Goldhofer offers a range of specialized trailers tailored for heavy haulage needs. Two prominent self-propelled trailer models are the PST/SL and PST/SL-E. These units eliminate the need for a prime mover, making them ideal for onsite operations. They offer versatile solutions for heavy-duty transport with configurations ranging from 4 to 100 lines. Goldhofer’s THP/SL trailers also provide robust towing capabilities, often complementing self-propelled units.
For example, a 10-line heavy-haul setup might combine a 6-line PST/SL with a 4-line THP/SL for maximum efficiency and adaptability. Below is an overview of these trailer types to help you select the right configuration for your transport needs.
Off-Road Goldhofer Trailers
- Goldhofer PST/SL
The PST/SL is a self-propelled trailer designed for onsite operations. It connects seamlessly with THP trailers, enabling flexible configurations. We currently offer 6-axle PST/SL trailers for lease. These units, known as PST trailers, are powered and capable of handling substantial loads without requiring a separate prime mover. - Goldhofer PST/SL-E
This model features electronic steering for enhanced maneuverability. Unlike the PST/SL, it doesn’t rely on mechanical connections, allowing for greater than 90-degree turning capabilities. The PST/SL-E is perfect for operations requiring precision and flexibility in tight spaces. - Goldhofer THP/SL
These mechanically steered trailers are the cornerstone of heavy haulage. Known for their reliability and cost-effectiveness, THP/SL trailers are designed to be towed by prime movers or connected to self-propelled PST units.
On-Road Goldhofer Trailers
- Goldhofer THP/CA
The THP/CA model is engineered for public road transport. Equipped with 9 ft. 1 in. axle spacing, it complies with federal bridge formulas in most states, making it the standard for transporting super heavy loads on highways. - Goldhofer THP/DL
Similar to the THP/CA, the THP/DL features narrower axles and alternative axle spacing. This design offers greater versatility for specific heavy-haul requirements.
Choosing the Right Trailer for Your Operation
Goldhofer’s diverse trailer lineup ensures there’s a model to fit every heavy haulage need, whether it’s off-road, onsite, or highway transport. Understanding the distinct features of each trailer type helps optimize performance and ensure reliable, efficient transport for any project.
