High-Performance Landing Gear Systems & Spare Units

From single-speed farm trailer support legs to heavy-duty two-speed 28-tonne commercial sets, our components are manufactured to withstand severe torsional stress and environmental exposure.

Operational Engineering

Mission-Critical Applications Across New Zealand's Freight Corridors

New Zealand’s unique topography, demanding coastal weather, and high-productivity motor vehicle (HPMV) requirements demand landing legs with enhanced shear strength, superior sealing, and structural durability.

Forestry & Central North Island Logging

Navigating rough logging trails through the Kaingaroa Forest demands heavy-duty chassis equipment. When log trailers are decoupled on uneven gravel platforms, landing legs face intense side-load stresses and ground subsidence.

  • Extra-wide oscillating rocker shoes compensate for up to 8° terrain incline.
  • Reinforced outer tube wall thickness (up to 8mm) prevents bending strain.
  • Sealed internal bevel gears prevent pumice dust and woodchip ingress.

Inter-Island Ferry & Intermodal Freight

Transiting Cook Strait via Bluebridge or Interislander roll-on/roll-off (Ro-Ro) vessels exposes running gear to high-salinity air, damp hull atmospheres, and cyclic dynamic shifting while lashed to the deck.

  • Multi-stage zinc phosphate immersion and high-build epoxy exterior coatings.
  • Salt spray resistance exceeding 500+ hours (ASTM B117 standards).
  • Secure mechanical lockouts prevent accidental drop or crank release during transit.

Agricultural Bulk & Tanker Operations

Dairy collection tankers and fertilizer bulk trailers throughout Waikato and Canterbury demand high-frequency uncoupling on tarmac, concrete pads, and soft farm soil without hydraulic drift or failure.

  • Dual-speed planetary shifting enables fast approach travel and effortless lifting.
  • Drop leg assemblies with safety pins save up to 45 crank turns per uncoupling cycle.
  • Compatible with standard NZ drawbar eyes and 50mm kingpin configurations.
Strategic Outlook

New Zealand Heavy Transport: Engineering & Procurement Trends

As fleet modernization accelerates under the NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi frameworks, trailer builders and fleet managers are redefining landing gear specification criteria.

Buyer Knowledge Base

Frequently Asked Questions by New Zealand Fleet Buyers

Essential answers regarding dimensions, load testing, delivery timelines, and compatibility with local chassis builds.

What static and dynamic load ratings do you recommend for NZ 50MAX trailers?
For standard tandem and tri-axle semi-trailers operating under 50MAX permits (up to 50 tonnes Gross Combination Mass), we recommend landing gear with a minimum static test capacity of 28,000 kg (28 tonnes) and a dynamic lifting capacity between 9,000 kg and 12,000 kg. For heavy logging, flat-deck machinery carriers, and quad-axle units, 60T to 80T static drop-leg landing gears provide additional safety margins against heavy dynamic impact.
Are mounting plate dimensions compatible with existing Kiwi trailer chassis?
Yes. Our landing gear mounting backplates conform to the standard 8-hole or 10-hole universal patterns used across major Australasian bodybuilders (including Fruehauf, Roadmaster, Domett, and TMC). We also manufacture customized welding flange plates and adjustable cross-shaft lengths to suit varied trailer rail beam widths.
Which foot type is best suited for soft rural loading sites?
For agricultural and forestry sectors, we strongly specify the "T-Shoe" (or rocking cushion foot) with an enlarged 300x250mm contact plate and 8mm steel thickness. The pivoting mechanism allows the foot to self-level over unsealed, sloping, or gravel ground, preventing torsional bending of the internal screw jack.
Can we consolidate landing legs with other trailer parts in one container?
Absolutely. Through our Bursa export desk, New Zealand buyers frequently consolidate heavy steel components (such as landing gear, brake drums, and wheel hubs) with lighter items (such as rolling lobe air springs, slack adjusters, brake chambers, and EBS valves) to maximize shipping container weight and volume economics.
What surface treatment is applied to combat coastal saltwater corrosion?
All landing leg outer and inner housings undergo abrasive shot-blasting, followed by an automated zinc phosphate pre-treatment and electrostatic thermoset powder or high-solids polyurethane coating. Galvanized foot options and stainless-steel crank lock hardware are also available on request for coastal livestock and marine operations.
How do you handle quotation inquiries and OEM cross-reference matching?
Simply supply the stamped OEM reference number, existing part code, or critical dimensional parameters (travel stroke, retracted height, and mounting plate spacing). Our technical export desk will verify the internal gear ratio, spindle pitch, and dimensional fit before issuing an itemized commercial proforma.
