To haul platoons of top-secret aircraft parts around a factory, the U.S. military enlisted Hamilton.
We recently built 75 different custom trucks of various lengths to carry up to 4,000 pounds each. Sorry, we can't tell you types of aircraft they're used to build, but we can tell you that national defense depends on them.
Here are the tech specs:
- 42" wide by 144" long by 15 ¾" deck height
- Deck made of oak hardwood, set flush in steel angle frame, reinforced by center rails underneath
- Equipped with heavy-duty automatic couplers (jaw and bail)
