Finnkuko Other models

The register lists 11 versions here with kerb weights from 7,800 to 10,200 kg, gross vehicle weights from 39,000 to 60,000 kg, lengths from 12,210 to 16,500 mm and widths from 2,550 to 3,200 mm.

With gross vehicle weights up to 60 tonnes and widths up to 3.2 metres, the range targets loads that exceed the dimensions of standard semi-trailers, such as construction machinery, transformers or plant components. In this Finnish heavy and abnormal-load transport segment, multi-axle low-loader platforms with a wide, low-slung load bed compete alongside the standard semi-trailers of the large commercial-vehicle makers.

When buying one of these heavy-haul semi-trailers used, check the frame and chassis rails for cracks and corrosion, the axle units and their steering and lift function, the brake system with its pads and lines, and the kingpin and landing legs of the multi-axle chassis. Parts for axles, suspension and brakes come from the general commercial-vehicle trade, while frame repairs require specialist bodybuilders.
