Bulthuis TSSA – Dutch low-loader range from 5.4 to 38 t unladen weight at 28.5 to 43 t gross weight, 12.45 to 14.05 m long
This page gathers Bulthuis's TSSA range. It spans the TSSA 03, the TSSA 11, 13 and 14, and the TSSA 16, forming the heavier versions within the maker's Dutch low-loader line-up. Trailers of this type gather several models of similar construction that differ mainly in axle count and load rating.

The register lists here 5 versions with unladen weights from 5,360 to 38,000 kg at a gross weight of 28,480 to 43,000 kg, lengths from 12,450 to 14,050 mm and widths from 2,470 to 2,550 mm. This range, too, falls entirely into vehicle class O4, with a gross weight consistently above 10 t.
The wide unladen weight span shows the difference between lighter low-loaders for construction machinery and very heavy, multi-axle modular versions for indivisible heavy loads at the top of the range. Bulthuis thereby supplies haulage firms covering both standard and special transport; on the heaviest models, the unladen weight makes up a substantial share of the gross weight, pointing to a particularly robust chassis construction.
Buying used at this class, the points that matter are the condition of the ramps and hydraulics, wear on the axles and tyres, the function of the braking system, and cracks or corrosion on the chassis. On the heaviest versions, also check the steering axles and their control, and the validity of the periodic roadworthiness test.

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.
