Overview

Quad axle strength. Built around your load.

The TRT Quad Axle Low Loader (4x4) is built for moving heavier plant, machinery and specialised equipment with stability, control and confidence.

Available in fixed width, deck widening, or full / axle widening configurations, it can be built to suit your payload, route requirements, site access and the way your operation works.


Features

Built for heavier work.

When the load gets bigger, the trailer needs to work smarter. The TRT Quad Axle Low Loader (4x4) gives operators the strength, load spread and flexibility needed for demanding heavy transport work. With fixed width, deck widening and full / axle widening options available, each trailer can be configured around the machine, the route and the job.

  • Quad Axle Configuration

    The 4x4 configuration provides greater load spread for heavier plant, machinery and specialised equipment. It gives operators more capacity and confidence when transporting larger loads across demanding routes and worksites.

  • Widening Options

    Available in fixed width, deck widening, or full / axle widening configurations, the TRT Quad Axle Low Loader can be built around your load profile, route requirements and stability needs.

  • Rear Steer Axles

    One or two rear steer axles are available on the quad axle configuration. Steering axles reduce tyre wear and chassis stress on long hauls, lower fuel consumption by reducing rolling resistance in corners, and improve manoeuvrability on tight sites and winding roads.

  • Low Deck Height

    A low deck height helps manage taller loads and low-clearance equipment. It gives operators more flexibility when planning routes and helps keep overall transport height under control.

  • Double-Acting Hydraulic Suspension

    Double-acting hydraulic suspension supports stable loading, unloading and transport across uneven ground. Independent axle lift also makes tyre changes and maintenance easier, helping reduce downtime.

  • High Tensile Steel Construction

    Built with Grade 80 high tensile steel, TRT low loaders are made for repeated heavy loading and long-term durability. The chassis and deck are engineered to handle demanding transport work without unnecessary weight.

  • Ramp and Dolly Options

    Single or double fold ramps can be configured to suit the machinery you move, with dolly options available when greater payload capacity and load spread are required.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is a Quad Axle Low Loader suited to?

    A Quad Axle Low Loader is suited to heavier plant, machinery and specialised equipment where load spread, stability and payload capacity are key considerations.

  • Can a TRT Quad Axle Low Loader be built with widening options?

    Yes. TRT Quad Axle Low Loaders can be built as fixed width, deck widening, or full / axle widening configurations to suit the load, route and operating requirements.

  • What is the difference between fixed width, deck widening and full / axle widening?

    A fixed width trailer stays at one set width. A deck widening trailer extends the deck while the axle track remains fixed. A full / axle widening trailer widens the deck and axle group together, helping keep wider loads better supported.

  • When should I choose full / axle widening?

    Full / axle widening is useful when wider, heavier loads need greater lateral stability. It helps keep the trailer’s wheel track aligned with the width of the machine being transported.

  • When is deck widening the better option?

    Deck widening can be the right choice when you need extra deck width for the load, but still want the axle group to remain at standard road width.

  • Why choose a Quad Axle Low Loader over a Tri Axle Low Loader?

    A Quad Axle Low Loader is generally better suited to heavier payload requirements and applications where greater load spread is needed. A Tri Axle Low Loader may suit lighter loads, shorter deck requirements or tighter operating conditions.

  • Can a dolly be used with a Quad Axle Low Loader?

    Yes. Dolly options can help increase payload capacity and spread the load, giving operators more flexibility for heavier transport work.

  • Can TRT configure a Quad Axle Low Loader for my operation?

    Yes. TRT builds low loaders to suit the way you work, with configuration options for deck type, widening, ramps, suspension, steering and specialised equipment needs.
