With over two decades experience of designing and building ground lowering air suspension systems, Elston Trailers are the leading manufacturer and supplier of trailer air suspension for use in a range of  specialist applications.

Our range of air suspension systems allow trailers and welfare units to be towed with ease, with the optional benefit of being able to be raised for extra ground clearance or to accommodate towing vehicle height; or be fully lowered to the ground for security or access purposes. The benefits of our air suspension systems open up countless opportunities to meet the specialist requirements of our customers. Air suspension is the solution of choice for soft ride or ground lowering trailer applications, lending itself for use in a wide range of industries.

Air suspension can be fitted to both single double and triple axle configurations.

There are two fundamental types:

1. Full track axles with bellows mounted inside wheel on swing arm. This type minimises width inside the wheel arch.
2. Independent axles with bellows mounted horizontally in front of wheels on a single axle configuration, or with bellows mounted in front of front axle wheels and to rear of rear axles, keeping wheels on close centres to minimise tyre scrub.

Other applications:

Air suspension can also be used to raise ground clearance for off-road applications, allowing for adjustable ride heights, including extra high towing heights.
