What is the purpose of a flatbed trailer on a semi truck?

A flatbed trailer is one of the most versatile trailers used in the freight industry. Its main purpose is to haul oversized freight, equipment, machinery, or any other type of cargo that will not fit inside a dry van enclosed trailer. The cargo can be placed on the long flat bed of the trailer and strapped and secured down for transport. The most desirable part of this trailer is the ability to load the cargo from the sides or back using a forklift, or even a crane depending on the type of cargo being loaded.


How do you evenly load a fifty three foot semi trailer?

You have to put your weight evenly between your trailer axles and your trucks rear axles. You have to know the weight limit of your truck and trailer, it should say in the owner's manual or you can read the weight limit on the tires. The majority of the weight should be on the trailer because if you put most of the weight on the truck the trailer will begin to fishtail. If it is a flatbed trailer and you look along the side you will see that it bows up, you should never load it to were it bows down because it is probably overloaded at that point. Also you should read the owner's manual to learn how to move the axles on the trailer.


What is a cheater bar on the trailer dump on a 18 wheeler?

Maybe you're thinking of a Johnson bar, which is either attached to the steering column or on the dash, and is used to actuate the trailer brakes without actuating the remaining brakes? Real handy for extendable RNG trailers, where you must keep air supplied to the trailer, but have to apply the trailer brakes. A cheater bar is the bar used to tighten down strap winches and chain binders on flatbed and other open deck trailers.

What is tongue weight while towing a boat?

The tongue of the trailer presses down on the trailer hitch, and that is tongue weight. How hard it presses down is a function of the weight in front of the trailer wheels, and how much of the weight is not offset by the weight behind the wheels. If the tongue weight is too great, the rear of the towing vehicle goes down. Too light, and the boat trailer will swing side to side.
