This is a used flatbed semi-trailer — sometimes referred to as a flat-deck trailer — manufactured by Krone and currently located in France. Flatbed semi-trailers are widely used in road freight for transporting heavy, oversized, or palletised loads that do not require enclosed protection, and are a staple of road haulage across Europe. Krone is a well-established German manufacturer with a long history of producing semi-trailers, curtainsiders, refrigerated trailers, and other commercial transport equipment for the logistics and freight industry.
This unit dates from 20 June 2014 and carries a gross vehicle weight rating of 38 tonnes, with an unladen weight of 5.6 tonnes. It runs on three SAF axles, two of which are liftable, allowing the operator to raise unused axles when running empty or lightly loaded to reduce tyre wear and rolling resistance. The suspension system is air-based, providing a smoother ride and better load protection compared to traditional leaf-spring setups.
Braking is handled by disc brakes across the axle configuration, and the trailer is fitted with ABS for improved stopping control and compliance with modern road safety standards. The wheels are Alcoa aluminium alloy rims, which offer a weight saving over steel equivalents while also providing good durability and a clean appearance. The registration number is DG 089 WT, and the most recent MINES inspection was carried out on 4 July 2023, indicating that the trailer has been through a recent roadworthiness examination. The internal reference numbers D: 5710 and photos 7219–7230 are associated with this listing. The vehicle is available for viewing at SAVIM, 165 Chemin du Guigonnet, 13270 Fos-sur-Mer, France.
