Terminology & Abbreviations
Ball Weight:
The downward load exerted on the tow point of the vehicle by the trailer
Tare Weight:
The total weight of the unoccupied, unladen trailer ready for use with all included fitments from the
supplier. Empty water tanks.
ATM
(Aggregate Trailer Mass): The total mass of the laden trailer when carrying the maximum load recommended by
the manufacturer. This includes any mass imposed upon the drawing vehicle when the combination vehicle is resting
on the horizontal supporting plane.
GTM
(Gross Trailer Mass): The mass transmitted to the ground by the axle or axles of the trailer when coupled to a
drawing vehicle and carrying its' maximum load approximately uniformly distributed over the load bearing area.
GCM
(Gross Combination Mass): This is the total allowable combined mass of tow vehicle and trailer as determined
by the tow vehicle manufacturer
Camber:
Camber
angle is the measure in degrees of the difference between the
wheel’s
vertical alignment
perpendicular to the surface. If a
wheel
is perfectly perpendicular to the surface, its
camber
would be 0
degrees.
Camber
is described as negative when the top of the tyre begins to tilt inward towards the chassis rail.
Toe In/out:
Negative
toe
, or
toe
out, is the front of the wheel pointing away from the centreline of the vehicle.
Positive
toe
, or
toe
in, is the front of the wheel pointing towards the centreline of the vehicle.
Toe
can be measured in
linear units, at the front or rear of the tyre, or as an angular deflection. In the case of MDC products, the “toe in” is
measured in millimetres at the front of the tyre from the chassis rail.
