HookLoada HL160

Compact trailer designed for intensive professional use

High-quality tandem-axle trailer

Stronga hold a reputation for manufacturing the highest quality tandem-axle trailers available in the hooklift market. The HL160 model follows suit with a design that is packed full of reliability, innovation, creativity and expertise.

Think reliable. Think HL160.

Extraordinary range of well-proven products

Stronga have been designing and manufacturing hook lift trailers for many decades and we market an extraordinarily wide range of well-proven products, each of which is tailored to your specific tractor and application. Fitting in to the lower end of the HookLoada range, the HL160 model reliably mounts and transports containers up to 16 tonnes in weight.



That's great efficiency from our smallest telescopic tower HookLoada.

Light-touch but tough

The HL160 hook lift trailer typically operates in agriculture, construction, landscaping and municipal applications. With the focus on an ultra-light dead weight, this mid-range hook lift trailer was built to provide a fantastic 16 tonne payload to handle roll-off containers up to 6100mm in length. That’s great power from a compact design.

The special hydraulic container locking system comes as standard, while operation from the tractor cab is only made possible using the easy-to-use electric remote control.

Meeting professional demands

HL160 is the model which meets the quality and equipment availability demands of the mid-output professional operator. As well as being flexible by design, this hook lift trailer has maximum strength and rigidity in terms of deformation and twisting. Through clever construction and the use of high strength steels, HL160 remains completely stable during both tipping and hooking operations.
