Straight Beam Axle - Disc Braked - 1750kg - Bare Metal from Trojan is a purpose-built trailer axle engineered to handle demanding loads with confidence. Designed for use with leaf spring suspensions, this straight beam axle delivers reliable braking performance, straightforward installation, and the flexibility to tailor-fit your trailer to exact specifications.

Important notes you’ll want before ordering:

• This part is made to order with a lead time of at least 6 weeks. Plan ahead to ensure your project stays on track.
• Download and fill out the Axle Order Sheet (Adobe PDF) when placing your order to capture all critical specifications.
• Hubs can be fitted to the new axle, but hub components are ordered separately. See related hub kits for disc-braked configurations.
• Trojan offers a wide range of beam axles beyond this model, including straight beam, drop beam, and gull wing types, with both braked and non-braked options. Finish options include bare metal or galvanised.

What makes this Straight Beam Axle stand out?

• High-capacity disc-braked performance tuned for trailer applications that demand confident stopping power under load.
• Custom-fit design built to order, ensuring precise alignment with your trailer’s geometry and leaf-spring setup.
• Material versatility choose bare metal for painting and finishing control, or galvanised for added corrosion resistance in harsher environments.
• Box-section strength constructed from square hollow box section, with options at 40mm, 50mm, or 65mm depending on capacity needs—providing a robust balance of strength and weight.
• Measurement requirements documented as C (face-to-face hub-to-hub) and D (center-to-center spring mount). These precise dimensions ensure compatibility with your existing suspension and wheel setup.
• Firm-order production built to your specifications, ensuring you get the exact axles needed for your application.

Key use cases and who benefits most

• Heavy-duty trailers that require reliable disc-braked stopping power, such as industrial equipment haulers, agricultural trailers, or transporters carrying substantial loads.
• Custom builds where exact hub spacing and spring positions matter, allowing for precise track and wheel alignment.
• Projects where finish choice matters—bare metal for DIY finishes or galvanised for outdoor exposure and longevity.

How this axle compares to alternatives

• Compared with non-braked or drum-braked options, the disc-braked variant offers smoother, more controllable braking under heavy loads, reducing wear on tires and improving overall trailer safety.
• As a straight beam design, it prioritizes straightforward installation and predictable handling for standard leaf-spring suspensions, unlike more complex beam geometries.
• Being made to order means you can tailor the axle to your exact measurements and finish, rather than compromising with off-the-shelf compromises.
