SELECTING THE PROPER TRAILER AXLE
When selecting an axle for your application remember to consider the following important specifications:
-
LOAD CAPACITY: the load rating of the axle must support the maximum gross vehicle weight rating. For multiple axle trailers divide the GVWR by the number of axles to determine the minimum load capacity of each axle.
-
TRACK LENGTH: measure your axle track length by determining the distance between the center of 1 tire to the center of the other tire. A more precise measurement can be made by measuring the distance from 1 ‘HUB FACE’ to the other. The hub face is also known as the mounting surface where the wheel studs are located.
-
SPRING CENTERS: measure the distance from the center of 1 spring to the center of the other.
NOTE: not required for replacement torsion axles -
OVERALL LENGTH: measure the distance from the very end of an axle’s spindle to the very end of the opposite spindle.
-
AXLE STYLE: important when reusing old mounting hardware and also for proper tire clearance. Includes straight axles (round or square), drop axles with offset spindles, and torsion axles. Also consider spindle size when reusing existing hubs or drums.
-
AXLE CAMBER: Most trailer axles are designed with a bend in the tube that will deflect when the load (weight of the trailer) is applied. This will theoretically bring the trailer wheel camber toward a 0 value that is the best setting for most trailer applications. This will allow the tires to wear evenly and allow the longest tread life. Camber can be affected by damage to the axle. For example, if the axle spindle is bent, this will usually cause a negative camber on that side which will cause excess tread wear on the inside of that tire.

What are the legal regulations or guidelines regarding trailer axle weight limits?
Trailer axle weight limits are subject to legal regulations that vary by region and are designed to ensure road safety and preserve infrastructure. Here are some common guidelines:
- Maximum Weight Limits: Most regions specify the maximum allowable weight on a single axle, tandem axles, or multi-axle configurations.
- Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR): Trailers are assigned a GVWR, indicating the maximum weight they can legally carry, including cargo and the trailer’s own weight.
- Per-Axle Weight Limits: Legal limits restrict the weight any single axle or axle group can carry. These limits can vary by axle spacing.
- Weight Distribution: Regulations often require proper weight distribution between axles to prevent overloading a particular axle.
- Permits for Oversized Loads: Transporting loads exceeding standard weight limits may require special permits and adherence to specific regulations.
- Axle Spacings: Legal restrictions may govern the distance between axles or axle groups, affecting weight distribution.
- Tire Load Ratings: Trailer tires must meet or exceed the expected load, and tire ratings impact weight limits.
- State and Local Regulations: In the United States, weight limits can vary by state and locality, so it’s important to be aware of and comply with local laws.
It’s crucial for trailer owners and operators to understand and adhere to these regulations to ensure safe and legal operation. Non-compliance can result in fines, road safety hazards, and damage to roads and bridges.
Can you explain the importance of properly balancing a trailer axle load?
Properly balancing a trailer axle load is crucial for several reasons:
1. Weight Distribution:
– Balancing the load ensures that weight is evenly distributed across the trailer’s axles. This prevents overloading on specific axles, which can lead to safety issues and potential fines for exceeding weight limits.
2. Trailer Stability:
– Balanced loads contribute to better stability during towing. An imbalanced load can cause the trailer to sway, making it difficult to control and potentially leading to accidents.
3. Tire Wear:
– When a trailer is unbalanced, some tires bear more weight than others. This uneven weight distribution results in uneven tire wear, reducing tire lifespan and increasing maintenance costs.
4. Braking Efficiency:
– Balanced loads improve braking efficiency. If the weight is concentrated on one side of the trailer, it can affect the trailer’s ability to stop safely and quickly.
5. Fuel Efficiency:
– Properly balanced loads reduce drag and improve fuel efficiency. An imbalanced trailer creates more resistance and increases fuel consumption during towing.
6. Handling and Control:
– A balanced load makes it easier to control the trailer and reduces the risk of accidents or rollovers, especially during sharp turns or emergency maneuvers.
7. Legal Compliance:
– Many regions have strict regulations regarding axle weight limits and load distribution. Failure to comply with these regulations can result in fines and penalties.
8. Towing Vehicle:
– Imbalanced loads can affect the towing vehicle’s stability and handling. It places additional strain on the vehicle’s suspension, tires, and brakes.
9. Cargo Protection:
– Balancing the load helps protect the cargo. An imbalanced load can shift during transit, potentially causing damage to the goods being transported.
10. Safety:
– Proper load balance enhances overall road safety. It reduces the risk of accidents, ensures the safety of other road users, and promotes safe towing practices.
In summary, balancing a trailer axle load is critical for safety, legal compliance, and the efficient operation of both the trailer and towing vehicle. It contributes to stability, even tire wear, and overall road safety. Trailer owners and operators should always ensure that loads are properly balanced and within legal weight limits.
Can you explain the various types of trailer axles and their applications?
Trailer axles come in various types, each designed for specific applications. Here’s an explanation of the common types and their uses:
1. Single Axle:
– Single axles have a single wheel on each side of the axle. They are often used in small utility trailers, boat trailers, and lightweight cargo trailers. Single axles are simple and cost-effective but may have limited load-carrying capacity.
2. Tandem Axle:
– Tandem axles consist of two axles placed side by side. They are commonly found in larger trailers, such as enclosed cargo trailers, car haulers, and camper trailers. Tandem axles offer increased stability and weight-carrying capacity.
3. Triple Axle:
– Triple axles feature three axles in close succession. They are used in heavy-duty and specialized trailers like large cargo trailers, mobile homes, and industrial transport trailers. Triple axles provide exceptional load capacity and stability.
4. Drop Axle:
– Drop axles are used to lower the trailer deck for easier loading and unloading. They are often seen in utility and equipment trailers. Drop axles are ideal for transporting vehicles and equipment with a low ground clearance.
5. Idler Axle:
– Idler axles do not have brakes and are used on lightweight or small trailers where braking is not required. They are commonly found in landscaping trailers, small utility trailers, and some boat trailers.
6. Brake Axle:
– Brake axles are equipped with brakes to enhance stopping power and safety. They are used in trailers that carry heavier loads, such as enclosed cargo trailers, horse trailers, and RVs.
7. Straight Axle:
– Straight axles have a fixed, straight orientation and are common in most trailer types. They provide a simple design and are suitable for a wide range of applications.
8. Torflex Axle:
– Torflex axles use a rubber torsion suspension system, offering a smoother ride and improved load equalization. They are used in lightweight cargo trailers, horse trailers, and RVs.
9. Adjustable Axle:
– Adjustable axles have a movable spindle, allowing the trailer owner to adjust the ride height based on specific needs. These are commonly used in boat trailers, where submerging the trailer in water requires height adjustments.
– In summary, the choice of trailer axle type depends on the trailer’s intended use, load capacity, and specific requirements. Understanding the different axle types and their applications is essential for selecting the right axle for your trailer.
