Hf 5LBWBPE – EU category O4 trailer, built between 2014 and 2017: 42,000 kg gross weight, 30,930 kg payload, 11.85 m length, 2.55 m width.
With a gross weight of 42,000 kg, the Hf 5LBWBPE falls into EU trailer class O4, the heavy trailers and semi-trailers above 10 tonnes used in heavy-haulage and long-distance transport. Vehicles of this kind regularly run in Finland and much of Northern Europe coupled to heavy tractor units.

With an unladen weight of 11,070 kg, payload comes to 30,930 kg, almost three-quarters of the gross weight. At 11.85 m long and 2.55 m wide, the trailer sits near the upper limit of what is permitted on European roads without a special permit, placing it among the largest regularly registered trailers.
Trailers of this weight class are fitted with air brakes rather than the simple overrun brake used on light trailers. Towing it as a combination requires driving licence category C1E or CE in the EU, depending on the combined train weight. The high ratio of payload to unladen weight makes it an economical carrier for heavy bulk or general cargo over long distances.
When buying a used trailer of this kind, check the condition of the air brake system including lines, brake cylinders and the compressor connection, rust on the frame and side members, the lighting along the full length of the vehicle, and the tyres and wheel bearings. Given such a high payload share, it is also worth checking the frame for fatigue cracks from frequent full loading and the axle suspension for wear.

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.
