The Thomson Cable Trailer is an ideal solution for laying cable in restricted working locations such as tunnels.

Manually operated hydraulic lift arms mean that this trailer is totally self-contained.

The Cable Trailer can load itself with drums placed in the four-foot and it incorporates the same low rolling resistance drum shaft supports as our other drum handlers making it ideal for delicate cables as well as heavy power lines.

Automatic, fail-safe brakes are fitted as standard and options include powered shaft operation and shaft braking.

The unit pictured here was built specially for the extension of London Underground lines into Heathrow Terminal 5 where it successfully layed tens of kilometres of power and signal cables.
