Ninety-foot trailer hauls “super loads”

Ninety-foot trailer hauls “super loads”
Specialized carriers can now haul their “super loads” on Rogers latest specialized application model. This trailer was specifically designed and built for a major southwestern utility company to transport emergency transformers. It will also haul rough terrain cranes, excavators or other heavy equipment with little or no breakdown.

Stretching out over an amazing 90 feet, this 60-ton capacity trailer features three air-ride axles with 54.5-inch axle spacings combined with a 14-foot 1-inch booster assembly and two detachable axles. The booster can easily be removed and the rear assembly can be run as a three-axle, close-coupled four-axle, or a five-axle when hauling lighter loads or when a spread axle configuration is not required. The trailer also features Rogers’ unique detachable rear frame for quick and easy axle load re-distributions. The 26-foot platform deck easily fits under most super loads.

This model incorporates Rogers’ patented No Foot self-lifting gooseneck which operates on low hydraulic pressures utilizing standard truck-tractor PTO or a self-contained gas engine power unit that can easily and safely raise or lower the deck under full load. Rogers exclusive tapered, self-aligning beam hook connection offers the quickest and safest gooseneck-to-deck connection available.

The ground-hugging Croucher design has tapered mainbeams for maximum loading stability. An additional feature of this model is a “Dolly Link”, increasing the swing clearance to 182 inches, to distribute the trailer’s kingpin load onto the tandem-axle, air-ride suspension helper dolly and the tractor.
