Been around a long time, old ones look good, my 6x4 is made by them, we've had it 10 years, second hand when we got it, and theres not a speck of rust on it, the galv is solid, carries 1 1/2 bulk bags of wet sand with ease

I've got a big Brian James beaver tail trailer which I'm pretty sure uses Indespension sourced suspension units and it has been absolutely brilliant.... tows so well that you could easily forget it's behind you.

Good company and good trailers, I run 2 tri axle Brian James tilt bed trailers that have the indespension axles both are around 8 years old and are still good, also run 2 ifor williams box trailers which are on springs, all my trailers work hard and are normally always at there max weight, 3500kg.
I sometimes prefer springs due to the weight they carry but the indespension axles cope just as well.

The suspension units do rust out after a few years.
If you want something that will last 20 yrs and will hold it's value, go Ifor Williams.
If you want to save a few pennies on the initial purchase price then Indespension are OK.

Our 4-wheel trailer ran on Indespension superride beams for nearly 20 years with no problems, original bearings but linings were changed once.
The backplates rusted away and we couldn't change them easily so we bought replacement beams from Meredith & Eyre last year.
The 6-wheel drawbar turntable trailer has three M&E beams fitted, they are very good indeed and far better than individual suspension units or steel springs.

I've got a 16ft flat bed trailer with the indespension beams on it. Had it about 8 years with no problems at all.
