What happens here

The demonstration continues with an even heavier piece of equipment: a Bobcat skid steer. The skid steer drives onto the 12-foot hydraulic beavertail, further showcasing its ability to support substantial weight without issue. The representative emphasizes that this ramp is designed to lift up to 10,500 lbs and can safely transport a locked load of 8,000 lbs.

Goal: Confirm the ramp's high load capacity with heavy machinery.

Tools and materials

  • Bobcat Skid Steer Bobcat — As a heavier load for testing the ramp's capacity
  • Remote Control — Operating the hydraulic beavertail ramp

foots that's all I've ever seen so 12 is the biggest that's ridiculous go big or go home welcome to Canada hey I got a question for you guys do you know how much the skid loader weighs any of you guys not probably about 1,000 lb probably something like that how much 13 13,000 you think this one weighs 13,000 lb not be quite but should we try lifting it up on their ramp would you want to drive up on the just without the load just drive on the ramp we'll see if that ramp can lift you guys up you want to try it all right let's see I'll see it let's let's do it 10,000 lift we just checked the specs on that that's 10,500 lb so we said it would lift 10 in the middle Yeah by Southland trailers really long how big of a load can you safely haul just on the ramp nothing else but just from this point bass Awards 8,000 lb Lock and Load dead center 4 tons right in the middle you can actually haul 8,000 lb back here absolutely right here how much can the whole trailer haul well now I have to do my math 24 plus a 20% 25% tongue weight 30,000 lb 30,000 lb and this is not your big trade no we're going to look at one that blows this one out of the water it's a hot shotter's Dream It's a hot shotter absolute dream and we are going to see that in just a minute Trevor what do we got with this one what's the specs on it so we're 40 ft overall tandem 16,000 lb axles this is our engineered trailer which makes it a lightweight trailer we talk a lot about strength to weight ratio we want to put as much payload as we possibly can on it this trailer weighs in net 7200 lb 30,000 PB gross overall 7200 lb net so for Hot Shots it's all about how much they can haul that's how they get paid what would like the equivalent in an aluminum trailer something that's lighter coming at yeah 7,000 lb for a 40t aluminum goose neck so 200 lb difference 200 lb difference and you wouldn't get the hydraulic beaver tail you wouldn't have that 12T hydraulic beaver tail you would have your standard little 5-ft beaver tail with 5ot fold over ramps so you're manually picking up manually doing the ramps yeah 100% what about price yeah this is going to be a third of the cost from an aluminum
