Talbert 55-Ton Telescopic Trailer

The multi-purpose Talbert 55-Ton Hydraulic Detach Telescopic Trailer (49.4 t capacity) delivers superior adaptability to a variety of loads as its telescopic deck extends from 9.1 m to 15.2 m, giving haulers what they need, when they need it – and offering the advantages of transporting large self-supporting loads such as steel tanks, large generators, and much more. Furthermore its 51 cm loaded deck height is preferred over the 55- to 60 cm loaded deck heights seen on conventional units.

Its versatile spread axle capabilities allow a 2+2; or a 3+1 configuration; and its tandem axle features connections for a third axle that can be flipped or removed. The unit is also equipped with connections for a future 4th axle. Additionally, this Talbert Telescopic Trailer is engineered with a pinned and hinged gooseneck extension that can be flipped. The ability to flip or remove the 3rd axle, and the capability of flipping the gooseneck extension delivers key advantages during empty travel by allowing haulers to retract to an overall trailer length that is less than 16.15 m.
