Robustness and durability combined with more loading volume
November 2025 - The robust S.CS X-TOUGH curtainsider semi-trailer has been specially developed for countries with a gross vehicle weight of 44 tonnes or more and fits seamlessly into the Schmitz Cargobull range with galvanised and bolted chassis. The S.CS X-TOUGH chassis is designed for market requirements with a total weight of over 40 tonnes and impresses with its high bending and torsional strength. With cross member spacings of less than 400mm in the chassis structure, the vehicle is particularly robust and resilient. The 30mm plywood floor is specially designed for intensive handling with forklift trucks. The standard load capacity is 9.5 tonnes.
VARIOS body - for more loading volume
When transporting palletised freight or general cargo, the VARIOS body impresses with its variable loading volume. The body has a lifting roof with a manual stanchion lift. The required body heights can be adjusted in stages with little effort. The simple and robust mechanism enables easy, safe and fast handling. The required loading space capacity can therefore be adjusted as required. The continuous lashing holes in the outer frame provide a wide range of flexible lashing options for every application.
