Schier – other models: collective page of heavy trailers, 4 versions, unladen weight from 8,350 to 17,590 kg, gross weight from 18,000 to 36,000 kg, length from 13,600 to 14,000 mm
This collective page gathers the Schier trailers that the register could not assign to a named range. The models SSA-18-Mega and SSA-36-Jumbo carry Mega and Jumbo, terms established in the commercial-vehicle trade for high-volume curtainsider bodies with maximum load capacity, while the leading numbers 18 and 36 name the respective weight class in tonnes.

The register lists here 4 versions with unladen weights from 8,350 to 17,590 kg at a gross weight of 18,000 to 36,000 kg. Lengths range from 13,600 to 14,000 mm, and the width is 2,550 mm.
At gross weights of 18 to 36 tonnes, the Schier trailers sit clearly in the heavy class above 10 tonnes, as used for drawbar or centre-axle trailers in road-train combinations behind tractor units or lorries. Mega and Jumbo bodies maximise load volume for light, bulky goods in general long-haul transport, while the uniform width of 2.55 metres stays within standard dimensions for ordinary road transport.
When buying used at these weight classes, check above all the frame and axle assemblies for fatigue cracks, the braking system of the tandem or tridem axles, and the drawbar eye and fifth-wheel coupling for wear. The curtainsider tarpaulin should be checked for tears and the tensioning mechanism for function; tyres and brake linings matter greatly given these axle loads, as does the condition of the load platform boards for sagging.

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.
