Karfa – further models: semi-trailers and heavy trailers from Karsdorf in Saxony-Anhalt outside the named series, gross weight 23,400 to 37,000 kg, lengths 13,550 to 13,830 mm
This page gathers the Karfa-brand trailers from Karsdorf in Saxony-Anhalt that the register could not assign to a named series. Type names such as JK 333 and KH 234 follow the manufacturer's own numbering for semi-trailers and heavy trailers with a long wheelbase.

The register lists 3 versions here with unladen weights from 7,050 to 7,630 kg, gross weights from 23,400 to 37,000 kg, a length of 13,550 to 13,830 mm and a width of 2,550 mm.
At over 13.5 metres long and gross weights up to 37 tonnes, the Karfa trailers belong to the long semi-trailers and low-loaders for general and heavy cargo, as used by haulage firms in the central German region around Karsdorf. With gross weights well above 10 tonnes, all versions fall into EU vehicle category O4 for trailers and semi-trailers, which may only be towed by suitably approved tractor units.
When buying used, the frame and chassis rails on this long design need particular checking for deflection and cracks, along with the axles, braking system, overrun brake device and drawbar eye, and the condition of side panels and load bed; spare parts for these older trailers are usually only available through the independent commercial-vehicle trade. Underrun protection, mudguards and the condition of the brake and lighting connection lines are also worth checking, along with tyre age via the DOT date code.
