The Pace American Outback DLX is the brand's do-it-all model. While many entry-level trailers are built with hat-posts or Z-bars, the Outback DLX uses a full tube-frame construction. It is designed for the high-frequency user who wants a trailer that won’t "loosen up" over time but doesn't need the flashy bells and whistles of a custom race hauler.

KEY STANDARD FEATURES

Structural Steel Tube Walls & Roof Bows Most economy trailers use flimsy "Z-post" wall studs. The Outback DLX features 1" x 1" or 1" x 1.5" steel tube wall posts and roof bows.

• The Benefit: Tubular steel is significantly more rigid than formed sheet metal. This prevents the trailer from "twisting" on uneven ground, ensuring your doors always latch properly and the roof stays leak-free.

High-Performance DryMax® Flooring & Walls The interior is finished with 3/4" DryMax flooring and 3/8" DryMax wall liners.

• The Benefit: DryMax is an engineered wood product designed specifically for the trailer industry. It is highly water-resistant and does not swell, warp, or delaminate like standard plywood if it gets wet from road spray or a leaky cargo item.

Battlecoat™ & Automotive Undercoating The trailer features a dual-layer protection system against the elements.

• The Benefit: Exposed steel areas (like the tongue and rear hoop) are treated with Battlecoat™ (a textured polyurea coating similar to a bed liner), while the entire chassis is sprayed with an asphalt-based automotive undercoat. This is a massive advantage for owners in the "salt belt."

.030 Aluminum Semi-Screwless Exterior The exterior skin is upgraded to .030 gauge aluminum (thicker than the .024 standard) and is applied using a semi-screwless method.

• The Benefit: Screws are only used on the seams, while the "field" of the panel is bonded with VHB tape. This results in a much smoother appearance that won't "oil-can" or ripple as much in the summer heat.

THE POLYCORE UPGRADE

Upgrading to Polycore (Composite) Siding on your Pace American Outback DLX units is one of the single best investments you can make for longevity and resale value.

While standard .030 aluminum with screws has been the industry benchmark for years, it is prone to "oil canning" (warping) and structural fatigue at the screw points. Polycore is a "sandwich" material—a high-density polyethylene (plastic) core bonded between two layers of aluminum—that changes how the trailer looks and performs.

THE TOP 5 BENEFITS OF POLYCORE

1. Eliminates "Oil Canning" (Waves): The polymer core acts as a stabilizer. It is much more rigid and thermally stable, meaning your trailer walls stay mirror-smooth and flat from -20°F to 100°F+.

2. Superior Impact & Dent Resistance: The composite core provides a "cushion" and structural backup. It is significantly harder to dent or puncture than a single sheet of aluminum, making it ideal for job site trailers that take a beating.

3. No "Spider Cracking" or Leaking at Screw Holes: When used with a semi-screwless application, the bonding tape provides a flexible seal. The composite material is much more resistant to tearing or cracking around fasteners.

4. Thermal and Sound Insulation: The plastic core provides a built-in thermal break. It dampens road noise and helps keep the interior temperature slightly more regulated—a huge plus for mobile workshops.

5. Better Aesthetics for Graphics: You get a perfectly flat canvas. Vinyl wraps lay down smoother, look professional, and last longer because there are no fasteners to catch the edges of the decal.

Seamless One-Piece Aluminum Roof The Outback DLX features a single-piece aluminum roof rather than multiple strips of galvanized steel.

• The Benefit: By eliminating seams across the top of the trailer, Pace American has removed the most common points of failure where leaks develop, protecting your cargo from water damage.

Full LED "Bullet" Lighting Package The trailer is equipped with all-LED exterior lighting, including slim-line tail lights and small "bullet" marker lights.

• The Benefit: LEDs are brighter, last significantly longer, and draw less power from your vehicle. You won't have to worry about replacing burnt-out bulbs before every trip.

PERFECT FOR

The Pace American Outback DLX is the "Goldilocks" choice for landscape contractors, general builders, and weekend warriors. It is heavy-duty enough to be used every single day on a job site but priced competitively enough for homeowners moving furniture or hauling ATVs.

THE DURABILITY LEADER: WHY THE OUTBACK DLX IS THE SMART INVESTMENT

• THE FRAME: Real Tube Steel Construction: Don't settle for "Z-posts." The Outback DLX is built with structural steel tube in the walls and roof. It's a stiffer, stronger trailer that won't "wag" behind your truck.

• THE PROTECTION: Battlecoat™ & Undercoating: Road salt and moisture are the enemies of steel. With our Battlecoat™ textured finish and full automotive undercoating, your trailer is built to survive years of harsh travel.

• THE INTERIOR: High-Performance DryMax: Standard plywood floors rot. Our DryMax flooring and walls are engineered to stay flat and solid, even if you’re loading wet gear.

• THE WARRANTY: 3-Year Factory Support: Pace American stands behind the Outback DLX with a 3-year structural warranty. It's the "Peace of Mind" that comes from a manufacturer with a legendary reputation on the road.
