Metals distributor expands trailer fleet26 March 2020

West Midlands-based metals distributor Amari Metals has expanded its trailer fleet with nine units, built by Cartwright.

One of the order is a special coil carrier curtainsider. Specified at an overall height of 4m, it has been designed with a 7.2m-long well running down the centre of the floor, to carry coils with an outer diameter of between 800mm and 2,200mm.

Four sets of galvanised steel posts along the length of the floor keep the coils in position, and the floor has a special drop-in cover for when the unit is not in use. Other features include sliding pillars to support the roof and SAF suspension.

The order also includes two 4.2m high curtainsiders with 52 lashing rings – double the usual amount. These units also have five pairs of steel posts that drop in down the side raves so that a second level of metals can be carried down the length, sitting on the posts.

The remaining six units were standard curtainsiders, all postless and each of 4m in height, also with 52 lashing rings.
