53 Foot Gooseneck Container Chassis

With a GVWR of 65,000 lbs and sliding tandem axles, our 53ft container chassis can carry one 53ft container regardless of its tunnel size.  We will build the chassis neck according to the container tunnel.

Chassis is designed and built according to Association of American Railroads (AAR), Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS), International Standards Organization (ISO) , American National Standards Institute (ANSI), Department of Transportation (DOT), American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), and  Truck Trailer Manufacturers Association (TTMA) standards. 

Standard components include spring suspension, 11R22.5 radial tires on 10-hole disc wheels, sliding axles, and ABS.  Fixed axles and air ride are some of the options
