Designed for durability and straightforward installation, the Trojan Straight Beam Axle with disc brakes delivers dependable stopping performance and long-lasting protection in demanding trailer applications. Built to order, it comes with a clear six-week lead time to ensure precise fitment for your build while maintaining Trojan’s reputation for rugged, reliable drivetrain components.

Key to the system is compatibility with leaf-spring suspensions, providing a proven, easy-to-service platform for trailers ranging from light commercial to agricultural. The galvanised finish shields against corrosion in coastal or harsh outdoor environments, helping bearings and springs endure seasons of exposure with minimal maintenance.

What makes this axle stand out

• High-load capacity: rated at 1,750 kg, suitable for a wide range of trailer configurations.
• Disc braking: integrated disc brakes deliver stronger, more consistent stopping power in wet or muddy conditions compared with drum systems.
• Robust beam construction: available in 40 mm, 50 mm or 65 mm square hollow box section depending on capacity needs, optimising strength-to-weight for your application.
• Finish versatility: choose galvanised for maximum corrosion resistance or bare metal to match specialty builds.
• Precise fitment requirements: measurements C (face-to-face hub-to-hub) and D (center-to-center of spring mounting) are essential for exact alignment and best handling.
• Made to order: every axle is custom-built to your specifications with a minimum lead time of six weeks before dispatch.
• Hub options: hubs can be fitted to the new axle as an add-on—check related products for availability.
• Trojan reliability: crafted by a brand trusted for durable, performance-focused axles designed to endure tough conditions and demanding workloads.

Ideal applications and use cases
