External Trailer Landing Gear

External Trailer Landing Gear

External trailer landing legs—also known as outboard trailer supports—are critical load-bearing components for semi-trailers. Forged from high-strength steel, they feature an external gearbox design and manual crank operation for smooth, flexible lifting. Available in single-action and linked models, they offer stable support and resist deformation under heavy loads. They support the trailer during loading, unloading, and drop-and-hook operations while protecting the kingpin; they are compatible with various types of freight semi-trailers, with specifications available for customization.

The external landing gear is a critical support component for semi-trailers, widely used in drop-and-hook transport operations and mounted on both sides of the trailer. Constructed from high-strength alloy steel through welding and forging, the unit features a robust structure capable of withstanding heavy loads and impacts. It is equipped with a manual drive mechanism supporting both independent and synchronized operation modes, ensuring convenient and effortless height adjustment.

The product has undergone rigorous flaw detection and load testing to ensure stable load-bearing performance. It reliably supports the trailer's weight during parking, loading/unloading, and tractor detachment, thereby reducing stress on the kingpin and ensuring operational safety. Suitable for various semi-trailer types-including flatbed, stake-side, and box trailers-the landing gear can be customized regarding load capacity and mounting dimensions to meet specific customer requirements. Each unit undergoes strict factory quality inspections, offering a long service life and easy maintenance.

Product Types

1. Independent-action landing legs: The left and right legs are controlled separately via hand cranks, allowing for individual height

adjustment. Suitable for uneven terrain requiring leveling, they are easy to maintain and represent a common market standard.

 

2. Linked-action landing legs: A single crank simultaneously operates the lifting and lowering of both legs, saving time and effort. Ideal for flat surfaces and freight trailers that frequently undergo coupling and uncoupling operations.

 

3. Heavy-duty landing legs: Feature thickened housings and large-module gears for high load-bearing capacity; suitable for oversized cargo transport and heavy-duty semi-trailers.

 

4. Lightweight landing legs: Feature a lightweight structure and reduced dead weight; primarily used for standard-load box trailers, stake trailers, and general freight trailers.

Features and Advantages

1. External Structure Design: Convenient for maintenance and repair; the exposed gearbox facilitates inspection and repair, and there is no need to disassemble the trailer beam in case of malfunction.

 

2. High load-bearing capacity: Made of Q355 high-strength steel and alloy forged gears, it is resistant to deformation and impact, and provides stable support under heavy load conditions.

 

3. Flexible operation: Supports both single-action and linkage modes. The hand-crank lifting is smooth, labor-saving and efficient, and suitable for frequent hanging operations.

 

4. Corrosion-resistant and durable: Overall painting/powder coating treatment, rust-proof and corrosion-resistant, suitable for complex outdoor environments such as rain, snow, and construction sites.

 

5. Wide adaptability: Multiple tonnage options are available, installation is simple, and it can be matched with various semi-trailers such as box trucks, stake trucks, and flatbed trucks. Customization is supported.
