Kögel – other models: the collective page of semi-trailers outside the named ranges, from curtainsiders and box trailers to the Port container chassis in Simplex, Duplex and Triplex versions
Kögel of Burtenbach in Bavarian Swabia has been one of Germany's major semi-trailer builders since its founding in 1934 and, alongside Schmitz Cargobull and Krone, ranks among the leading names of the commercial-vehicle body industry. This page gathers the Kögel models the register could not assign to a named range – from curtainsiders through box bodies to tippers and the Port range of container chassis. The type logic combines letters for the body type with numbers for the payload class, though not every combination can be reliably reconstructed today; the Port models with the suffixes Simplex, Duplex and Triplex denote, by the naming logic, container chassis for 40-foot ISO containers with one, two or three axle lines.

The register lists here 136 versions with unladen weights from 1,370 to 11,810 kg, gross weights from 3,500 to 66,000 kg, lengths from 3,930 to 14,300 mm (recorded for 112 models) and widths from 2,300 to 2,600 mm.
Kögel thus covers the full breadth of the semi-trailer market – from the light curtainsider for general cargo to the heavy low-loader for construction machinery and abnormal loads, while specialised versions such as the container chassis serve mainly port-hinterland traffic.
On used semi-trailers, the frame and axle beams for corrosion, the brake system and EBS electronics, air-suspension bellows and dampers, the condition of landing legs and kingpin, the tarpaulin and stanchions on curtainsiders, the floor on box bodies, and the twistlocks and locking gear on container chassis all count; parts run through the Kögel service network.

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.
