The register lists here 4 versions with unladen weights from 6,275 to 11,600 kg, gross weights from 40,500 to 50,000 kg, lengths from 11,910 to 16,000 mm and a uniform width of 2,550 mm.

At gross weights of 40.5 to 50 tonnes and lengths of up to 16 metres, all versions belong to the heavy long-haul semi-trailer class, used for general cargo, machinery or heavy loads. The wide spread of unladen weights from 6.3 to 11.6 tonnes at a similar gross weight shows markedly different payload reserves between the lighter and reinforced versions.

On a used semi-trailer of this class, axle, brake system and frame condition, the function of air suspension and brake valves, corrosion on the fifth-wheel plate and landing legs, and tyre and rim condition all count. Parts for trailers of this weight typically come through independent commercial-vehicle workshops and axle makers rather than a narrow manufacturer network. On the longer versions, checking for frame deflection and lashing points also belongs on the pre-drive list.
