The Gull Wing Axle - Non Braked - 1500kg - Galvanised is a purpose-built beam axle designed for leaf-spring suspensions, optimized for trailers that demand precise alignment, robust load handling, and long-lasting corrosion resistance. Built to your specifications, this galvanised gallows-style axle delivers dependable performance for commercial trailers, flatbeds, and custom builds where a gull-wing bend improves ground clearance and suspension geometry.

Key features that set this axle apart

• Capacity and type: 1,500 kg nominal load rating with a non-braked design for simple, reliable trailing performance.
• Gull Wing bend with configurable depth: E depth options of 60 mm, 90 mm, or 120 mm to suit your frame geometry and wheel alignment needs.
• Material and finish: Galvanised steel for superior corrosion resistance, ideal for exposed or moist environments. Available in galvanised or bare metal per your project.
• Beam options: Manufactured in 40 mm, 50 mm, or 65 mm square hollow section to match ballast and mounting requirements.
• Made to order, built to your specs: All gull wing axles are produced on firm order, ensuring a precise fit for your trailer.
• Direct measurement guidance: Key dimensions include C (face-to-face hub-to-hub) and D (center-to-center of the spring mounting). For Gull Wing, E (bend depth) must be specified as 60 mm, 90 mm, or 120 mm.
• Hubs optional: If you need hubs fitted to the new axle, see the related products below for compatible options.

Why choose a Gull Wing Axle for your trailer?

The gull-wing configuration provides improved ground clearance for uneven terrain and obstacles, while maintaining predictable ride characteristics and alignment with leaf-spring suspensions. The combination of a sturdy 1,500 kg capacity and galvanised protection means you can rely on this axle in demanding environments—from utility trailers to livestock carriers—without frequent maintenance or repainting.

Measurement and ordering essentials

To ensure a perfect fit, Trojan requires precise measurements:

• C — face-to-face measurement from the outside face of one hub to the opposite hub.
• D — center-to-center distance of the springs' mounting position.
• E — depth of the gull-wing bend (60 mm, 90 mm, or 120 mm).

All axles are manufactured against firm order and tailored to your specification. Lead time begins at a minimum of six weeks. Before ordering, please download and fill out the Axle Order Sheet (Adobe PDF) to capture the essential measurements and options.

Ideal applications and use cases

Perfect for trailers that require higher clearance and reliable, long-term performance—such as flatbed trailers carrying palletized loads, field service trailers, and farming equipment transports. The non-braked design makes it a straightforward choice when braking systems aren’t required on the axle, allowing simpler installation and maintenance.

Materials, installation, and maintenance tips

Choose galvanised steel for durability in harsh environments, or bare metal if you’re applying a custom finish. When mounting, ensure C and D are measured accurately to align wheel track and spring hangers. For gull-wing specifics, confirm E depth aligns with your frame geometry to avoid rubbing or misalignment during suspension travel.

Ordering guidance

Because this axle is built to order, plan for a lead time of at least six weeks. Download the Axle Order Sheet (Adobe PDF) before you place the order to ensure all critical dimensions are captured.
