East Manufacturing designed the MMX platform to have the highest concentrated load rating available in a lightweight aluminum flatbed trailer. This trailer is rated to handle loads up to 72,000 pounds concentrated in 4 feet on a 48-foot trailer.

The MMX's patent-pending design doesn't skimp on aluminum in its composition. Main beams and structural crossmembers use 6061-T6 aluminum, with the durability of high-tensile- strength steel at less than half the weight.

Standard equipment includes an air-ride suspension, patented Securetight winch track and locking tie-down system, water-resistant flat-mounted rear light panel, and Securelight wiring that is fully enclosed and insulated from the weather.

The MMX's patented concentrated load package (CLP) builds even more support into an 8-foot floor section to handle extra-concentrated loads like steel coils. This upgrade is available at a nominal charge.
