Ohio Steel Trailer UTL5008HDS (2015)

The Ohio Steel Trailer model UTL5008HDS is a solid high-side five-foot by eight-foot channel frame trailer. It is nearly identical to the UTL5008HDR model, which has an open-side design rather than the HDS model’s closed-side design. A trailer is an unpowered vehicle that is designed to carry something and is towed by a powered vehicle. The trailer is manufactured by Ohio Steel Industries which specializes in contract manufacturing, plastic extrusion, structural steel fabrication, and riding mower attachments.

The UTL5008HDS model includes a four-way trailer plug and a two-inch coupler for connecting the trailer to a powered vehicle for towing. The trailer’s axle is rated for a 3,500-pound load, which includes the trailer’s 850-pound weight. Taking this into account, the UTL5008HDS model can carry a payload of approximately 2990 pounds. It includes a spare ST205/75D 15 LRC tire.

The UTL5008HDS model includes a three-way split ramp gate that acts as a barrier when closed and as a ramp when open. The trailer features heavy-duty tubular steel construction that is powder-coated a bright orange color. It has an open-sided design that includes tubular railings to more easily secure loads and an A-frame tongue for towing. The trailer’s floor is made of two-inch treated aluminum that is textured to prevent loads from sliding while in motion. The trailer includes LED (light-emitting diode) lights on the front of the frame and in front of the wheel guards. It has a 156-inch depth and an 84-inch width.
