TRAILERS
PRODUCT FOCUS
axle), a 3-axle trailer with a flip-under
gooseneck extension and an E3Nitro
with three removable flip axles. In
addition to the best-in-class E3Nitro, the
trailer features a high 3-axle jeep and a
new lower profile hydraulic detachable
gooseneck.
Talbert also enhanced the contour of
its standard gooseneck to give it a lower
profile so the trailer can transport large
front-end loaders more easily.
The jeep dolly, which is equipped with
DuraBrite outer aluminum wheels, takes
roughly half the weight of the load off
of the tractor and spreads it over three
additional axles. When the trailer is
empty, the dolly can be disconnected and
hauled on the trailer so a permit may not
be necessary.
Talbert enhanced its high jeep
gooseneck design to a new lower profile
version by adjusting the hydraulics. The
new design is sloped to maintain a lower
contour, and a heavy-duty, recessed
steel plate forms a well in the top of the
gooseneck for resting equipment arms
such as loader booms.
Behind the trailer, the E3Nitro
distributes weight to the rear axle group.
By using a nitrogen accumulator, the
E3Nitro dampens axle movement and
controls load transfer. The E-Nitro
series enables Talbert to offer increased
capacities well beyond what can be
achieved with simple mechanical or
rigid axle extensions. The series also
incorporates a two-speed dual landing
gear for greater stability when the E3Nitro
is disconnected from the trailer.
Magnitude 60 line
Fontaine Heavy Haul is expanding its
Magnitude 60 Class product line to
include a 2-axle bogie and the all-new
EQ2 hydraulic equalizing spreader.
Magnitude 60 Class advanced
technology lowbed trailers are the lightest
in their class handling 60 tons in 12 feet.
The modular design means operators
have the option to run in 2+2, 3+1 or
4-axles close coupled. Loaded with new
standard features, the EQ2 spreader
is designed to be the most versatile,
operator-friendly, feature-rich tandem
hydraulic spreader in the industry. With
the exclusive patent pending “C-link”
mounting system, the EQ2 can easily
convert from a 14 feet, 7 inch to a 16 feet,
1 inch axle spread in a matter of
minutes.
