailer size in cm is approximately 240 in length and 153 in width, with your choice of box depth at 30 or 42.5 cm. This trailer size is extremely popular in Australia and elsewhere due to its versatility. It offers enough space for transporting furniture, tools, building materials, and mowers. While still being compact enough for easy towing and storage.

8×5 Single Axle Trailer Features:

This is an 8×5 single axle braked trailer, giving you legal compliance for heavier loads. It comes with a 960kg weight capacity, making it perfect for serious hauling without stepping up to a tandem axle.

One of the most important features of a trailer is its suspension springs! So we use eye to eye leaf springs instead of basic slipper springs. This suspension design improves ride comfort, increases load stability, and reduces wear and tear on the trailer chassis.

Additionally, compared to other single axle trailers in the market, this 8×5 single axle trailer is superior! Since it comes fitted with a longer 1.6m drawbar, built from heavy duty 100 x 50 x 3mm RHS steel. This adds strength, improves towing stability, and allows for easier manoeuvrability when reversing.

And of course, this 8×5 single axle trailer is hot dip galvanised in molten zinc, providing excellent protection against rust. It’s ready for all weather and all work conditions, without the need for constant maintenance and repair.

Mechanical Disc Brakes vs Hydraulic Brakes. Why we use mechanical disc brakes?

Many trailer owners consider mechanical disc brakes more reliable and easier to maintain than hydraulic ones.
They don’t require a complex hydraulic system because they use a cable to trigger the brake pads.
You can easily adjust the braking intensity.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great service from the team at Top Galvanised Trailers. The towing quality of my trailer has surpassed my expectations. Not only  is the trailer performing great for local runs but it is faultless on my annual pilgrimage to Bathurst covering over 800klm each way comfortably and with ease. The canvas cover is a must for my use and is holding up very well keeping everything dry and out of the weather.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great service! The staff at Top Galvanized Trailers were very friendly and helpful, going out of their way to make sure everything was working properly and attached in the correct way. They also have a free maintenance service to check the breaking system, Tyre wear and bolt tightness after six and twelve months. The parts come from China and are then assembled in their workshop. The quality and workmanship of the parts is of very good quality. And the price for what you get was very reasonable. Heavy duty 7 x 5 gal trailer with spare wheel and 600mm cage: $3,300!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I purchased a Tipper Trailer. The team were so helpful. They answered all my questions, explained some of the distinctives of their trailers over others, and why those qualities were important.  We needed the trailer ASAP and they were able to accommodate that. Great service and a great trailer. I can't recommend them enough!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Couldn’t be happier with my new tipper trailer! The build quality is awesome , it’s incredibly solid and well finished, and it’s already been getting put through its paces with some big loads.

The whole process was easy from start to finish. Farzad was great to deal with, kept me updated throughout the build, and was always happy to answer any questions I had.

I travelled over from Tasmania to pick it up, and it was absolutely worth the trip. You can tell a lot of care and attention has gone into the workmanship, and the trailer has performed brilliantly so far.

Really happy with the finished product and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend these guys to anyone looking for a quality, heavy-duty trailer.

Thanks again to the whole team! 👌🏻
