This page covers the HRA range from the commercial-vehicle builder Hüffermann of Neustadt am Rübenberge, which builds, among other things, roll-off container trailers. The register lists the versions HRA 36.12 LS, HRA 42.12, HRA 42.12 LS, HRA 42.13 LS and HRA 4212 side by side; the first two digit groups fall within the range's gross weight span, and the LS suffix denotes an equipment variant.

The register lists here 5 versions with unladen weights from 7,000 to 9,090 kg, gross weights from 36,000 to 50,000 kg, lengths from 15,450 to 15,975 mm and widths from 2,500 to 2,550 mm.

With gross weights of 36 to 50 tonnes and lengths of around 15.5 to 16 metres, the range falls into the class of multi-axle trailers for transporting swap bodies and containers, used in construction and waste-handling transport behind suitably rated tractor units. The small differences between the versions point to different axle and equipment variants of the same base design.

On a used example of this range, the condition and function of the hook-lift or swap-body mechanism, the condition and load rating of the axles, the function of the brake system, rust on frame and side members, and lighting and plug connections all count above all. Parts and service for Hüffermann run through the maker's own dealer and workshop network.

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.
