TowHaul Low Profile Modular Lowboy Trailer (Patented)
Design
TowHaul introduces the first modular lowboy mining trailer for the mining industry. TowHaul offers a front-loading low profile modular lowboy trailer with a removable gooseneck that can also serve as a tow hook for disabled haul trucks. Click here to find out more about our towing units.
The patented hydraulic grab hook design allows hook-up or unhooking in as little as 90 seconds. The TowHaul grab hook was designed for the off-road mining environment. The hook-up process can occur even when the ground is not level and the truck is not backed up all the way. The grab hook will pull the lowboy into place and ensure a safe transport. It is the TowHaul grab hook design that gives the TowHaul front-loading lowboy the fastest and safest hook-up system in the off-road world today!
The Lowboy/Tow truck combinations add cost saving mobility for tracked dozers, blast hole drills, mining shovels (up to 1600 ton operating weight) and disabled haul trucks. They are ideally suited for loads of 100 tons and greater, and are able to utilize a towing unit as small as 75 tons.
Shipping
As TowHaul continues to expand globally, we have been faced with the many challenges associated with shipping lowboys to remote mine sites around the world. Many of these locations have required the lowboy mining trailer to be shipped in halves and welded together on site. This process can, at times, be both costly and time consuming. We now offer a new cost effective alternative to the shipping restrictions.
Most sections of the TowHaul modular lowboy mining trailers can be shipped to the mine site via legal loads and assembled in less than two days.
TowHaul has introduced a lower profile loading ramp for their front loading lowboy trailers. The ramp is designed to accommodate the loading of most blast hole drills without the need for loading blocks. The decreased angle on the front end also significantly decreases the break-over force for shovels and dozers.
Most TowHaul units that are already in service may be fitted with the new low profile front end.
We have also combined the low profile front end with our modular mining trailer design to offer customers, around the world, the latest improvements in equipment haulage.
