Rogers Brothers Corp. said that more than 100 years of successful trailer design and manufacturing is directly linked to its ability to anticipate the changing demands of the hauling industry. A case in point is the Rogers line of detachable gooseneck trailers, which incorporates an array of design features for reducing trailer weight, increasing deck space, simplifying gooseneck operation and providing a wider selection of suspensions, the company noted.
These innovations save haulers substantial time and effort, and also enable them to meet strict weight regulations. High strength steel with less mass, reduces weight for maximum payload capacity, and the speed and convenience of the self-aligning beam hook makes the gooseneck-to-deck connection a one-man, one-minute operation, increasing efficiency, according to the company.
The Croucher design has beams that taper both on the top and bottom, hugging the ground for unparalleled loading stability and safety. The Rogers NoFoot non-ground engaging gooseneck enables the operator to raise or lower the deck a full 32 in. without a ram-foot touching the ground. The NoFoot’s powerful, low operating pressure permits quick, easy deck height adjustment with the simple pull of a handle, the trailer maker added.
