Limetec Other models

The register lists 47 versions here with a kerb weight of 2,120 to 14,400 kg and a gross weight of 18,000 to 54,000 kg. Widths range from 2,500 to 2,600 mm, lengths from 5,070 to 16,000 mm.

With a gross weight of up to 54 tonnes, the entire collector page sits in the O4 class for heavy semi-trailers, of the kind used in heavy-haulage and construction-machinery transport as well as international freight. Such semi-trailers are common among haulage firms and in abnormal-load transport, where high payload and long load areas are required.

When buying a used heavy semi-trailer, check the frame and axle assemblies for cracks, wear and play, and the braking system together with the air supply for leak-tightness and correct function. The kingpin, landing legs and lashing points should be checked; parts for axles, brakes and semi-trailer couplings are available from commercial-vehicle dealers. On the larger versions, it is also worth checking the condition of the air suspension and the brake-line connections to the towing vehicle.
