Horizon Spotlight: FWZ Equipment Trailer

In the world of transportation, the equipment you choose can be the difference between a job well done and a logistical nightmare. Today, we are excited to spotlight the FWZ Equipment Trailer, a game-changer for those who regularly transport construction equipment, vehicles, or even tractors.


Design and Specifications


The FWZ Equipment Trailer is not just any equipment trailer; it’s a robust and versatile solution designed with your heavy-duty hauling needs in mind. With a deck width of 83 inches between fenders, this trailer offers ample space for a variety of equipment. But, for those who need even more room, there’s an option to upgrade to drive-over fenders, expanding the usable deck width to a generous 102 inches.




The trailer is available in both bumper pull and gooseneck models. The gooseneck variant features a fabricated I-Beam tongue, while the bumper pull model uses a sturdy 10-inch I-Beam. In terms of length, the FWZ Equipment Trailer is versatile, ranging from 20 to 40 feet, catering to various load sizes and requirements.


Loading Ease and Safety


One of the standout features of the FWZ Equipment Trailer is its ease of loading. Equipped with rear ramps, loading wheeled equipment is a breeze. These ramps are not only easy to deploy (just pull a pin and drop them down), but they’re also spring-loaded, making them easy to lift with just one hand. Additionally, the ramps are width-adjustable, perfect for accommodating equipment of different sizes.




Safety and security are paramount when transporting equipment. The FWZ Equipment Trailer ensures this with its 30-inch deck height, making it convenient to load solid cargo. The trailer features a rub rail with stake pockets along the sides for securing cargo, and D-Rings welded inside the fenders provide additional anchoring points.


Durability and Construction


When it comes to construction, the FWZ Equipment Trailer doesn’t cut any corners. Its 10-inch I-Beam main frame (12 lbs/ft) ensures that your load remains safe and secure. The 3-inch channel crossmembers, spaced 16 inches apart, provide ample support for your cargo, no matter how you distribute it.


The deck of the FWZ Equipment Trailer is another highlight. Wrapped in pine lumber flooring that is treated to withstand the rigors of work, it’s designed to endure the toughest of conditions.


Additional Features


Beyond its primary function of hauling, the FWZ Equipment Trailer comes with thoughtful additional features. For instance, it includes a large, lockable toolbox situated at the front of the trailer between the tongue. This toolbox is designed with a heavy-duty latch that resists damage from mud, dirt, sand, cement, or ice, ensuring your tools and equipment remain secure in all conditions.




On-the-Road Performance


On the road, the FWZ Equipment Trailer continues to impress. It rolls on two 7k Lippert electric brake EZ lube spring axles, equipped with 16-inch wheels and 10-ply tires, ensuring smooth transportation. The trailer also features DOT-approved Tecniq LED lights with side markers, enhancing visibility and safety on the road. The double-insulated wiring harness is a testament to the trailer's durability, ensuring long-lasting functionality.


Quality Assurance and Warranty


Quality assurance is a key aspect of the FWZ Equipment Trailer. The trailer undergoes a rigorous 6-step painting process (which you can read more about [here]), ensuring longevity and resistance to the elements. In terms of after-sales support, Horizon stands behind their product with a 3-year frame and 1-year parts warranty, giving you peace of mind and reliable service if any issues arise.



Conclusion:

The FWZ Equipment Trailer is more than just a trailer; it's a reliable partner for your heavy-duty transportation needs. With its robust construction, ease of loading, and thoughtful features, it's designed to make your hauling tasks easier and safer. Whether you're transporting construction equipment, vehicles, or tractors, the FWZ Equipment Trailer is the solution you've been looking for.
