The register lists 6 versions with unladen weights from 5,390 to 8,740 kg, gross vehicle weights from 28,000 to 35,000 kg, lengths from 13.75 to 13.90 m and a constant width of 2.55 m.

Kel-Berg supplies mainly the Scandinavian and northern European market with semi-trailers for standard and special transport; the D500V range sits in the size class of typical long-haul semi-trailers at full combination length. In long-haul use such a semi-trailer typically works for several years in two-shift operation before moving into the used market for shorter, regional routes.

When buying used, what counts in this semi-trailer class is the condition of the kingpin, landing legs and axle assemblies, corrosion on the chassis and side panels from Scandinavian winter road salt, the function of the braking system, and the condition of tyres and lighting; a current inspection report should be in place before purchase. Checking that the chassis number matches the registration papers, and reviewing the service book, also belong to the pre-purchase inspection.

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.
