Floor FLWA – trailer series in the register: from the FLWA 3A to the FLWA 20, unladen weight 3.0 to 7.3 t, gross weight 3.5 to 20 t

The FLWA series extends Floor's register listing with trailers of a wider weight range, from the FLWA 3A to the FLWA 20. The type designations come from Dutch vehicle registration data (RDW) and follow no explained letter logic. Unlike the heavy FLUO series, FLWA targeted operators who needed to switch between light and medium-heavy loads depending on the job, without keeping several specialised trailers.

The register lists here 6 versions with unladen weights from 3,000 to 7,320 kg, gross weights from 3,500 to 20,000 kg, a length of 8,400 mm and widths from 2,150 to 2,550 mm.

With gross weights from 3.5 to 20 tonnes, the FLWA range covers the span from light trailer to semi-trailer for medium-heavy loads, as found in construction and agricultural haulage and with smaller carriers. In the broad mid-market segment, such a series competes with versatile suppliers like Pacton or Van Eck; used FLWA trailers today mostly serve smaller hauliers and trade businesses.

Checks when buying used include the frame and load bed for corrosion, the condition of axles, brakes and tyres, the function of the overrun brake or kingpin, and lighting and underrun protection; on the heavier versions it is also worth checking the air suspension. It is also worth checking the coupling or kingpin for play, and the condition of the brake lines and electrical connectors.

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.
