Hydraulic Detachable Gooseneck

Hydraulic Detachable Gooseneck A Hydraulic Detachable Gooseneck is a gooseneck that disconnects from the front of the trailer frame and remains attached to the tractor. Equipment can then be loaded safely and easily over the trailer deck's front end. Hydraulic cylinders are used to facilitate the detaching process.

Hydraulic Gooseneck Jack

Hydraulic Gooseneck Jack The Hydraulic Gooseneck Jack (Hydraulic Gooseneck Support) is a device that uses a hydraulic jack to press onto the tractor frame to lift the detached gooseneck off the ground so the tractor and gooseneck can be moved away from the front of the trailer deck to load/unload machinery. The Hydraulic Gooseneck Jack is standard equipment on all ROGERS Ultima and CobraNeck Series detachable gooseneck trailers.

Hydraulic Rear Ramps

Hydraulic Rear Ramps An alternative to Manual Rear Ramps (E-Z Flip Ramps), the ROGERS Hydraulic Rear Ramps use hydraulic cylinders to raise or lower the ramps into place for loading. Hydraulic power for the system can be supplied by the tractor's PTO, gas engine pony motor, or by electric/hydraulic power unit. Hydraulic Rear Ramps can be used on any trailer having a Beavertail, including detachable gooseneck, fixed gooseneck, and Tag-Along models. These ramps are available in a variety of widths/lengths and can be wood-covered or ladder-style.

Hydraulic Trap Doors

Hydraulic Trap Doors Hydraulic Trap Doors is an option available on all ROGERS Ultima Series detachable goosenecks. The standard trap door lever is replaced with a small hydraulic cylinder that moves the trap doors in and out of position when detaching the gooseneck from the trailer deck.

Hydraulic Winch

Hydraulic Winch A Hydraulic Winch is an accessory which can be used to pull disabled machines onto the trailer. The winch can be mounted either on the trailer's gooseneck or rear frame and requires a source of hydraulic power to operate (tractor PTO or pony motor).

I-Beam Deck

I-Beam Deck The ROGERS I-Beam Deck is a deck constructed of two main beams and several inside cross beams. It is designed for a machine's undercarriage to rest or be blocked on the main beams. For many large machines, this loading method minimizes the overall height of the loaded machine. I-Beam Decks are available on all Ultima and CobraNeck Series detachable gooseneck trailers but are most commonly used with Modular Series trailers so that other deck styles may also be used with the trailer.

Integral Hatbox

Integral Hatbox The Integral Hatbox is a design on most ROGERS lowbed trailers 50-ton capacity and higher, where the gooseneck beam is deepened by 3 inches. When attached to the fifth wheel, the Integral Hatbox provides more clearance for the tractor's fenders.

Jeep Dolly

Jeep Dolly The ROGERS Jeep Dolly is a short trailer built complete with a kingpin, sliding fifth wheel, and suspension system. It is designed to act as an intermediate unit to divide the kingpin load of the trailer and the tractor AND to provide the necessary length between axle groups to meet DOT bridge formula regulations. The Jeep Dolly is similar to a Helper Dolly, but are commonly equipped with a sliding 5th wheel assembly mounted at the same fifth wheel height as the tractor. In order to utilize a Jeep Dolly, the most trailers must be designed and equipped with a Gooseneck Extender.

King Pin

King Pin The King Pin connects the gooseneck to the tractor by locking into the fifth wheel. The Standard King Pin is located 15" back from the front edge of the gooseneck and is welded to the fifth wheel plate. A Two-Position King Pin is also available as an option for most ROGERS semi-trailers. The ROGERS King Pin conforms to SAE J700 standards.

Lashing D (Lashing D)

Lashing D Lashing D's are the primary securement attachments used in securing a loaded machine to the trailer for transport. A Lashing D is a cast steel ring shaped like the letter "D" with a 40° bottom radius that is attached with the use of a strap welded to the trailer structure. The working load limit (WLL) of the 1" diameter Lashing D (properly mounted) is 15,000 lbs. The quantity of Lashing D's required per trailer varies according to the capacity of the trailer and current Federal Load Securement regulations.
