4m Ultra Tri-Axle
Drop Deck Widener Trailer
The need to choose a large quad-axle trailer and its access limitations is now a thing of the past.
The 4m Ultra Tri-Axle Widener Trailer is engineered to handle heavy haulage loads, including Class 10 combine harvesters and large excavators when fully widened, while still offering the flexibility and access of a traditional tri-axle trailer for everyday transport.
Designed for strength, versatility and performance, it delivers the best of both worlds in one heavy-duty trailer—maximising payload capacity without compromising manoeuvrability or access.
Every 4m ULTRA widener is manufactured in Ballarat using high strength steels and local suppliers and services. We back your trailer with a 5-year structural warranty and an industry-leading lead time as low as 8 weeks.
Widen to four metres for harvest, then return to standard width for everyday farm loads—giving you one trailer that works across seasons, tasks and conditions without sitting idle.
Move big machinery through tight farm entrances and regional road networks with fewer access restrictions, thanks to a tri-axle design that delivers superior manoeuvrability without sacrificing payload capacity—offering a more versatile solution that eliminates the need to step up to a larger quad-axle configuration.
Achieve the payload and performance traditionally associated with quad axle trailers—without the added size, cost or access limitations—thanks to a high-capacity tri-axle design engineered for modern agricultural machinery.
Engineered with advanced load distribution and structural integrity, the tri-axle design delivers exceptional roll stiffness—enhancing stability, reducing sway and improving safety when transporting wide, high-value machinery across varied terrain.
The Ultimate Tri-Axle for Flagship Headers
Designed and built in Ballarat, Victoria, the Brimarco Ultra 4m Tri-Axle Widener Trailer represents a new standard in Australian Design, engineering and manufacture of large agricultural transport trailers. Engineered to carry up to 31-tonne payloads at full width, it is purpose-built for today’s largest Class 10 combine harvesters while retaining the manoeuvrability and reduced road access restrictions of a tri-axle configuration. With the ability to widen to four metres without compromising payload capacity, this versatile trailer transitions seamlessly from transporting harvesters to handling hay bales and general farm freight. Developed using advanced in-house engineering and real-world testing here in Australia, it delivers exceptional strength, stability and flexibility for Australian farmers and contractors operating in demanding conditions.
