Terex Launches TRX Series of Lightweight Booms

At The Utility Expo 2025, Terex Utilities launched its new TRX Series, a family of telescopic aerial devices designed for trouble truck and distribution work. The series is engineered to deliver superior lifting capacity, increased payload, and operational efficiency without the need for a CDL.

The TRX Series includes four models — TRX41, TRX48, TRX52, and TRX55 — with working heights ranging from 46 to 60 feet. Each are designed with a lightweight boom that is hundreds of pounds lighter than comparable legacy Terex models. The weight reduction translates into increased payload capacity up to 6,000 pounds, depending on body configuration and chassis class, the company said.

Other key features of the TRX Series include:

  • Platform capacity — All models support up to 500 pounds, with optional configurations available.
  • Simplified maintenance — Parts commonality across the TRX Series complements minimal maintenance requirements with the fiberglass bond on the boom.
  • Strength and reliability — The rectangular biaxial epoxy resin filament wound fiberglass boom provides stability and insulation.
  • Smooth controls and flexibility — Full-pressure hydraulic controls and a four-function single stick controller ensure efficient operation. All models carry a Category C ANSI A92.2 rating, with Category B available on select models.

Terex also introduced its new Ranger Jib featuring weight savings, improved pin design, enhanced articulation, and compatibility with aftermarket attachments.
