"More Trailer For Your Money"

8.5 x 38 Diamond C FMAX 212 25.9K Equipment Trailer – Ready To Work!

Hydraulic Jack(s)

The Diamond C FMAX 212 is the heavy-commercial evolution of the FMAX series. The 212 package steps up to 12,000 lb axles, providing a 25,900 lb GVWR. This trailer is the "Gold Standard" for professional hotshotters and heavy equipment haulers who need maximum legal payload without stepping into CDL-required triple-axle territory. KEY STANDARD FEATURES Wheel and Tire Specifications

Tires: ST235/80R16 Radial Tires.

Load Range: G (14-Ply).

Wheels: 16" x 6" Heavy-Duty Dual Wheels.

Engineered Beam 2.0 Frame

Unlike traditional I-beams, these frames are tall, thin, and arched. This design allows the trailer to be lighter but significantly stronger, with a frame height typically reaching 16" for the FMAX212.

MAX Ramps (Loading Style)

The "MR" configuration includes a 60" self-cleaning dovetail paired with 44" wide, heavy-duty flip-over ramps. These ramps are spring-loaded for easy lifting and lay flat to provide a full-length level deck when not in use.

Dual 12,000 lb Oil Bath Axles

Standard equipment includes two 12k heavy-duty axles featuring oil bath hubs for easier maintenance and electric drum brakes on both axles.

12" Engineered Gooseneck

The neck is constructed with a curved web design that distributes stress more evenly than traditional squared-off necks. It includes a standard 30K Curt cushioned coupler and a winch mounting tray.

Integrated Sway Control

Standard on models 30' and longer, this torque tube runs the length of the trailer to prevent frame twist and improve stability when hauling heavy, off-center loads.

Diamond Plate Neck Box

A large, lockable storage box is built into the gooseneck uprights, featuring a gas-shock assisted lid and a chain rack for organized storage.

Progressive Lighting & Steps

The trailer comes with an all-LED lighting package, including mid-turn signals and clearance lights. For operator safety, it features front retractable steps and ridged mid-turn steps on both sides of the deck.

PERFECT FOR The Diamond C FMAX212 is essentially the "gold standard" for hotshot truckers and heavy agricultural operators. Because of its Engineered Beam construction, it offers a higher payload-to-weight ratio than almost any other trailer in its class.

Professional Hotshot TruckingThis is the primary choice for hotshotters because the frame is designed to "flex" under load without permanent deformation. The Max Ramps are a game-changer here because they allow you to haul a piece of heavy equipment (like a tractor) and then flip them flat to haul a full load of pipe or hay on the same trip.

Heavy Construction & EarthmovingThe FMAX212 is perfect for transporting medium-sized earthmovers, such as:

• Skid Steers (including heavy tracked models)
• Mini-Excavators (up to the 10-ton class)
• Telehandlers The low-profile deck height makes loading these top-heavy machines much safer.

Agriculture & Livestock SupportFarmers use this model for hauling:

• Large Round Bales: The 102" wide deck and flat-surface Max Ramps maximize your loading footprint.
• Combustion Headers & Implements: The sway control torque tube ensures that long, wide loads don't cause the trailer to "fish-tail" on rural highways.

Oilfield & Industrial LogisticsThe "dual-tandem" 12k axle setup provides a 25,900 lb GVWR, which is the "sweet spot" for hauling:

Industrial generators and compressors.

Drill pipe or casing.

Steel coils (provided you have the appropriate dunnage).

WHY CHOOSE THE DIAMOND C FMAX 212 While many trailers use "off-the-shelf" steel beams, Diamond C treats the trailer frame like a semi-truck chassis. Here is the competitive edge:

Engineered Beam Technology (The "Fleetneck 2.0") Most trailers use standard hot-rolled I-beams that are the same thickness from front to back. Diamond C uses laser-cut, skeletal beams that are taller in the center where the stress is highest and tapered where it’s not.

• The Benefit: You get a frame that is stronger but lighter. In the hotshot world, every pound of trailer weight you save is an extra pound of legal payload you can charge for.
• The Flex: These beams are rated at 50,000–100,000 PSI (vs. the industry standard 36,000 PSI). They are designed to "camber" or arch, so they stay level under load rather than sagging over time.

The "Max Ramps" Advantage Standard flip-over ramps on other brands are often narrow, heavy, and create a "hump" at the back.

• Full-Width Loading: At 44" wide each, they create a nearly solid floor at the back. You can load a wide-track skid steer or a narrow-wheel mower without adjusting anything.
• Flat Deck Versatility: When folded flat, they are flush with the deck. This allows you to haul 40 feet of pipe or hay on a trailer
