The Z54-007-180 is a 48.5 x 89 fifth wheel steer trailer built to tow pallets of candy through a food distribution operation. Single fifth wheel steering gives the loaded trailer a stable, tight-tracking pull.

A recessed wood deck sits into steel deck bindings, so the load surface is set and the steel frame takes the wear. Two 72 in. end racks contain the pallets and keep them from shifting while the trailer is moving.

Heavy duty automatic jaw and bail couplers make hitching fast, and solid pneumatic wheels cushion the trailer over thresholds between buildings. This trailer fits a fleet of industrial trailers built for distribution.
