Overall length is not usable deck length. A published side-rail width does not establish the unobstructed support width. Values above come from documentation, never from measuring the artwork.

Structural ratings

Capacity with its conditions

No comparable payload rating is established by this reference. Obtain the configuration-specific load chart.

Structural ratings do not approve axle loads, the tractor connection, route clearance or a permit.

Configuration notes

What to verify

  • Source conflict: overview states 48 ft and 110,000 / 80,000 lb ratings; table states 53 ft and 80,000 / 50,000 lb. Lengths and ratings withheld.
  • Axle count and loaded deck height use the manufacturer-linked TA brochure (PUB 230C, 0220); verify the actual trailer build before relying on them.
  • Source conflict: product page lists 96 in swing radius; linked TA brochure lists 86 in for 5548TA. Swing clearance is withheld pending build-specific confirmation.
  • Obtain the actual build sheet and configuration-specific load chart.
  • Published options and family ranges do not establish an individual trailer’s equipment.
