Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. It's got four wheel brakes on it as standard.
The only option you can add to it that it doesn't come with is basically a three foot hay extension. This extends the deck out 3 foot to enable you to fit more hay or silage bales when carting. It slips into the back of the trailer, the pockets come standard so it can be purchased as a retro fit option.
Because we don't have to put them into containers, it has a full width tray. It's got a wider tray than imported units and in turn a wider wheelbase, which makes it more stable. One advantage of that is a lot of people are putting hay on it so that the bale doesn't hang over the side so much.
At Delmade our trailers use an oscillating walking beam (rocker) suspension system instead of conventional springs.
The rocker suspension connects the two wheels on each side of the trailer through a walking beam with pivot points. This allows the wheels to move independently as they travel over uneven ground, keeping more tyres in contact with the surface at all times.
The result is a trailer that is:
- More stable on uneven terrain
- Better able to distribute heavy loads
- Less prone to tipping or bouncing
- More durable in demanding conditions
Unlike spring suspensions, the walking beam design uses very few moving parts. With only a couple of grease points per side, maintenance is simple and, when properly maintained, the system is built to last for the life of the trailer.
Quite simply, we use a rocker suspension instead of springs because it provides superior stability, strength and reliability.
Our Tip Trailers are fitted with two lift rams instead of a single centre ram to provide better lifting stability and load support.
By positioning the rams further apart, closer to the outside of the trailer body, the lifting force is spread more evenly across the tray.
This is particularly beneficial when a load is not perfectly centred, helping reduce stress on the hoist system and improving tipping performance.
The advantages of a twin ram setup include:
- Better stability when tipping
- Improved support for off centre loads
- More even distribution of lifting forces
- Greater confidence when working on uneven ground
The twin ram system helps ensure reliable operation, even when working in steep or uneven country.
