Blumhardt – other trailers: the collective page of models from the historic Wuppertal semi-trailer builder outside the named ranges, 1.3 to 7.75 t unladen weight, up to 39 t gross weight

This page gathers the Blumhardt trailers and semi-trailers the register could not assign to a named range. Blumhardt was a German semi-trailer builder based in Wuppertal; the models range from semi-trailers such as the SAL 24.10.107Z or BWB 23.27 through the tank semi-trailer CONT SAL 40.18E to special bodies such as the TLR VAN 10T or the ANTENNEWAGEN for transport and communication tasks.

The register lists here 17 versions with unladen weights from 1,300 to 7,750 kg, gross weights from 2,700 to 39,000 kg, lengths from 6,200 to 13,800 mm and widths from 2,180 to 2,550 mm.

The span from light trailers to heavy semi-trailers shows the maker's broad production programme between classic goods transport and special vehicles; as the brand is no longer active on the market, these vehicles today are found mostly as older stock in the used market and at specialist commercial-vehicle firms, often after many years of service and several changes of owner.

On used units, especially these older vehicles, the condition of frame and chassis rails against rust-through counts in particular, axles and brake system, the condition of the bodies and side boards, and the function of the lighting; as the maker no longer exists, parts must be sourced through independent commercial-vehicle suppliers or as reproductions.

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.
