5.1. Routine Inspections

• Tire Pressure and Wear: Over 20% of trailer breakdowns are tire-related. Maintain consistent pressure (P) as specified by the manufacturer, often crucial when hauling 100 T.

• Axle Alignment: Regular checks prevent uneven tire wear and ensure stable tracking.

• Brake System: Inspect brake linings, drums/discs, and air lines frequently, especially after long hauls.

5.2. Structural Integrity Checks

• Welds and Stress Points: Visually inspect all major structural welds, particularly around the gooseneck attachment points and the suspension mounting brackets, for signs of fatigue or cracking.

• Rust Prevention: Maintain the protective coating. For trailers operating in corrosive environments (coastal regions), specialized anti-rust coatings should be applied annually.

5.3. Hydraulic System Care 

For trailers with a Hydraulic Detachable Gooseneck (HDG) or hydraulic ramps:

• Fluid Level and Quality: Ensure the hydraulic fluid is clean and at the correct level. Contaminated fluid is the leading cause of hydraulic pump failure.

• Hose and Cylinder Integrity: Check hoses for abrasions and cylinders for leaks or pitting.

Purchasing Guide: Key Considerations for Buyers

Choosing the right 100 Ton Lowbed Trailer is a long-term investment. Buyers must look beyond the initial price and evaluate Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), quality, and compliance. 

4.1. Compliance and Legal Requirements

Trailer specifications are often dictated by the intended operating region.

• Road Laws and Axle Weight Limits: Different countries (e.g., Africa vs. EU vs. North America) have varying legal limits on axle grouping, spacing, and total GVW. Buyers must confirm that the 4 Axle Lowboy configuration meets local registration standards.

• Braking System Standards: Ensure the braking system (usually dual-line air brake system) complies with international standards (e.g., ABS/EBS availability).

4.2. Factory vs. Dealer: Sourcing Your Trailer

• Factory Direct Advantage (ZW-Trailer): Buying directly from a reputable manufacturer offers significant advantages, including customization flexibility, transparent pricing (avoiding dealer markups), and direct access to technical support and warranty claims. This is key for securing the factory price 100 ton lowbed trailer.

• Quality Certification: Always ask for certifications, such as ISO 9001, confirming the manufacturer adheres to recognized quality management standards.
