These configurations consists of a lead trailer, multiple quick connect ess axle modules, deck inserts, ramp modules, lightbars, and bumper extensions. This enables operators to quickly and efficiently increase fixed deck length upwards of 40m.
TRT has developed ready to use horizontal bolsters and quick-connect rear power pack modules. Along with front and rear BOOK ENDS for use in the renewable sector.
This is designed for beam transportation between 40 – 80m.
Just like with every TRT Trailer, emphasis will consistently be placed on customisation and incorporating design input from our customers.
