New tractor trailer with a hydraulically operated tailgate

The new Weckman WS 160MGH multipurpose trailer is a strong and durable tractor trailer with a hydraulic tailgate. It is in a class of its own in terms of durability and usability. Weckman quality: tight sides, a long towbar, a high-quality coating and durable FAD hubs. All Finnish Weckman tractor trailers are now available from Hankkija.

Fixed-side general-purpose tractor trailers

In Weckman trailers, the structure of the sides ensures tightness even with finer materials.

The sides of the general-purpose trailers are durable and retain their shape well. Depending on the model, the sides are made of 4 to 5 mm thick steel, and their support structure allows them to flex. This flexibility prevents any permanent changes to the shape. The support beam along the top adds sturdiness.

The standard height of the sides of the multipurpose trailers is 50–80 cm. A grain cassette, available as an accessory, can be used to increase the volume of the trailer.

Robust frame, durable and spacious trailer bed

Thanks to the torsionally rigid frame and platform, the trailer can withstand even significant stresses, which increases the lifespan of the trailer. The frame and platform runners are made of tubular beams. The thick bottom plate can withstand loading stress. The interior surfaces of the platform are smooth, which prevents materials from sticking to them.

All models are equipped with a hydraulic tailgate (drop-down gate). The hydraulic tailgate is equipped with a dual-lock valve. A gravel side that rises due to gravity during tipping is available as an accessory.

All parts of the frame are dip-coated, resulting in a coating that also covers the inside of the tubular beam of the frame, preventing corrosion. The platform is spray-painted. The long towbar makes the trailer easy to manoeuvre even with twin tyres. The wheels are equipped with high-quality FAD hubs.

Safer loading and unloading

Weckman’s innovative hydraulic gate enables the transport of pieces with a large volume. The gate facilitates the transport of work machinery, and no separate ramp is needed. A well-protected cylinder ensures a long and carefree service life. The tested, adjustable structure ensures safe unloading.

Sturdy bogie with high ground clearance

The tractor trailer has a symmetrical bogie design, in which the middle axle is lower than the hub axles, enabling the trailer to pass over obstacles easily, which helps to keep loads stable during transport. The trailers have high ground clearance, since the sturdy bogie does not need any additional support. The swing-arm axle has a ball bearing.
