Tirsan – other models: the collective page of semi-trailers outside the named ranges from the Turkish maker Tırsan of Adapazarı, with types such as XBZ and XS/RS, 4.1 to 8.6 t unladen weight at 27 to 47 t gross weight

This page gathers the Tirsan semi-trailers the register could not assign to a named range. Tırsan Treyler, based in Adapazarı, Turkey, is one of the largest trailer makers in Europe and belongs to the Kässbohrer group; the range spans curtainsiders, refrigerated trailers and tankers and tippers. Among the type codes, OPEN LAADVLOER denotes an open load floor – Dutch for "open load floor" – while codes such as CS, JS, ME, MZ, SC, XBZ and XS mark the respective body form.

The register lists here 10 versions with unladen weights from 4,100 to 8,630 kg, gross weights from 27,000 to 47,000 kg, lengths from 12,700 to 13,980 mm and widths from 2,430 to 2,550 mm.

With gross weights up to 47 tonnes and lengths around 13.5 metres, these semi-trailers match the standard European dimensions for long-haul transport; Tırsan exports most of its output to Western Europe and, alongside Schmitz Cargobull and Krone, ranks among the more significant suppliers there. The Adapazarı plant supplies markets in Western Europe, the Middle East and North Africa.

On a used purchase, what matters on semi-trailers is the condition of kingpin and landing legs, corrosion on frame and cross members, axles, brakes and air suspension, the function of the curtain or refrigeration unit depending on the body, and lighting and connector cables; spare parts run through the Tırsan service 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.
