"More Trailer For Your Money" 7 x 22 Diamond C HDT 208 18K Tilt Trailer – Ready To Work! 18 Ply Tire Upgrade

The Diamond C HDT 208 is the "big brother" to the 207. While they look similar at a glance, the 208 is a significant step up in raw capability, moving you into the 18,000 lb GVWR class.

KEY STANDARD FEATURES 18,000 lb GVWR Package (Dual 8K Axles) The defining feature of the 208 is the jump to dual 8,000 lb Oil-Bath Torsion Axles. These provide a much smoother ride and significantly more carrying capacity than the 7K spring axles on the 207, making it the sweet spot for heavy 5-ton to 6-ton equipment. 18-Ply Super Duty Radial Tires While the 207 runs 14-ply tires, the 208 upgrades you to ST215/75R17.5 18-ply radial tires. These are nearly "bulletproof" commercial-grade tires designed to handle the increased heat and weight of 18K loads without the frequent blowouts common in lower-ply ratings. Simol 15K 2-Speed Drop-Leg Jack Standard on the 2026 HDT 208 is the Simol 15,000 lb 2-speed jack. It allows you to switch gears—literally—so you can drop the leg quickly when empty but use the low-range gear to easily crank the trailer up when it’s fully loaded. Heavy Duty 3/16" Diamond Plate Fenders Because this trailer is designed for larger machinery, it comes standard with Super Heavy Duty 3/16" fenders. These are substantially thicker than standard trailer fenders; they are designed to be stepped on and can withstand the occasional bump from a bucket or tracks. GIANT V-Tongue Storage Box The 208 features an oversized front storage box integrated into the V-tongue. It is large enough to fit your chains, binders, and tools, and on many 2026 configurations, it is even designed to house a full-sized spare tire inside the box to keep it out of the sun and rain. Engineered Beam Technology (The "Heavy" Spec) Just like the 207, you get the laser-cut Engineered Beam, but on the 208, the webbing is spec'd for the 18K rating. It provides a massive strength-to-weight advantage, ensuring the frame doesn't "bow" under the weight of a heavy mini-excavator. DM Difference Maker Coating & All-LEDs Every 208 receives the premium DM powder coat (including the zinc primer) and the high-visibility LED lighting package with a sealed cold-weather wiring harness as standard equipment. PERFECT FOR This trailer is the "Goldilocks" for 6-ton to 8-ton equipment. If you have a larger skid steer (like a Cat 299D3 or Deere 333G) or a 5-ton mini-ex, the 207 is often right at its limit. The HDT 208 gives you that extra 3,000 lbs of "breathing room" so you aren't maxing out your axles every time you hit the road.

Why Choose THIS over the competition? (The "Diamond C Advantage") If you are comparing this to the "big box" competiton, here is why you go Diamond C: The Warranty 2.0: This is the most important part. You get a 6-Year Structural Warranty and a 2-Year Comprehensive (Bumper-to-Bumper) Warranty. Most competitors only offer a 3-year structural and a 1-year component warranty. Diamond C is literally backing their engineering for twice as long. 18-Ply Tires vs. 14-Ply: Most 16K/18K trailers in the industry still ship with 14-ply tires. Diamond C's jump to 18-ply standard on the 208 drastically reduces your "cost of ownership" regarding tire replacements. The Resale: A used Diamond C 208 is one of the fastest-selling trailers on the market because of the 6-year frame guarantee and the fact that the paint actually stays on the metal.
