FLATBED TRAILER FOR TRANSPORTING CRANE PARTS

INNOVATION THAT GETS YOU THERE The Nooteboom Ballasttrailer is specially designed for the transport of crane ballast and other heavy loads. The success of the Ballasttrailer is due to the arrival of large telescopic cranes. In 1985 Nooteboom introduced the first 6-axle Ballasttrailer OBL-78 for the Dutch company Van Seumeren. The Dutch Ministry for Transport granted this concept the certification to drive on public roads with a GVW of up to 100 tonnes. With the Ballasttrailer, Nooteboom changed the Dutch crane hire market forever. Over the years Nooteboom has introduced this concept in many...

Advantages BALLASTTRAILER The Nooteboom Ballasttrailer is available with 4-, 5- and 6-axles including hydraulic power-steering. It offers superior transport efficiency at the lowest operating costs. Nooteboom Ballasttrailers are also available with an extendible load floor. The 5, 6 and 7-axle trailers are equipped with Counter Steering as standard, whereby the front axle is forced to turn in the opposite direction to the rear axles. This optimises the manoeuvrability when moving forward or reversing and it helps to prolong the life of the tyres. • Extremely high payload, up to 100 tonnes...

LIFT AXLES LANDING GEAR EASY OPERATION The front axles can be configured as lift axles in order to save on fuel and tyre wear when not all axles are needed. Optionally the Ballasttrailer can be equipped with hydraulic landing gears. Especially for heavy duty operations the hydraulic jacks are ideal. They are extremely driver-friendly and also easy to operate when fully loaded. The Ballasttrailer is very easy to operate. All the functions of the Ballasttrailer can be controlled with just a few levers. The control levers are mounted centrally.

Details & options SPARE WHEEL STORAGE STAKE STORAGE Depending on the country or customer’s preferences, is the Ballasttrailer be fitted with various types of tyres. For countries where a 12-tonne axle load at 80 km/h is permitted, the trailer can be fitted with twin tyres 275/70R22.5. For countries where the axle load is limited to 10 tonnes, the trailer can be fitted with 385/65R22.5 super singles. The spare wheel storage unit is conveniently mounted under the load floor, so the spare wheel is always close at hand. A storage unit for the stakes is positioned under the load floor but can...

HYDRAULICALLY STEERED AXLES HEADBOARD & TOOLBOX For maximum manoeuvrability all Ballasttrailers are equipped with hydraulically steered axles, including manual steering. The manual steering, including ASA Automatic Straight Alignment, is easy to operate with a wireless remote control. The Ballasttrailers can be equipped with air suspension or the unique Nooteboom hydro-pneumatic suspension. The hydraulic suspension offers maximum lateral stability and vertical travel of 280mm for extra ground clearance. For the Ballasttrailer there is a wide choice of headboards. The headboards come in...

Details & options CENTRAL LUBRICATION TÜV-CERTIFIED LASHING RINGS For extra efficiency, trailers these days are often equipped with a central lubrication system to automatically lubricate all grease points. This is especially useful if the trailer has many hydraulic components. To safely secure the load the Ballasttrailers are fully equipped with ‘heavy duty’ TÜV-certified lashing rings. With these lashing rings Nooteboom has set a new world standard. They comply with the international legal regulations and the load can be properly secured in all directions. Nooteboom pays a great deal of...

High quality standard HIGH QUALITY EUROPEAN SERVICE In the production of our trailers Nooteboom never makes concessions to quality. Only top-quality materials and A-brand quality and certified components are used, such as BPW, SAF, Michelin, Jost, Wabco, Hella and Groeneveld. All this contributes to the fact that Nooteboom trailers offer the highest degree of reliability with the most advantageous price/ quality ratio. It also means that Nooteboom vehicles have a very high residual value. Nooteboom has been using original parts for many years, and the details of all vehicles are kept on...

DURABLE CONSERVATION THERMAL ZINC SPRAYING For the best results, Nooteboom uses preshotblasted material in the production process. After construction, the chassis and components are blasted with aluminium oxide (corundum). This material is iron-free, very pure, extremely hard and ensures there is no corrosion caused by residual abrasive. The next phase in the conservation process is thermal spraying, where hot zinc is sprayed onto chassis and parts. In this process an alloy of zinc and aluminium is heated in a flame. The molten metal is propelled onto the surface to be treated, which is...
