Charleroi Constructions Other models

The register lists here 3 versions with unladen weights from 5,480 to 8,690 kg, gross weights from 27,000 to 39,000 kg, lengths from 10,160 to 12,700 mm and widths from 2,520 to 2,570 mm.

Semi-trailers of this weight class have to carry air brakes; the tow vehicle required is a tractor unit with licence category CE. The rear underrun guard is a legal requirement on this vehicle class and protects following cars from sliding underneath the semi-trailer.

Semi-trailers of this weight class run in Belgian and Western European building-material and heavy-goods transport, where they operate behind tractor units up to the permitted gross train weight; the spread of unladen weights from 5.5 to 8.7 t reflects differently reinforced frames and bodies within the same load class.

On used semi-trailers, frame and axle condition, the braking system, rust on the chassis rails and body, the fifth-wheel coupling and underrun guard, and the condition of tyres and rims count; parts run through Charleroi Constructions and the Belgian and French trailer suppliers.
