Thirty Five Years Experience
Manufacturing trailers since 1968, owners Anthony and Kay Hart have
personally over seen all aspects of HART Trailer Manufacturing’s
daily operations, keeping their company on the leading edge with
the best personnel, equipment, tools, and techniques available in
the industry today.
 Customization
Customization is what HART’s reputation is built on. A reputation
that has been rightfully earned with our more than 35 year history
of custom manufacturing. HART prides itself in manufacturing trailers
that fit the personal needs and desires of their customers. The
only limits to changing and customizing HART Trailers are safety,
structural soundness, and your imagination. At HART, we are large
enough to have the available materials, knowledge, equipment, technology
and personnel, and yet small enough to give the personal attention
to details in order to accomplish the most unusual of requests.
 A.
6” Radius Top Rail .125” thick.
Welded and Cam-Bolted to full length 1” X 2.5”
rectangular tube.
B. Fully Insulated Roof
All HART roofs are 5/8” thick fiberglass reinforced structural
panels with a R3 thermal value for the ultimate in temperature,
quietness, and strength. The HART roof is a structural grade polypropylene
honeycomb core material with a 1/16” layer of fiberglass resin
and woven matting top and bottom, finished on the top exposed surface
with a gel coat. The gel coat finish provides a high gloss panel,
with long-term protection built in. The “HART Honeycomb Core”
roof is 55% lighter in weight than the previously used “Encore”
roof. Additionally, it will not dent when subjected to hail, tree
limbs, or the occasional rank horse that throws its head up into
the ceiling. We use it at HART because it is simply the very best
material available for a horse trailer roof. Besides we think you
and your prized livestock deserve it.
 C.
Interlocking Floor
Each flooring/cross member extrusion is tongue and grooved along
each edge, interlocking each flooring section together creating
the strongest flooring possible. By using an 6061-T6 aluminum extrusion
for the flooring you get the best corrosion resistance possible,
unlike the common 3105 aluminum sheet alloys that are prone to sagging
between cross members, holding moisture, and corroding with time.
Also our flooring is .140” thick, 20% thicker than the competitions
standard .125” thick sheet floors. Greater durability and
longer life expectancy is the bottom line benefit.
 D.
Solid Upright Posts
Solid upright posts on all HART Trailers. An easy way to save money
on trailer construction is to use c-shaped upright posts in the
wall structure. An average consumer doesn’t notice the difference
just by looking at the trailer, but the difference becomes significant
over the long-term. At HART we do not use c-shaped upright posts
because they are only 2/3 as strong as rectangular tubing of the
same size. All HART Trailers have solid posts.
 E.
Heavy Duty Channel Type Doorjamb
Heavy-duty channel type door jamb and frame extrusions with inset
weather stripping, for an automotive fit. Inset weather-stripping
is not exposed to the elements and cannot be pulled off the edge
of the door, like most of the competitors edge molding style weather-stripping
can.
Double Framed Doors
Double framed doors for unmatched strength and durability. No other
trailer manufacturer even comes close to matching the HART Door
System. Not only did HART pioneer the channel type doorjamb system;
all HART doors regardless of size have an additional inner aluminum-tubing
frame for rigidity and strength. Oh by the way, we also fill all
of our doors with Styrofoam for insulation and sound deadening.
Heavy Duty Door Hinges
Door hinges on trailers are either a non-issue or a constant aggravation.
HART door hinges consist of ¼” thick wall aluminum
extrusion stock with pressed in stainless steel caps, ½”
diameter stainless steel hinge pin, with stainless steel washer
between upper & lower half to eliminate wear. On all full height
doors we use at least four hinges, for longer life and to prevent
sagging. However, regardless how much care and effort we have put
into this HART Trailer feature, no one notices, and we like it that
way.
 F.
Integrated Cross Members
Flooring cross members and floor decking are both integrated into
the same aluminum extrusion, forming a one piece extrusion that
gives you “I” beam cross members on 6” centers,
the closest spacing in the trailer industry. The “I”
beams on each outside edge of the extrusion are 2” tall x
¼” thick and the center “I” beams are 3-½”
tall and 1/8” thick. This innovative design provides superior
support and protection for both cargo and trailer.
9” Full Perimeter Main-Frame
Aircraft grade aluminum unitized frame full length along the entire
trailer, floor and nose, making the gooseneck structure an entrigal
part of the trailer, rather than a stuck on after thought. Entire
mainframe to flooring joints are continuously welded top and bottom
to give you the ultimate in strength and durability. All structural
aluminum extrusions are 6061 alloy with T6 temper to get the most
muscle per ounce, 46,000 p.s.i. structural strength, 22% stronger
than steel yet only 1/3 the weight.
• 46” Long Low Profile Gooseneck
Hitch
46” long low profile gooseneck hitch assembly, painted and
mylar protected. Low profile design creates up to 10” more
usable interior gooseneck height. Hitch is framed with 4”
x 3” x ¼” structural steel rectangular tubing
and the gooseneck stem is reinforced with a 1/8” thick 46”
long support gusset, the strongest hitch assembly in the industry.
Installed with 40 all stainless steel bolts.
• 5” Channel Aluminum A-Frame
5” channel aluminum a-frame on all bumper hitch models. HART’s
all aluminum tongue on bumper hitch models is an interracial unitized
part of the over all trailer frame, not a steel added on part that
will rust and need to be repainted (except coupler). Stronger, lighter
and corrosion free, are all no cost benefits.
• Superior Axle Trolley Frame
Made of 4” x 3” x ¼” rectangular tubing
and 5” x 3” x ¼” structural angle, painted
and mylar protected and installed with stainless steel bolts, the
foundation of every HART Trailer.
• Contemporary Body Style
Tapered or dual radius nose caps, 5” radius rear, roof &
sides, rolled rocker panels or running boards, for the best aerodynamics
and appearance available anywhere.
• Rolled Rocker Panels
Rolled rocker panels or full-length running boards are available
on all HART Trailers. Rolled rocker panels cover up all those unsightly
structural fasteners along the bottom rail and gooseneck structure
as seen on the competitions trailers. They also give your HART Trailer
that aerodynamic ground effects look and creates improved aerodynamics
and less wind drag. Or if you desire, the rocker panel extrusions
may be turned to a horizontal position creating full length running
boards down the sides of your HART Trailer, providing easy access
to feed and dressing room doors.
• Radius Rear Corners
Radius rear corners simply create the very best looking “rear
end” in the industry! By using the same 5” radius aluminum
extrusion for the rear post as we use for the top rail, not only
do we have the strongest rear perimeter frame available, we create
the added benefit of reduced wind drag on the rear of your Hart
Trailer. No sharp corners at the rear for horses or people either.
• Exterior Welding
Exterior welding on all HART Trailers has been minimized. All but
a very few exterior welds have been eliminated to give you the smoothest,
cleanest exterior possible. The few exterior welds that are present
are tig welded in order to achieve the best appearance possible.
• Stainless Steel
Stainless steel bolts, hinge pins, divider latches, ramp springs
and striker plates, maintenance free and absolutely no rust.
• Mylar Tape
Mylar tape between all aluminum to steel connection points (axle
trolley, jack, & hitch) eliminating galvanic corrosion.
• Electrical Wiring
All electrical wiring runs overhead, encapsulated in a top roof
rail. Rubber mounted sealed beam tail lights, rubber mounted sealed
beam dome lights and dual bulb sealed beam marker lights for long
life and easy maintenance. And of course, all D.O.T. required safety
features are standard equipment too.
• Rubber Ride Torsion Axles
“TORFLEX” rubber ride torsion axles by “DEXTER”
are standard on all HART Trailers. The “TORFLEX” suspension
system features progressive torque action and independent wheel
movement, to provide the maximum in shock absorption and handling
characteristics. Totally cushioned in rubber for a smooth quiet
ride. Low profile with maximum road clearance. Plus, bearing protection
has never been easier than with E-Z lube, which allows grease to
flow to both inner and outer bearings for a complete repack, while
still on the trailer. “DEXTER” is the largest axle manufacturer
in the United States, because of their state of the art design and
continued commitment to quality and innovation. “TORFLEX”
axles with E-Z lube hubs provide optimum protection with minimum
maintenance, for peace of mind every mile of the way!
• Radial Tires
Radial tires are standard equipment on all HART Trailers. You put
radial tires on your truck because they last longer, have higher
load capacities, roll easier, are more resistant to road hazards,
and they are simply safer. Why would anybody put anything less on
his or her trailer? Radial tires are standard equipment on HART
Trailers, because the best shouldn’t cost you anything extra.
• Windows
Only the best windows are used on HART Trailers. Our windows feature
tinted automotive tempered safety glass, closed cell foam seal tape
behind the full perimeter frame and are silicone sealed around the
outer edge for a double seal.
• Couplers
All gooseneck trailers come standard with adjustable height self-centering
2-5/16” couplers. The state of the art system allows for easy
hook up and proper leveling on most towing vehicles. All bumper
hitch trailers come with 2-5/16” high capacity Hammerblow
Bulldog couplers. These couplers feature simple positive lock hook
up and a 12,500-lb. capacity to take the guesswork out and put peace
of mind in your trailering experience.
• Warranty
A five year limited warranty to the original purchaser against defects
in material and workmanship arising from normal use on the superstructure
consisting of the bottom rails, side posts, roof rails, roof bows,
hitch frame and undercarriage frame. All other components manufactured
by HART Trailers that attach to the main trailer frame, such as
doors, gates, dividers or any other materials or parts are warranted
to the original purchaser against any defect in materials and workmanship
for one year from the date of purchase.
