General Trailers – other models: French semi-trailers, successor to Fruehauf, outside the named ranges, 2.7 to 42 t gross vehicle weight, 6.9 to 14.05 m length
General Trailers is a French semi-trailer manufacturer that emerged as the successor to Fruehauf in France; individual model names such as "FRUEHAUF ONCZ 36-324 A" on this page still point directly to that origin. This page gathers the models outside the named ranges, with the type codes ONCR/ONCRS/ONCRK, TF and RC for different body types and the DX series. Body types range from flatbeds through refrigerated and curtainside semi-trailers to box semi-trailers.

The register lists here 24 versions with gross vehicle weights from 2,700 to 42,000 kg, lengths from 6,900 to 14,050 mm and widths from 2,450 to 2,600 mm.
With gross vehicle weights of up to 42 tonnes, the range covers the classic three-axle standard semi-trailers for long-haul transport, as used by French and southern European hauliers in combined operation with tractor units; General Trailers competes there with Krone, Schmitz Cargobull and Kögel. As the successor brand to Fruehauf, the company benefits from an established name in the French long-haul market.
When buying used, the condition of the chassis and kingpin matters, the brake system with ABS/EBS, axles and air suspension, the condition of the tarpaulin or flatbed depending on the body type, and the function of the landing legs. Parts for axles, brakes and lighting are available through the general semi-trailer parts trade, specific chassis parts more through workshops specialising in French trailers.

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.
