Hanomag-Henschel – other truck models: the collective page of series outside the named types, from the F range to the heavy H trucks, four to ten cylinders, 2.0 to 15.8 litres displacement
This page gathers Hanomag and Henschel trucks the register could not assign to a named series. Hanomag of Hanover and Henschel of Kassel, both German vehicle and machine builders with a long history, merged their commercial-vehicle divisions into Hanomag-Henschel in 1969; Daimler-Benz took a stake in 1971, and from 1974 the trucks continued as Mercedes-Benz. The holdings consist mainly of the F range of medium and heavy trucks, from the F 45 to the F 86, and the H range of heavy Henschel trucks such as the H 140 and H 261, whose numbers roughly give the payload or engine-power class and whose letter suffixes mark chassis and drive variants.

The register lists here 45 versions with four- to ten-cylinder engines, displacements of 1,999 to 15,843 cm³, unladen weights of 2,206 to 11,195 kg, gross weights of 3,500 to 25,000 kg, lengths of 5,360 to 8,250 mm and widths of 2,050 to 2,550 mm.
Hanomag and Henschel were among the formative German truck makers of the post-war period before their models were absorbed into the Mercedes-Benz programme; the F and H ranges today are mainly of interest to classic-vehicle collectors and museums of German commercial-vehicle history.
On a used example of these classics, rust on the frame, cab and load bed, the condition of the engine and injection pump, the brake system and transmission, and the parts supply, which today runs almost exclusively through specialist classic-vehicle dealers and reproductions, all count.
