Gs AC – range of heavy semi-trailers, 20 to 36 tonnes gross weight, unladen weight 3,640 to 9,120 kg, lengths of 9.05 to 11.75 m
This page gathers the semi-trailers of the AC range of the Gs brand. The type designation combines the code AC with a four-digit number for the weight class, for example AC 2800 or AC 3000, plus letter suffixes K, L, N, R, U and V for axle count and equipment, for example AC 2800 K or AC 3000 R.

The register lists here 24 versions with unladen weights from 3,640 to 9,120 kg and gross weights from 20,000 to 36,000 kg, at lengths from 9,050 to 11,746 mm and widths from 2,450 to 2,600 mm.
The AC range thus sits in class O4 of heavy semi-trailers, towed behind tractor units for bulk and general-cargo haulage in commercial transport. The narrow band of model names around 2800 and 3000 points to a range with few, finely graded base sizes tailored by letter suffixes to different customer needs. The vehicles are usually run in fixed haulage fleets over many years in two-shift operation, which shows in their overall condition.
On a used example, rust and deformation of the chassis, the condition of axles, the braking system and suspension, kingpin and landing legs, and the tightness of the body count; on curtain-sided versions also the condition of the tilt bows and tensioning catches, plus a look at the service history and any signs of past accident repair. Spare parts run through the open trailer 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.
