Fontaine Specialized announces new Workhorse 55PVR pro trailer for the road paving industry

In early 2021, Fontaine Specialized introduced the Workhorse 55PVR paver trailer. Now Fontaine is introducing a new model to the Workhorse lineup–the 55PVR Pro. The new Fontaine Workhorse 55PVR PRO is a multi-purpose road construction trailer featuring the same low front approach angle that the manufacturer says is ideal for ground hugging pavers, and milling machines, plus an easily removable two-piece center bogie section to accommodate excavators. The 55PVR Pro also comes standard with a longer gooseneck, 275 tires and 108-in./82-in. dual kingpin for the ultimate in overall length flexibility.

Both the Workhorse 55PVR and 55PVR Pro models are equipped with the acclaimed Fontaine hydraulic removable “hook and shaft” gooseneck that can connect to or disconnect from the deck on uneven ground. A wide variety of options and accessories are also available.
