PALMS 15U TRAILER
PALMS 15U Forestry Trailer — Your Ultimate Hauling Solution, 15-Ton
The PALMS 15U is the flagship choice for operators who need maximum payload and durability every day. With a 15-ton nominal load capacity and the highest permissible gross weight in the PALMS lineup, the 15U is engineered for demanding, professional forestry work where uptime and stability matter. Its high clearance and oval-frame chassis help the trailer ride over stumps and rough ground instead of hanging up, keeping forwarding smooth and productive.
For long service life in harsh conditions, all hydraulic and electronic components are securely housed within the frame—shielded from impacts and debris while remaining accessible for maintenance. Under crane work, the 15U’s heavy-duty build supports confident loading across mixed log lengths and variable terrain, making it ideal for extraction, landing work, and staging timber for biomass/biofuel or animal bedding operations. Pair the 15U with PALMS cranes and accessories to tailor reach, lift, bunks and load-secure solutions to your workflow.
As the preferred NZ & AU dealer, ALFA Equipment will help you spec the 15U for your tractor and terrain, ensure compliant setup, and back you with demos, finance, parts, and nationwide after-sales support—so your trailer arrives ready to work and stays productive.
