Sommer – other models: the collective page of heavy low-loader and special trailers outside the named ranges, SW, SG and SP ranges with Gooseneck versions, 1.3 to 17.4 t unladen weight, up to 45 t gross weight
This page gathers the Sommer trailers the register could not assign to a named range. The type plates show several letter ranges – SW, SG, SP and AW – followed by a number for the weight or payload class; part of the SW range carries the spelled-out suffix "Gooseneck" for the detachable neck extension that couples tractor unit and low-loader directly and allows a lower loading height.

The register lists here 77 versions with unladen weights from 1,310 to 17,392 kg, gross weights from 3,000 to 45,000 kg, lengths from 5,141 to 19,600 mm and widths from 2,220 to 3,000 mm; values that clearly place the heavier versions in vehicle class O4 (over 10 t) and point to low-loader combinations with an extendable frame for long loads.
Low-loaders of this size carry construction machinery, farm machinery and other oversized or overweight goods, with the gooseneck design allowing a low loading height and thus greater clearance under bridges; they are standard equipment at construction-machinery rental firms and heavy-haulage hauliers.
When buying used, what matters is rust and cracks in the chassis, especially around the gooseneck and coupling plate, the condition of the hydraulics (ramps, extendable frame), the function of the brake system, the condition of axles and tyres, and a complete service history; a valid roadworthiness inspection and, where needed, a special permit for width or weight are prerequisites. Spares run through Sommer and the common commercial-vehicle suppliers.

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.
