Nooteboom MC0 – heavy semi-trailer range from the Dutch manufacturer: 36,000 to 70,000 kg gross weight, 10,520 to 17,420 kg unladen weight, 13.1 to 13.75 m length

This page gathers the MC0 range from the Dutch heavy-haulage specialist Nooteboom of Wijchen, the upper segment for transporting exceptionally heavy loads. The models from MC0 38 02 to MC0 85 05V use the first number to give the payload class in tonnes, the following digits the axle count and version, while V and L mark versions with a lengthened or reinforced frame.

The register lists here 10 versions with unladen weights from 10,520 to 17,420 kg, gross weights from 36,000 to 70,000 kg, lengths from 13,100 to 13,750 mm and widths from 2,470 to 2,550 mm.

With gross weights up to 70 tonnes, the MC0 range counts among Nooteboom's heavy modular semi-trailers for transporting transformers, construction machinery and industrial plant in abnormal-load haulage, where extra axle lines are coupled on and road-traffic permits obtained depending on the load.

As a heavy-load class O4 semi-trailer, the MC0 range needs an air brake system and driving licence category CE for towing; abnormal-load transport with extra coupled axle lines brings additional permit requirements. The design speed of some versions, limited to 80 to 100 km/h, is usual for modular heavy-load semi-trailers of this size and reflects the high axle loads.

On a used heavy-load semi-trailer of this class, the condition and history of the frame and main girders, the axle units and steering axles, the braking system and hydraulic level control, the kingpin and coupling points, and the complete inspection and registration history all count in particular; parts and service run through Nooteboom itself.

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.
