Transcraft Corp and Aero Industries have joined to offer a special option with the purchase of a new Transcraft trailer — a covered flatbed.
The Conestoga rolling tarp system converts a flatbed trailer into a fully covered van, yet allows the trailer to be loaded or unloaded from the back, overhead, or either side. The Conestoga's locking mechanisms are entirely ground-operated. A single turn of a handle locks and unlocks the system, and eliminates the need to climb on the trailer or hassle with ratchets or straps to secure the tarp.
The Conestoga offers pressed bearing steel wheels that ride on the aluminum track's stainless steel insert. This steel-on-steel design offers years of dependable operation. The aluminum track also contains a built-in bump rail to protect the Conestoga during loading and unloading, and a rubber gasket to provide a weathertight seal.
Other features include uplift bows to maximize inside loading clearance, aluminum bulkheads with built-in wind deflectors to maximize tarp life and increase fuel mileage; and rear-end options including curtains and swinging rear doors. Other options include a DOT bulkhead and custom tarp graphics.
