8.25' x 18" Aluminum Car Trailer Ramps — 5,000 lbs. per Axle Capacity
Undersized ramps flex in the middle. You feel it through the wheel, and by then it is too late to back off.
This set runs 8.25' long and 18" wide, rated at 5,000 lbs. per axle and built from high-strength aluminum. Each ramp weighs 64 lbs, so one person sets the pair without help. The roller end rides in the factory channel and lets the ramp find its own position as the deck flexes.
Why Choose These 8.25' x 18" Ramps
At 64 lbs per ramp this pair moves by hand, and it still takes 5,000 lbs. per axle.
-
5,000 lbs. per axle — enough for a full-size pickup or a compact machine.
- Sized for a 15" to 25" loading heights load height.
- Serrated aluminum deck — the serrated deck gives the tire a bite point and lets water and grit fall away instead of collecting underfoot.
-
Stub foot holds the ground end where you set it instead of skating on gravel.

Features

5,000 lbs. per axle — the rated load per axle, carried at mid-span.

-
18" width — wide enough for the driver to line up without a spotter on every load.
-
1-5/8" deck thickness — keeps the transition at the bottom short so low vehicles clear it.

Serrated aluminum deck — the serrated deck gives the tire a bite point and lets water and grit fall away instead of collecting underfoot.

Built to Take the Load
A capacity figure only means something if it holds at the point of highest stress, which is the middle of the span with a wheel sitting on it. 5,000 lbs. per axle is the number for this set per axle.
The extrusion is high-strength aluminum. It does not rust, it needs no paint, and it does not put on weight after a wet week outside. The serrated deck gives the tire a bite point and lets water and grit fall away instead of collecting underfoot.
Each ramp weighs 64 lbs, which is the difference between a pair one person can set and a pair that needs two people and a bad back.
Setting Up on Your Deck
Approach angle is the whole game with a low vehicle. At 8.25' of run this set spreads the climb over more distance than a short ramp, and that is what keeps the front lip off the ground on the way up.
The roller end rides in the factory channel and lets the ramp find its own position as the deck flexes. Check the seat before the first wheel touches — most ramp failures start with an end that was never fully engaged.
Set both ramps square to the trailer and space them to the vehicle track. Walk the ends once before loading, and keep the ground under the feet firm and level.
