Säiliörakenne – other models: the collective page of Finnish tank trailers outside the named ranges, from SV25 and SV32 to SP21/6500 and 480/20T, 4,050 to 7,900 kg unladen weight, 20,000 to 38,000 kg gross weight

This page gathers the trailers of the Finnish brand Säiliörakenne, which the register could not assign to a named range. The name means tank building, or vessel building, in Finnish, describing the brand's programme directly: type codes such as SV25, SV31, SV32 and SP21 carry an attached number for the body length or equipment variant, for instance SV25/6350 or SV32/6500. As a Finnish register entry, the model data comes from Traficom registration records.

The register lists here 14 versions with unladen weights from 4,050 to 7,900 kg, gross weights from 20,000 to 38,000 kg, lengths from 6,750 to 10,650 mm and widths from 2,450 to 2,500 mm.

With gross weights of up to 38 tonnes, the tank trailers are built for the transport of liquids and bulk goods, as is common in Finnish agriculture and forestry as well as freight transport behind suitably rated lorries. Driving such a combination requires a category C or C+E licence.

On a used tank trailer, the tightness of the vessel, the condition of valves and connections, corrosion on frame and mounts, the function of the brakes, and lighting and tyres all count above all. Parts for such small brands usually run through independent commercial-vehicle workshops. On tank bodies, checking for leaks and material fatigue in the vessel itself also belongs to the inspection before the first drive.

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.
  • Compare the chassis number with the papers.
  • Look at the floor, cover or body from the inside — rust does not show from outside.
