Why is the price difference between lowbed semi trailers so large?

 

Many customers face a problem when choosing a lowbed semi trailer. Why the price difference between seemingly the same semi trailer is so large, let’s talk briefly.

 

1. Weight of lowbed semi trailer

First of all, the different types of semi trailers of the same type have different dimensions, which will cause the effective volume of the trailer’s box and the weight of the body to be different. Because the main processing material of the trailer is steel, the price is determined by the weight of the steel.

2. Material used by semi trailer

Second, for trailers of the same type and weight, the price will vary greatly depending on the strength of the selected steel.

According to the current market price, high strength sheet material will be 150 US dollars a ton more expensive than ordinary steel. Taking a 13-meter fence semi trailer as an example, the weight of the upper body is about 3 tons. The materials used are different, and the cost of the vehicle will be about 500 US dollars. The price difference between stainless steel materials will be even greater.

3. Accessories

Third, accessories of different brand materials will directly lead to price differences. For example, the price of tires of different brands will be different, there will be differences between the air chambers of different materials, aluminum alloy and ordinary carbon steel. Among them, the price of axles of different brands is very large, and the difference between foreign brands and Chinese brands will be 1500 US dollars.

Besides, the rim will also cause a large price gap for lowbed trailers. The application of aluminum alloy rims has become more and more popular with customers. A record of over 12 pounds has confirmed that The steel ring is about 240 kilograms light, but the price gap will also be more than a thousand dollars.

4. ABS choice

Fourth, the selection of ABS, easy installation will be about 150 US dollars lower than well-known domestic brands, and there will be a gap of about 400 US dollars with imported brands. In fact, considering driving safety, we still advise you to consider carefully.

There is also the vehicle light line. There are national and non-national standards on the market, waterproof and ordinary. The side rear lights also have LED and ordinary. Of course, there will be a gap of 100 dollars.

Some customers said that looking at the trailer is similar, why is your price expensive? Today I will use TITAN 3 axle low bed trailer to illustrate the reasons.

If you buy cheap but poor quality semi trailer, you will make up for it in the future. The truck head will cost tens of thousands to buy, so you better spend a few thousand dollars on a better quality semi trailer.

 

The main reason is the cost of production:

 

1. Steel is not the same.

Large steel plants and small steel plants have different prices and different quality. TITAN 3 axle low bed trailer main beam adopts HG high strength steel, our main beam is thicker than other brands, and the price gap is around 700 US dollars. The side beam is designed in “H” shape and welded with HG 60 steel. We use this high cost beam for only one purpose, which is durable.

2. Different accessories.

TITAN 3 alxe low bed trailer adopt world famous brand spare part, ensure high quality and save costs. Like WABCO braking valve, JOST landing gear, FUWA axle and other small parts. Every quality accessory increases costs.

3. Different production equipment.

Also, some manufacturers are a welding machine with domestic or imported brand-name brands, such as Panasonic, Siemens and so on. Some low-cost selling cheap car manufacturers to use cheap or second hand welding machine, welding out of the trailer so that the quality of the same? Such products will gradually go wrong in the course of future use, especially overloading or poor road conditions will reduce the life of the trailer.

4. Process costs are different.

For example, if the same semi trailer is produced, the cheaper manufacturer needs 15 procedures, while the expensive one may require 25 procedures. Is such a process relatively free of equipment and labor costs? In order to save time and cost, some manufacturers deal with some details at will, and finally spraying is completed, and the customer cannot see the internal details of the trailer at all.

5. The paint is different.

The paint is different.Some trailers are particularly bright when sprayed out, and it is not easy to remove paint and fade in future use. And some have no gloss just after spraying, and the adhesion is not strong, it will take off the paint for a short time, then the trailer will be damaged.

6. Circuits, lamps and other accessories.

Many friends said that the lights of his new trailer can not turn on after ten days of running, and the wires were broken. There were only a few copper wires in the wires. TITAN 3 axle low bed trailer use good cluster circuit and high-quality LED lamps.

7. Worker costs are different.

Good engineer design is good, good workshop director management is good, and good workers produce products. The details of the manufactured product are accumulated bit by bit, which also has a great impact on quality.

So, even if the trailer and materials are the same, from different manufacturers, even if they use the same processing technology, the price will be different. Because of the market positioning of different manufacturers, brand value and operating costs are different, just like a bottle of pure water. There must be a difference between the sales prices of street stores and large supermarkets in the city center.

All in all, under the premise of a reasonable pricing mechanism, the quality of the product determines the price. Trailers are the money-making tool for our customers to survive, so you must choose a good trailer. Prudence can’t just look at the price, but also can’t blindly pursue brand worship. Instead, we must tailor our vehicles to suit our own actual conditions. In fact, the right one is the best.
