LOW BED TRAILER
It is a semi-trailer with two drops in deck height: one right after the gooseneck and one right before the wheels. This allows the deck to be extremely low compared with other trailers. It offers the ability to carry legal loads up to 12 ft (3.66 m) tall, which other trailers cannot. Low-bred Trailers are used to haul heavy equipment such as bulldozers, industrial equipment, etc.
The low-bred trailer
comes in several types, for a wide range of tasks. Some types are:
Fixed
gooseneck (FGN) :
allows a longer deck length and has the lightest weight. These
are lower trailers than
normal, with low-profile tires, usually with drop ramps in the rear to
normal, with low-profile tires, usually with drop ramps in the rear to
facilitate loading of equipment, but are not actually considered "cowboys". The neck is
arched in such a way, that it when lowered, it becomes a ramp thus allowing the front tires
of equipment to be pulled onto the deck.
Mechanical
gooseneck (MGN) :
second-longest deck length and weight.
Fixed-neck :
the neck is fixed to trailers; offers the lightest weight, but sacrifices the
ability to
detach and load over the front.
