20ft/40ft Gooseneck Skeletal Container Trailer
The 20ft/40ft Gooseneck Skeletal Container Trailer is a highly versatile, dual-purpose intermodal transport chassis engineered specifically with a lowered gooseneck front profile. This design reduces the overall loading height, perfectly matches standard tractor fifth-wheel heights, lowers the vehicle's center of gravity for enhanced high-speed stability, and accommodates high-cube containers equipped with standard bottom tunnel recesses. Fabricated using high-tensile Q345B/Q550/Q700 steel and automated submerged-arc welding, it features precision ISO twist-locks to securely haul either one 40ft container or one/two 20ft containers interchangeably. Fully certified under ISO9001, CCC, CE, DOT, and SGS standards.

Key Structural & Performance Features
1. Lowered Gooseneck Chassis & High-Tensile Structure
- High-Tensile Steel Construction: Fabricated with Q345B, Q550, or Q700 structural steel, ensuring an optimal balance of high yield strength, impact resistance, and minimized tare weight.
- Automated SAW Welding: Robotic Submerged-Arc Welding (SAW) combined with $CO_2$ gas-shielded welding guarantees exceptional joint durability and structural integrity under dynamic highway transit loads.
- Lowered Gooseneck Profile: Features an engineered front drop section that reduces overall loading height, matches standard tractor fifth-wheel heights, and lowers the center of gravity for maximum highway stability.
- Tunnel-Compatible Recess: Specially designed gooseneck framework accommodates standard high-cube shipping containers with bottom tunnel castings, ensuring flush placement and correct vertical clearance compliance.
2. Axle, Suspension & Pneumatic Braking Systems
- Axle Configurations: 2 or 3 axles (FUWA, BPW, or equivalent premium brands; 13T / 16T capacity per axle) optimized for long-distance heavy haulage.
- Suspension Options: Heavy-duty multi-leaf spring suspension or smooth-riding air suspension systems designed for stable load balancing across varied highway conditions.
- Tire & Rim Setup: 8 to 12 commercial heavy-duty tires paired with 8.25-22.5 or 11.00R20 high-load steel rims.
- Pneumatic Braking System: Advanced dual-line pneumatic braking system featuring emergency relay valves and ABS compliance matching international highway safety codes.
3. Operational Accessories & Logistics Setup
- Landing Gear & Kingpin: 28-Ton two-speed landing gear (JOST / FUWA) and 50# (2") or 90# (3.5") interchangeable kingpins for rapid tractor coupling.
- Electrical & Lighting System: 24V 7-pin LED lighting system with waterproof wiring harnesses meeting international road safety directives.
- Standard Utility Add-ons: 1–2 spare tire carriers, steel mudguards with anti-spray flaps, and a lockable weather-sealed tool box.
Commercial & Logistics Terms
- Warranty Policy: 3-Year warranty for the main beam; 1-Year warranty for axles and suspension components.
- Delivery Lead Time: 20 – 30 working days upon order confirmation.
- Packaging & Shipping: Nude packing; stacked or shipped via Ro-Ro vessel, Bulk Cargo ship, or Container.
- Payment Terms: T/T (Telegraphic Transfer), L/C (Letter of Credit).
