Broshuis 3ABSD-48 – three-axle low-loader from the Dutch manufacturer in Kampen: 5 versions, gross weight 42,500–53,000 kg, widths up to 2,750 mm
Broshuis is a Dutch manufacturer of low-loaders and semi-trailers for heavy and abnormal transport, based in Kampen. The 3ABSD-48 range denotes a three-axle low-loader of this payload class; the SL suffix and the 80KM/H marking indicate individual versions and their permitted top speed. Trailers and semi-trailers in this weight class fall under EU vehicle category O4 (trailers over 10 tonnes gross weight), the category of heavy semi-trailers and low-loaders for commercial freight and heavy transport.

The register lists here 5 versions with unladen weights from 12,240 to 16,950 kg at a gross weight of 42,500 to 53,000 kg. Widths range from 2,550 to 2,750 mm.
With a gross weight of 42.5 to 53 tonnes, the 3ABSD-48 range sits in the medium-heavy segment of low-loaders – lighter than five-axle versions for extremely heavy loads, but heavier than standard semi-trailers, suited to construction machinery and mid-size industrial goods.
When buying a used low-loader in this class, check the chassis and loading deck for deformation and cracks, the axles, steering and braking system, and, on hydraulically lowering versions, the condition of the hydraulic cylinders and pumps. Spare parts for axle units and hydraulics are available through Broshuis and the specialist heavy-trailer trade. It is also worth checking tyre age and tread depth, the function of the lighting system together with reflective markings, and proof of the periodic roadworthiness 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.
