Tandem Axle Trailers Transport Solutions
Heavy Haulers has over a decade of heavy haul trucking experience. That’s why, we know the benefits of using a tandem axle trailer for shipping certain loads. A tandem axle trailer has two sets of axles, one right behind the other. This allows for a more stable transport, because they handle the weight better. Tandem axle trailers also absorb more shock, for a smoother ride, which keeps your oversize cargo secure. That’s why tandem axle trailers are perfect for shipping heavy loads.
There are government regulated rules to the setting of tandems, which makes the wheelbase of a trailer and tractor combination less. Long trailer wheelbases cause less maneuverability and keep the trailer running over curbs. Sliding tandem axles forward or backward along the length of the trailer allows for more control of weight distribution.
Heavy Haulers tandem axle trailer operatives push forward the sliders to bring more weight to the trailer axles. A set of locking pins holes on the tandem slider rail make the determination where to set this weight distribution system. Distance between these locking holes vary with trailer manufacturer, and Heavy Haulers tandem axle trailer operators move 4 inches to shift a 250 pounds and 6 inches for 400 pounds.

Sliding tandem systems on the axles help in adjusting or moving weight off the tractor’s rear axle to the tandem axles on the trailer. They also assist in weighing off or adjust the weight from the trailers axles forward to the tractor's axles to set bridge length according to state regulations.
