The register lists here 6 versions with unladen weights from 7,290 to 9,330 kg, gross weights from 39,000 to 42,000 kg, lengths from 13,890 to 14,000 mm and widths from 2,550 to 2,600 mm.

With lengths close to the European maximum for articulated combinations and gross weights up to 42 tonnes, the SK024 range is among the heaviest semi-trailer types in the register and is built for long-haul work at maximum payload, as is common in European haulage between major transshipment hubs. Such semi-trailers typically run in rotation behind several tractor units and cover correspondingly high mileages.

When buying used, check the chassis and side rails for cracking around the axle suspension, the condition of the braking system and air suspension, the operation of the cooling unit on equipped models, and the kingpin and landing legs. On the long versions it is also worth checking the underrun protection mountings, the condition of the floor, possible corrosion around the rear-axle wheel arches, and on units with a cooling aggregate its recorded running hours.

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.
