Big Loads - Post Photos Number 2

$4000 a pair? There must be gold under the paint!?! What are the two holes for in the center? To bolt/clamp them on?

 

Does he want them as wide as the trailer wheels? I am thinking from fuel storage tanks on the pedestal, tall narrow crates, a short system silo on cradles, high cube sea containers, sheet steel....

 

Do you guys have any of the old light weight Talbert beams up there with the pin on outriggers?

 

96"x18"x5/8" + T1

 

Canadian dollars?
Engineering?
QT130 grade steel, so they're strong enough to support the load they're engineered for and carrying?
Aspen is proud of their product?
That isn't what I paid for mine, but was the telephone price.
Mine are a fair amount different than the pic above. They are 10" wide, fully rated to my trailer capacity, and only weigh about 400lbs ea.

Might as well make them 102" so thier max legal for the future as well, that's what I'd do...

 

The last 4x8x1/2 sheet of T1 I bought was a couple dollars shy of $1k

 

Yeah, some people think steel is steel. The high tensile stuff to built engineered, rated, and quality product stuff, not quite so much...but that's why you pay for it

 

Was that cash and carry? I have to get mine shipped from Tulsa or Houston, depending on which warehouse has it. The last sheet I got was $1400 delivered.

And you don't use farm supply store welding rods to weld it either.

 

I guess I'll wait until I get a current price on T1... haven't bought it for a while

Guessing with those prices though, you guys don't buy that much steel?

 

My tech support is home on college break.
So he was able to find the pic of the floating floors.lol
