Hoet Trailers Other models

The register lists 4 versions here with kerb weights from 7,120 to 16,080 kg and gross vehicle weights from 41,000 to 44,000 kg. Lengths range from 11,070 to 14,040 mm, widths from 2,550 to 2,600 mm.

Such semi-trailers are designed for heavy long-distance haulage and construction-site logistics, carrying containers, bulk goods or construction machinery behind class N3 tractor units, with the load spread across several axles being what allows such a high gross vehicle weight while keeping the unit manoeuvrable on tight sites.

When buying used, check the condition of axles, brake system and air suspension, rust on the chassis and side rails, the tightness of the hydraulics, plus wear on tyres and brake linings; the condition of the fifth-wheel plate, the inspection history of axle loads and the soundness of the side-rail welds give further insight into prior use, as does the condition of the tool-box locks and outline marker lights.
