Talbert non-ground bearing hydraulic detachable gooseneck trailers have undergone a series of design adjustments since their inception in 1962

Talbert Manufacturing recently celebrated the 75th anniversary of the release of its non-ground bearing removable gooseneck trailer. First introduced in 1947, the removable gooseneck technology revolutionized safety in the heavy haul trailer industry. Since its inception, Talbert has designed two different removable gooseneck trailers: the hydraulic detachable gooseneck trailers and the mechanical detachable gooseneck trailers.

The non-ground bearing hydraulic detachable gooseneck trailers were first introduced in 1962. The design increases safety throughout the loading and unloading process by offering ample clearance and stability.

In 1989, Talbert designed and patented the mechanical removable gooseneck trailer. The mechanical gooseneck trailers are more lightweight than their hydraulic counterparts and don’t require hydraulics to position them.

“When it comes to our trailers, there’s so much to consider outside the type of neck or trailer weight capacity. That’s why each trailer is built to the needs of the operator,” said Troy Geisler, Talbert Manufacturing’s vice president of sales and marketing.
