"More Trailer For Your Money" 5 x 8 Look ST DLX 3.5K Enclosed Cargo Trailer – Ready To Work! .080 PolyCor, Alloy Wheels, Black Out Package

The Look ST Deluxe (ST DLX) is the brand's "step-up" economy model. While many entry-level trailers are built with hat-posts or Z-bars, the ST Deluxe uses a full tube-frame construction. It is designed for the high-frequency user who wants a trailer that won’t "loosen up" over time but doesn't need the flashy bells and whistles of a custom race hauler.

KEY STANDARD FEATURES Structural Steel Tube Walls & Roof Bows Most economy trailers use flimsy "Z-post" wall studs. The ST Deluxe features 1" x 1" or 1" x 1.5" steel tube wall posts and roof bows. The Benefit: Tubular steel is significantly more rigid than formed sheet metal. This prevents the trailer from "twisting" on uneven ground, ensuring your doors always latch properly and the roof stays leak-free. High-Performance DryMax Flooring & Walls The interior is finished with 3/4" DryMax flooring and 3/8" DryMax wall liners. The Benefit: DryMax is an engineered wood product designed specifically for the trailer industry. It is highly water-resistant and does not swell, warp, or delaminate like standard plywood if it gets wet from road spray or a leaky cargo item. Battlecoat™ & Automotive Undercoating The trailer features a dual-layer protection system against the elements. The Benefit: Exposed steel areas (like the tongue and rear hoop) are treated with Battlecoat™ (a textured polyurea coating similar to a bed liner), while the entire chassis is sprayed with an asphalt-based automotive undercoat. This is a massive advantage for owners in the "salt belt." .030 Aluminum Semi-Screwless Exterior The exterior skin is upgraded to .030 gauge aluminum (thicker than the .024 standard) and is applied using a semi-screwless method. The Benefit: Screws are only used on the seams, while the "field" of the panel is bonded with VHB tape. This results in a much smoother appearance that won't "oil-can" or ripple as much in the summer heat. Upgrading to Polycore (Composite) Siding on your Look ST Deluxe units is one of the single best investments you can make for longevity and resale value. While standard .030 aluminum with screws has been the industry benchmark for years, it is prone to "oil canning" (warping) and structural fatigue at the screw points. Polycore is a "sandwich" material—a high-density polyethylene (plastic) core bonded between two layers of aluminum—that changes how the trailer looks and performs. THE TOP 5 BENEFITS OF POLYCORE VS. .030 SCREWED SIDING Eliminates "Oil Canning" (Waves) The Standard .030 Issue: Aluminum expands and contracts significantly with temperature. Because screws lock the metal in place, the expanding metal has nowhere to go but "out," creating a wavy, warped look—especially on dark colors like Black or Charcoal. The Polycore Advantage: The polymer core acts as a stabilizer. It is much more rigid and thermally stable, meaning your trailer walls stay mirror-smooth and flat from -20°F to 100°F+. Superior Impact & Dent Resistance The Standard .030 Issue: Thin .030 aluminum is easily dented by road debris, hail, or a stray piece of equipment inside the trailer. The Polycore Advantage: The composite core provides a "cushion" and structural backup. It is significantly harder to dent or puncture than a single sheet of aluminum, making it ideal for job site trailers that take a beating. No "Spider Cracking" or Leaking at Screw Holes The Standard .030 Issue: Trailers vibrate constantly on the road. Over time, the aluminum "sawblocks" against the screws, causing the holes to wallow out and develop tiny "spider cracks." These are prime entry points for water. The Polycore Advantage: When used with a semi-screwless or screwless application, the bonding tape provides a flexible seal. Even if screws are used on the seams, the composite material is much more resistant to tearing or cracking around the fasteners. Thermal and Sound Insulation The Standard .030 Issue: A single sheet of aluminum is a perfect conductor of heat and sound. It makes the trailer a "tin can" that is loud on the road and an oven in the summer. The Polycore Advantage: The plastic core provides a built-in thermal break. It dampens road noise (making for a quieter tow) and helps keep the interior temperature slightly more regulated, which is a huge plus for mobile workshops or toy haulers. Better Aesthetics for Graphics and Branding The Standard .030 Issue: Screw heads create "humps" and dimples that make applying vinyl wraps or business logos a nightmare. Graphics often peel or bubble around screw heads. The Polycore Advantage: You get a perfectly flat canvas. Vinyl wraps lay down smoother, look professional, and last longer because there are no
