FELK Tandem Trailers
FELK Engineering has been manufacturing high-performance tandem trailers for the life of the company.
The word tandem refers to a trailer with two axles and four wheels. Second axles are used to induce greater stability, so typically speaking, a tandem trailer will have a greater carrying capacity than a single-axle trailer.
As such, tandem trailers are suitable for those with larger payload requirements. Our tandem trailers come in 2t, 3t, 3.5t and 4.5t GVM variations.
Deciding between a large single axle and a tandem trailer
We often receive the question I’m on the fence, should I get a larger single axle or a tandem trailer?
The answer to this depends on your individual preferences. We will try to provide you with unbiased information below:
- Both single trailers and tandem can be the same length (i.e. a 7×5 tandem with a 1500mm drawbar is the same length as a 7 x 5 single with a 1500mm drawbar)
- Single axle trailers are easier to push around when not connected to the tow vehicle since they only have two wheels
- Tandem axle trailers can distribute weight over four wheels, which can improve the sense of stability when driving
- Tandem axle trailers may be better-served for heavy-industry use over the long term
- 4 tyres on the road may increase grip and stopping-power
