These axle pads have a very large weighing surface and low profile making them our easiest method of determining truck axle weight. These axle pads are typically sold in pairs but can also be sold in multiples to get complete trailer or truck weight in one weighment. Truck axle scales can be used with ramps for above ground installations or flush with concrete for a pit-installed permanent application. Above ground installations are forklift portable and should be used with quick disconnect cable (see options).

This system it is not for use in legal for trade applications.

Typically available in pairs, these axle pad scales can also be purchased in multiples to facilitate comprehensive trailer or truck weight measurements in a single weighment.

Versatile in their application, truck axle scales can be used in two ways: with ramps for above-ground installations or flush with concrete for a pit-installed permanent setup.

For above-ground installations, they are forklift portable and recommended to be used with a quick disconnect cable.

Please note: This system is not intended for use in legal-for-trade applications.
