Broshuis 5ABSD-68 – five-axle low-loader from the Dutch manufacturer in Kampen for heavy transport: 6 versions, gross weight 68,000–75,000 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 5ABSD-68 range denotes a five-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 6 versions with unladen weights from 16,180 to 29,140 kg at a gross weight of 68,000 to 75,000 kg. Widths range from 2,550 to 2,750 mm.

With a gross weight of 68 to 75 tonnes, the 5ABSD-68 range ranks among the heavy low-loaders for transporting construction machinery, industrial equipment and other bulky, heavy loads, typical of the Dutch and central European heavy-haulage market.

When buying a used low-loader in this class, check above all the chassis and loading deck for deformation and cracks, the axles, steering and braking system of the multi-axle bogies, 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.
