CBS C-1290 Cable Drum Trailer

The C-1290 Drum Trailer is designed for efficient and secure transportation of cable drums and is available in three different versions. Constructed from robust steel sections, it features a manually operated hydraulic system for lifting drums. An optional drum braking arrangement can be added, which is particularly beneficial for conductor stringing operations where pulling the conductor is necessary.

The trailer uses an overrun braking system that meets EC specifications and includes an auto-reverse feature as standard for enhanced safety. Additionally, all models come equipped with standard lighting for improved visibility during transport. Importantly, all versions of the C-1290 Drum Trailer are IVA approved, ensuring compliance with relevant safety and regulatory standards.
