FAQs

How is the Polar Trailer frame and tub constructed?
The Polar Trailer frame is constructed of 11 gauge "square tube" steel and not fabricated. The entire frame is uniquely assembled with just six bolts. The Polar Trailer tub is constructed from vacuum-formed “high impact” virgin polyethylene to ensure that it won’t rust, corrode or break. It is the strongest of any tow-behind utility trailer manufacturer in the industry.

What is the tipper latch?
The tipper latch is the mechanism that releases the trailer when dumping cargo. We weld our tipper latch to the steel frame, eliminating the chance of the trailer dumping by accident when hauling heavy loads over rugged terrain or up an incline.

How does the side wall support work?
Steel sidewall supports run up both sides of the trailer tub adding extra strength. Heavy objects can be laid across the trailer without fear of collapsing the sidewalls. When hauling sand, dirt or rock, the supported sidewalls keep the tub from bowing out which could cause excessive wear on the tub and tyres.

How much ground clearance does my Polar Trailer have?
Polar Trailer’s innovative Pass-Through Axle allows 12 inches of ground clearance. This meets or exceeds the ground clearance of most ATVs and UTVs on the market.

How does the tilt & swivel trailer bed help my Polar Trailer perform?
The trailer bed both dumps and swivels side-to-side allowing you to dump your payload wherever you choose.

How does the shape of the tub help my Polar Trailer perform?
The Polar Trailer bed is designed with a raised nose and tail for added hauling capacity and easy side loading.

Are the Polar Trailers clean-dumping?
The Polar Trailers do not clean-dump. The angle of the trailer tubs while dumping are not steep enough to make for a clean dump. However, the tub dumping angle is enough for generally convenient unloading of the trailer.

Can my Polar Trailer haul liquids?
Polar Trailer tubs are watertight, meaning you can haul liquids, including cement. This feature also means your trailer can float if empty or lightly loaded.

What are the specifications of Polar Trailer tyres?
Polar Trailer tyres on the HD1200 and HD1500 series trailers are 4-ply rubber with tube and also include off-road needle bearings with grease fitting, which come pre-greased. The LT800 Polar Trailer has a tubeless tyre and wheel bushings. See model specifications for specific tyre sizes.

Can I use my Polar Trailer for road or highway hauling?
Polar Trailers are designed exclusively for off-road hauling, and NOT as a road trailer. Your trailer can be towed behind a variety of tow vehicles, including lawn mowers, ATVs, UTVs or small tractors.
