Käyttöauto – further models: collection page for heavy Finnish trailers without a distinct manufacturer name, V31 to V52 type range, 5.85 to 11.2 t unladen weight, up to 50 t gross vehicle weight
In the Finnish vehicle register, Käyttöauto is not a brand name but the Finnish word for a utility or working vehicle; this collective term here covers trailers to which the register does not assign a distinct manufacturer name. The actual type codes follow a consistent pattern of size and equipment: the number 31, 42 or 52 is followed by letter codes such as AL, ALK, HTK, KVA, SAV, SKA, VL or VLK for different body and equipment variants, supplemented by the standalone model P32-HTK.

The register lists 22 versions here with an unladen weight of 5,850 to 11,200 kg and a gross vehicle weight of 30,000 to 50,000 kg. Lengths range from 8,500 to 18,200 mm, and the width sits at 2,500 to 2,600 mm.
With lengths of over 18 m and gross weights up to 50 t, these trailers belong to the heavy class of full trailers and drawbar trailers used in Finnish heavy-haulage and forestry transport behind correspondingly rated combinations.
When buying used, for this trailer class the condition of the axle assemblies and the braking system along the full length of the vehicle matters most, along with corrosion and cracks in the frame and the condition of the tow eye and drawbar connecting to the towing vehicle. For the numerous similarly named V variants, matching the exact type designation against the Finnish registration certificate is worthwhile.

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.
