single axle
Lone wheel shaft
Single axle describes a vehicle or trailer configuration with only one axle—one set of wheels on a single transverse shaft.
The term distinguishes lighter equipment from tandem or triple axle designs: a single axle utility trailer, single axle dump truck.
Single axle setups are lighter and more maneuverable but carry less weight than multi-axle alternatives.
