A trailer beavertail is a term used to describe a slight decline at the end of the deck. This feature makes loading and unloading equipment onto and off trailers an easier process.
Kaufman Trailers when describing a deck length will often breakdown the total deck length into the actual flat length and the dovetail length. For example, Kaufman's 22 Ft, 14,000 lb. Standard Duty Pintle modelconsists of a total deck length of 22 ft, but the length is described as 22 ft. (18 ft. flat + 4 ft. dovetail) to give you a complete understanding of how the deck space is utilized.
