A axis for a passenger trailer with your own hands

You can design anything yourself, but you need to choose excellent quality components and be 100%sure that you make a reliable axis yourself. In case of urgent need to buy an axle for a passenger trailer on the site of our online store. Also a series of spare parts on the axis of the passenger trailer from the world's leading brands you will find in the product catalog of goods on vnedorognik .

responsibility when making an axis

with a number of questions, type:

• How to make an axis for a trailer with your own hands?
• What is needed to collect the trailer axis on your own?
• Which components are best to choose to collect the axis?
• How to do an axis on a passenger trailer with your own hands quickly?

motorists hope to make a good axis while saving at work because they do not consult specialists or buy ready-made. Such confidence often leads to unnecessary costs and more, even irreparable consequences.

Before you start collecting an axis at your own enthusiasm, note how responsibly it is. Make all proportional calculations relative to the maximum load on the axis, so that there is no problem in a rapid breakdown during operation or worse than an emergency.

What should you consider before developing an axis for a passenger trailer?

1. the weight of the trailer so that it does not exceed the permissible load rates on the axis.
2. For which the lift will be able to create an axis, since it should not only match the trailer's own weight. 
3. take into account the maximum load of the axis, because any overload can be critically inappropriate.
4. The strength of the metal of the main structure so that there is no brittle alloy. This can cause breakage, especially on road irregularities.

The non-proficiency of the passenger trailer increases the risks on the road, since the driver does not control the trailing device directly and cannot control and interfere with emergency complications. This, in turn, increases the care of the product selection and design.

after all the responsibility and risks, all the calculations can be collected, further action can be collected. The axis on a passenger trailer can be constructed of two types:

• torsion;
• spring.

The torsion axis can be brake and without braking, but has a much greater demand among motorists. Its ease of use and maintenance with a long -lasting service period is conquered by users. Low weight and strength, which allows you not to overload your trailer weight and, if possible, do not install shock absorbers.

The spring axis can also be, both brake and visual. Although it is stable and reliable constructively, it is a little less demand for it. Its weight is greater and often the shock absorbers are installed, but it does not require the peculiarities of care and is quite strong and repaired. It is difficult to make the spring axis at home yourself, all because you need to bend the stroke plates of the metal properly and during the connection of them to immobilize them (the variant of welding will not work here, because it will not give the desired result, in case of failure of one letter will change all the resor.

spare parts required to create an axis

details for collecting design as best of functionality, standards, standards, standards.First, buy:

• Hollow (it is more profitable to buy for more reliability during riding) - there are two types: lateral (stronger, better in operation), chamomile (with a much smaller operating period);
• springs;
• shock absorbers (for better repayment of the rigidity of the road);
• base of axis, beam (a round or square section - a base with a square section is stronger in use).

that is still relevant to the hub (the hub), since it is an important element of the axis, because it is attached to the wheel, in fact, the axis itself and subsequently the brake. The hub is installed or made in two variants:

1. welding;
2. twisting with bolts.

The first option is more reliable though not repaired, but lighter and more convenient in making with your own hands. The second option takes time and care in design and in addition can be disassembled if necessary to replace the damaged element.

After all calculations and the purchase of the appropriate components, start assembling an axis for the trailer device as instructed.

• start with the connection of the beam and hub so that the hub is a few millimeters in the beam. This method of fastening allows to ensure the reliability of the connection. 
• Follow the hubs from both ends of the beam. You can attach them with bolts or welding. Remember that you need to be exposed right, otherwise it will be much more difficult to dismantle such a connection.
• Mount the axle on the trailer device at a distance of 40% of the rear bar relative to the entire length of the towing device.
• Prior to mounting the trailer for proper measurements and better installation of the spare part.
• Before finally fix the part, check all the measurements and distances again, the full readiness of the axis itself and the availability of the desired tools at the hands. 
• connect the axis with the trailer device frame with the help of point welding, which you apply to all contact, marked and marked points.

Making an axis may need to add a brake device that can either be purchased or done on our own, which we also tell in detail in the blog of the site - how to make brakes on the trailer.
