Reefers

3000R

For nearly a century, Utility Trailer Manufacturing Company has been designing, engineering, and building the most advanced and innovative trailers in the world.  With more "firsts," than any other trailer manufacturer, Utility has consistently led the way in specification improvements that have become industry standards.  Like foam-in-place insulation that provides a full insulation envelope within the trailer, sealed "life-time" wiring harnesses, and standard stainless steel door frames.  And so many more ... like the Barrier Door, rivet-less lining, rust proofed king pin structures, and 100% hardwood floor fillers.  Major developments that have advanced not just Utility trailers, but the entire transportation industry... evolutionary breakthroughs that have culminated the strong, yet light weight high payload trailers of today.

The 3000R is typically 500-800 pounds lighter than comparably equipped reefers, for unparalleled productivity gains,  Added cube and greater payloads can mean fewer trips for you.  Less trips create a greater profit contribution to your bottom line.  The 3000R's built-in strength and durability also means less downtime, less maintenance for even greater productivity.  for today, tomorrow, and for years to come.  The industry's HIGHEST rated standard floor with 16,000 LB. capacity.

Dry Vans

3000D

Utility's stainless steel rear door frame is engineered for low maintenance, lower life cycle costs, and high durability.  For added stiffness to resist dock impact damage, the high strength stainless steel buckplate features 3/8" thick bang plate and light protection bars.  Utility's heavy duty rear door frame design provides 110' of door opening, and effortless closing.  For maximum strength and durability, the threshold plate is fully welded to both the buckplate and the 24" deep side gussets.  Extra floor support is built-in at the rear threshold with two 5 1/8" deep steel channel crossmembers welded to both the slide subframe and the bottom of the threshold plate.

3000D-X

All 3000D-X models use traditional Sheet and Post construction for greater durability and ease of repair.  Utility's unique sandwich sidewall design uses recessed "squeezed" rivets to attach the interior lining galvanized steel wall panels to the side posts.  This construction technique provides a snag-resistant, cargo friendly interior.  Lining panels are finished with a protective, acrylic coating as standard.  Pre-painted white panels are also available.

Flatbeds

Center Frame

When it comes to Center Frame flatbeds, the Utility center frame takes center stage.  Designed for heavy-duty use, Utility's high strength-to-weight ratio engineering yields a full beam capacity rating of 80,000 lbs. evenly distributed, up to 56,000 lbs. concentrated over ten feet, and as much as 50,000 lbs. single coil in the center.

Drop Deck

For hauling awkward loads, nothing goes the distance like the Drop Deck.  This heavy-duty, light-weight, dual-axle, drop frame flatbed features a main beam with a large radius in the drop area to allow stress to flow through the entire structure.  And for additional strength, another unique feature is the one-piece continuous bottom flange, along with a massive 1/4", one piece steel rear buckplate.  Capacity ratings are the same as for the Center Frame.

Combo

For applications that require maximum strength and a significant decrease in tare weight, the Utility Comboflat has your combination.  Built with the efficient use of aluminum and steel, the Utility Comboflat features the same high capacity ratings as the Enterprise Center Frame.  It also feature heavy duty aluminum side rails complete with pockets and/or pipe spools located at each crossmember, integral sliding cinch track, one piece pre-cambered 26" deep main beams with an 80,000 Ib.* rating, and a heavy-duty rear buck plate made of aluminum and steel.  For high strength and low weight, minimizing stress and maximizing trailer life, the Utility Comboflat is an unbeatable combination.

Wide Frame

Utility's wide frame flatbeds will leave you wide-eyed at just how strong, reliable, and yet light weight a wide frame can be.  Wide frame models are available in both standard and heavy duty models with beam capacity ranging from 62,000 to 80,000 pounds.  The standard duty Utility wide frame is an extremely lightweight trailer, yet carries many of the features of out heavier duty flatbeds, and has Utility quality built in.

The heavy duty model gets the job done, without sacrificing the lightweight advantages of the wide frame design.  By using a combination of 6" and 10" deep aluminum crossmembers located forward of the I-beam rear subframe, Utility is able to approach heavy duty center frame payload capacities.

Doubles

For many applications including agriculture, Utility's flatbed doubles are sure to grow on you.  Available in both center and wide frame models, both feature a beam rating of 30,000 Ibs. distributed load capacity.*  The pull trailer also features a full course, all features a full turn ball bearing large diameter precision turntable, and of course, all feature the undisputed industry leader in the manufacturing of flatbed doubles.
