More about Hybrid Trailers.....

Welding and bending aluminium can negatively affect its material properties, especially in trailer applications where constant vibration can lead to stress fractures and cracks. Hybrid Trailers has addressed this issue by designing a unique and exclusive extrusion made from marine-grade structural aluminium. This allows the entire framework to be bolted together, effectively eliminating future fatigue concerns.

While some may question the use of bolts over welds in aluminium construction, there are several compelling reasons for this choice:

• No metal degradation from welding, preserving material integrity

• Heavy-duty 6mm hot-dipped galvanised steel brackets

• Nut-and-bolt assembly allows for easy adjustments, particularly useful for boat trailers

• In the event of damage, individual components can be replaced—no need to scrap the entire chassis

• Lower labour costs make for a more cost-effective trailer

• The combination of aluminium and galvanised steel provides excellent strength-to-weight ratio, ideal for towing

• Corrosion resistance ensures long-term durability—you can even pass it down to the grandkids!

Hybrid Trailers are engineer-approved, undergone independent testing and fully compliant with Rover infrastructure standards and ADR (Australian Design Rules) requirements.
