Technical Options & Specifications 

ROC Trailers offers a wide range of steering, braking, suspension, wheel and finish options to suit different industrial applications. Each trailer can be tailored to meet specific load capacities, operating environments and handling requirements, ensuring a practical solution for your operation. 

ROC Trailers offers a range of steering systems to suit different industrial applications, towing arrangements and operating environments.

Selecting the correct steering configuration is essential for achieving controlled manoeuvrability, particularly when transporting heavy or oversized loads through confined factory spaces, warehouses and industrial sites.

Depending on your requirements, steering configurations can include:

  • Fifth-wheel steering – A pivoting front axle arrangement that allows the trailer to follow the towing vehicle, commonly used for industrial platform trailers.

  • Four-wheel steering – Front and rear wheel steering arrangements designed to improve trailer tracking and manoeuvrability.

  • Castor steering – Swivelling castor assemblies providing flexible directional movement, suitable for various industrial handling applications.

  • Articulated steering – Specialist steering arrangements developed around the trailer geometry and operating requirements.

  • Fixed axle configurations – A straightforward arrangement for applications where fixed running gear is suitable.

Steering geometry, turning radius, towing speed and available operating space are considered when selecting the most appropriate system.

Our team can help determine the most suitable steering arrangement for your application.

ROC industrial trailers can be supplied with a range of braking systems to provide controlled movement and secure parking during industrial handling operations.

The braking arrangement will depend on the trailer's gross weight, operating speed, site gradients, towing vehicle and intended use.

Braking options include:

  • Unbraked trailers, with or without wheel chocks
  • Manual hand-operated parking brakes
  • Spring-operated overrun braking systems
  • Hydraulically damped overrun braking systems
  • Hydraulic braking systems
  • Pneumatic / air braking systems
  • Bespoke braking arrangements for specialist applications

Not every industrial trailer requires a dedicated braking system. For low-speed operations on suitable level surfaces, an unbraked configuration may be appropriate, subject to the application and relevant safety requirements.

Our team can review your operating conditions and recommend a suitable braking arrangement.

ROC Trailers offers a selection of suspension arrangements to suit different load capacities, operating environments and transport requirements.

For industrial trailers operating at low speeds on smooth factory floors or level surfaces, a rigid chassis configuration without dedicated suspension may be suitable. In these applications, appropriate wheel and tyre selection can help provide the required ride characteristics.

For applications involving uneven surfaces, sensitive equipment or additional shock absorption requirements, alternative suspension arrangements can be considered.

Suspension options include:

  • Rigid chassis configurations without dedicated suspension
  • Rubber independent suspension
  • Leaf spring suspension
  • Hydraulic suspension
  • Air suspension
  • Bespoke suspension systems

The most appropriate arrangement will depend on the trailer's load capacity, operating speed, surface conditions and the nature of the equipment being transported.

ROC Trailers can work with you to determine whether a suspension system is required and identify a suitable solution.

Wheel and tyre selection is an important part of industrial trailer design, influencing load capacity, manoeuvrability, rolling resistance, floor protection and performance across different operating surfaces.

ROC Trailers can offer a range of wheel and tyre options to suit applications ranging from indoor factory transportation to outdoor industrial handling.

Wheel and tyre options include:

  • Heavy-duty industrial castor wheels
  • Pneumatic tyres
  • Foam-filled pneumatic tyres
  • Solid rubber tyres
  • Soft-compound solid rubber tyres
  • Press-on band wheel assemblies
  • Polyurethane wheel assemblies
  • Specialist high-capacity wheel configurations

Polyurethane wheels can provide high load capacity and controlled movement on suitable industrial floors, while rubber and pneumatic tyre options may be better suited to applications requiring additional
cushioning or operation on less uniform surfaces.

Wheel diameter, material, load rating and configuration can be selected according to the trailer design and intended operating conditions.

Our team can advise on the most suitable wheel and tyre arrangement for your application.

ROC industrial trailers can be manufactured with a range of protective and decorative finishes to suit customer preferences and operating environments.

Whether you require a particular colour to match your company branding, a durable coating for everyday industrial use or a specialist protective finish, we can discuss the available options.

Finish options include:

  • Powder coating
  • Wet spray paint finishes
  • Hot-dip galvanising, where suitable
  • Customer-specified RAL colours
  • Specialist corrosion-resistant coatings
  • Protective finishes for demanding industrial environments
  • Customer-specified coating systems

The most suitable finish will depend on factors such as exposure to moisture, chemicals, abrasion, outdoor conditions and the required service environment.

Where specialist requirements apply, including hazardous-area applications, these can be reviewed during the design process to establish appropriate materials, finishes and any additional compliance requirements.
