OUR BOATWHEELS STANDARD FEATURES



Galvanized V-Torsion Axles with Brakes

Boatwheels Custom Aluminum Boat Trailers uses galvanized v-bent torsion axles on all trailer models; allowing for a lower center of gravity and a more attractive appearance.  Our axles are  equipped with hydraulic brakes (disc or drum) and we use DOT approved flexible brake lines.  

A torsion axle is a simple steel shaft mounted in rubber inside a steel tube.  There is a trailing "arm" on each end of the axle with a normal spindle to mount a hub.  Torsion axles, when compared to spring axles,  ride smoother, have inherent shock absorption qualities and fewer moving parts, therefore, less maintenance problems.  Our axles come with accu-lube hubs, making lubrication far easier. Torsion axles have become the predominately used axle in better trailers.  Additionally, because our axles are galvanized, they are rust-resistant and long lasting. 

 

Brake Choice
All brakes are not equal.  That is why Alumina offers each boater the choice of either disc or drum brakes.  Depending on the individual clients needs, brakes can be customized to fit how and where each trailer will be used.

 

 

Tires

Boatwheels Trailers are equipped with Carlisle tires and galvanized steel rims.  Approved for over-the-highway use, these tires comply with U.S. Department of Transportation requirements.  Their long-lasting, wrap-around tread provides sure cornering and safe travel.    

  

 

Oak Bunks

Covered with marine grade carpet, our adjustable solid oak bunks make ramping a breeze and are easy on your boat.

 

 

Fenders

Boatwheels uses heavy-duty, aluminum, diamond-plate fenders on all trailers.  These fenders are impressive in both looks and durability.

 

 

Two Speed Winch

Our heavy-duty winch has two speeds and a 10,000 pound strap.  It is mounted on a fully adjustable galvanized stand, making your trailering secure and versatile.

 

 

Tongue Jack

Boatwheels equips all trailers with a zinc-plated, adjustable tongue jack with caster wheel.  Drop-leg jacks are used on all of our heavy-duty models.

 

 

Safety Chains

Our trailers are equipped with heavy-duty, zinc-plated safety chains with a retaining clasp that ensures security while on the road.

 

 

Aluminum I-Beam Construction

Boatwheels manufactures only aluminum trailers. Our trailers use double bent, aluminum I-beam construction with stainless steel mainframe bolts and zinc plated U-bolts.  Tie-down bracket are included on all trailer frames.

We have borrowed the bolt-together technology of the auto industry to design a trailer that is never in danger of "cracking a weld". The bolt-together design allows for a safe, flexible trailer frame that will never crack.  

 

Why is aluminum better than steel? 
Unlike steel, aluminum is inherently resistant to rust and corrosion, and it needs no paint or galvanization.  Steel trailers not only require painting, but tubular frame construction has been known to rust undetected from the inside, which can result in frame breakage and load damage. Aluminum is stronger than steel and will not weaken because of rust and corrosion.  In addition, aluminum's lighter weight lessens the strain on your towing vehicle which also reduces gas consumption. 

 

 

LED Lights

Boatwheels sets itself apart from many other trailer manufacturers by providing LED lights as a standard feature.  The LED lighting technology offers the following benefits:

LED Lights...

*have no filaments to break or replace, therefore, they are essentially maintenance free!
*are corrosion and moisture resistant.
*are less susceptible to shock and vibration.
*draw 10 - 15% less amps than incandescent lighting.
*are rated at 100,000 hours - this is over 10 years of continuous use!
*improve braking response time because they illuminate faster than conventional incandescent lighting.
*meet or exceed DOT FMVSS 108 / Canadian CMVSS requirements.


Wiring With Grommets and Waterproof Connections

Many trailer manufacturers cut corners with sloppy wiring that allows for quick manufacturing, as well as quick malfunctioning.  A Boatwheels trailer uses plastic grommets in every hole drilled to protect the wire and prevent chaffing that will lead to shorts/malfunctioning.  Additionally, the wire connections used are made with mechanical crimps and sealed with waterproof heat shrink connectors.
