HEAVY-HAUL CONSTRUCTION AND SQUARE-TAIL TRAILERS HANDLE VARIETY OF EQUIPMENT

Brandt launched a line of new heavy-haul trailers during CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2023, introducing construction and square-tail units that the company says are dependable and long-lasting.

Two Work Ready trailers were on display at CONEXPO: the C550 55-ton construction trailer, and the H850 85-ton squaretail trailer.

Brandt has collaborated with customers throughout the design process to create heavy-haul trailers that provide versatile and reliable service.

“Four years ago, contractors and heavy-haul truckers told us they needed more reliable trailers that would help them get the job done faster. We listened,” said Chris Semple, president of Manufactured Products at Brandt. “With that valuable feedback, Brandt engineers created purpose-built trailers with unique innovations to increase productivity and make the workday easier for operators.”

LOW-PROFILE GOOSENECK MOVES LOADS FORWARD

The C550 features a narrow, low-profile gooseneck that allows equipment to be loaded farther forward on the trailer, putting more weight onto the truck trailer or jeep, and increasing payload while expanding room to balance the load. The trailer deck well has 26 feet 10 inches of usable length to handle a range of wheeled or tracked machines.

A T-style gooseneck support arm ensures that the detached neck’s weight rests on the truck or jeep frame without blocking support from the neck. End caps on the T-bar keep the neck stable on uneven ground.

An eight-foot knuckle trough and rear boom trough reduce overall height when transporting excavators or similar boomed equipment, helping cut down on over-height permit requirements. An auto-ratchet gooseneck shim arm allows for adjustments to maintain optimal ground clearance.

The C550 has an available power pack engine option that can run trailer hydraulics.

SQUARE-TAIL TRAILER FEATURES SLEEVEOVER-HYDRAULIC CYLINDERS

The H850 square-tail trailer also features a low-profile gooseneck to shift weight forward. Spring-loaded shim legs allow users to quickly shim the gooseneck as much as required, and an innovative gooseneck latching system ensures good connection. A heavy-duty anti-dive pin makes hookup easier and helps lower maintenance costs.

The trailer features Brandt’s sleeve-over-hydraulic cylinders to protect against pitting and corrosion. A six-foot knuckle trough and deep rear boom trough reduce the need for overheight permits.

Brandt also offers a variety of other heavy-haul trailer styles in a range of widths, lengths, and capacities.

Our bottom dump is engineered to be lightweight, yet rugged & strong. It’s lightweight crossbracing & gusset design minimizes the twisting & flexing in critical stress areas while delivering maximum weight savings. This trailer can haul more payloads than ever.
