2026 Stoughton Z-Plate® ZGPVW-535T-S-C-AR

From engineering to assembly, Stoughton dry van trailers are designed to give your fleet a competitive advantage. We have several new dry van trailers for sale, but when you choose to buy from us, you get more than just a dry van trailer. You get to experience the difference in quality and craftsmanship of a Stoughton brand trailer over that of other dry van trailer manufacturers. We pay extra special attention to the types of things that other dry van manufacturers neglect, so we can make sure to provide our customers with the most durable, productive, and reliable dry van trailers on the road today.

Stoughton’s revolutionary Z-Plate® vans are built from composite laminate panels. These unique, patented poly-laminate panels are manufactured using epoxy-coated inner and outer galvanized steel skin for superior durability even in the most demanding applications. If repairs are required, Stoughton’s Z-Plate® panel design allows for easy panel replacement without requiring the removal of adjoining panels common with other plate trailer designs. This means less time in the shop and more time on the road.

Stoughton’s Z-Plate® dry vans feature solid, full-width oak floors, extra wide extruded aluminum scuff rails, and the unique recessed splice plate with “A” slots for better cargo control using any standard cargo restraint system.
