Broshuis trailers over 10 t (Class O4) – the Dutch low-loader and modular specialist from Kampen: 478 versions for heavy and oversized transport, gross weights up to 99 t on multi-axle modular combinations

Class O4 groups, according to registration data from the Netherlands and Finland, all trailers with a permissible gross weight over 10 tonnes. Broshuis of Kampen in Overijssel specialises in extendable low-loader semi-trailers and modular axle-line combinations for heavy and oversized transport, such as carrying wind-turbine rotor blades and tower sections as well as construction machinery and industrial plant. The type codes in the register follow, as far as can be told, the Dutch industry logic of axle count and body type, though Broshuis does not disclose the designations in detail.

The register lists 478 versions with unladen weights of 2,360 to 50,730 kg and permissible gross weights of 11,000 to 99,000 kg – figures that, for the heaviest versions, fit multi-axle 3+5 and 4+5 modular combinations. Lengths are recorded for only 125 of the 478 models, ranging from 1,327 to 34,130 mm, and width for all 478 lies between 250 and 3,250 mm.

In the heavy and modular segment Broshuis competes with Nooteboom, Faymonville and Goldhofer; the register's span shows the range from compact semi-trailers to multi-axle special combinations for oversized loads.

On used examples, what counts is the condition and function of the hydraulic adjustment systems, the tightness of the cylinders, the condition of the axles and EBS braking system, frame corrosion especially on extendable frame sections, the kingpin and, on modular combinations, the connecting elements, and an unbroken inspection history; on heavy modular combinations, additionally the completeness and type approval of all axle lines.

What to check before buying

  • Search the frame and welds at the axle mounts — that is where cracks start.
  • Check the brakes and the last inspection in the papers.
  • Work the gross weight against the towing vehicle before buying.
  • Compare the chassis number with the papers.
  • Look at the floor, cover or body from the inside — rust does not show from outside.
