XL Specialized Trailers says its new XL 120 is aimed at giving contractors and trucking companies who haul equipment often the ability to trailer a wide variety of machine types and sizes.

The XL 120 is a 53-foot hydraulic detachable gooseneck (HDG) 3+2 trailer with a rating of 120,000 pounds in 10 feet concentrated capacity and a low 18-inch deck height.

The main deck is 26 feet long and has a ground clearance of 6 inches, allowing it to haul tall machines. The main deck has seven bent D-rings and 13 chain drops per side. The rear deck is 14 feet long with a 41-inch loaded deck height.

The trailer’s power booster combines hydraulic pressure and a nitrogen accumulator to transfer weight from the trailer while allowing the booster to be flexible for uneven terrain.

The trailer can be set up in several different configuration options including 3+2 and 4+1 axle configurations. And if you need to run three, four or five axles in a row, the power booster can be removed to allow for those setups.

The trailer also has a modular deck connection that adds deck sections or swaps out deck designs and allows for shimming when needed.

The 13-foot low-profile hydraulic gooseneck has a swing clearance of 107 inches and a 36-inch flip neck extension. The neck also offers a five-position ride height.
