Netam Fruehauf VR

The register lists six versions with kerb weights from 6,600 to 13,020 kg and gross vehicle weights from 16,000 to 39,000 kg. Lengths run from 12,500 to 13,980 mm, and widths from 2,500 to 2,600 mm.

With gross vehicle weights spanning 16,000 to 39,000 kg, the VR range covers a wide segment from medium to heavy trailers and is used in European long-haul transport. The VR range therefore also sits entirely within EU trailer class O4, for trailers with a gross vehicle weight over 10 tonnes. Trailers and semi-trailers of this kind are used mainly by hauliers, transport companies and rental fleets in commercial freight transport, which rely on robust, low-maintenance technology.

When buying used, a trailer of this class calls for a check of the axles, braking system and air suspension, along with the frame and load bed for corrosion and wear. Spare parts for axles, brakes and lighting are available from commercial vehicle specialists. Also worth checking are tyre tread depth and age, the condition of the brake and lighting connectors, and current inspection stickers and service history.
