Sdc Trailers Other models

The register lists here 4 versions with unladen weights from 4,440 to 9,050 kg, gross weights from 27,000 to 54,000 kg, lengths from 9,360 to 21,200 mm and widths from 2,500 to 2,550 mm.

Semi-trailers of this size are towed behind tractor units in long-haul and heavy-haulage transport; the four-axle versions with high gross weight are designed for heavy and long loads, of the kind found in building-materials and machinery transport, while lengths well beyond 13.6 metres point to extendable low-loader designs for abnormal loads.

On a used example, the condition of the frame and axle assemblies, the function of the braking system with its EBS technology, the state of tyres and rims, the tightness and wear of hydraulic components on lowering or extending versions, and rust on load-bearing parts and the kingpin housing all count. Spare parts are supplied by the manufacturer through its own dealer network, which also serves customers beyond Britain and Ireland.
