2040-S-3TS DESCRIPTION
The PIC 20/40 Combo Lightweight 8-Pin Tri-axle Chassis (2040-S-3TS) is a high-performance, lightweight tri-axle chassis built for flexibility and efficiency. Designed to carry either a 20-foot or 40-foot container. Its reduced tare weight below 10,000 lbs allows for greater payload capacity while still complying with regional weight regulations.
The chassis features an air-assisted slider pin system for quick, hassle-free length adjustments, minimizing downtime and manual effort. Optional Roll Stability Support (RSS) improves safety by helping to prevent rollovers. Its gooseneck frame provides optimal container clearance and balance, making it a dependable solution for weight-sensitive and high-demand intermodal operations.
