Galtrailer – other models: the collective page of Portuguese heavy-haulage and low-loader semi-trailers outside the named ranges, with the types B2MD, B2PS, B3RDS and TCR4, up to 90 tonnes gross weight
This page gathers the Galtrailer trailers the register could not assign to a named range. Galtrailer is a Portuguese semi-trailer manufacturer based in Águeda, which alongside standard semi-trailers also builds heavy-haulage and low-loader versions for transporting large and heavy goods. The type designations B2MD, B2PS, B3RDS and TCR4 and the modularly composed codes such as PM4 PD DH SH PC point to the axle count and build shape of the respective version.

The register lists here 6 versions with unladen weights from 5,000 to 16,000 kg, gross weights from 39,000 to 90,000 kg, lengths from 8,605 to 23,855 mm and widths from 2,520 to 3,000 mm.
Heavy-haulage and low-loader semi-trailers of this size carry construction machinery, industrial plant, wind-turbine and precast-concrete parts in special transport, often with an extendable frame for overlong loads; the weight span up to 90 tonnes and lengths up to almost 24 metres show a range extending into permit-required heavy haulage.
On a used heavy-haulage semi-trailer, the frame and axles, the condition of the hydraulics for steering axles and frame adjustment, brakes and tyres, and the kingpin and landing legs count; wear on the axle units and rust on load-bearing parts are the most common faults. Spare parts are supplied by the manufacturer and the European heavy-haulage vehicle trade.

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.
