NEW: The Schmitz Cargobull S.CS X-TOUGH curtainsider semi-trailer with robust and durable chassis

November 2023 – The robust S.CS X-TOUGH curtainsider semi-trailer has been specially developed for France and countries with a 44-t total weight limit. It blends in perfectly with the rest of Schmitz Cargobull’s chassis range with its galvanised and bolted chassis. The X-Tough chassis was designed for heavy duty market requirements and impresses with its high bending and torsional strength.

The vehicle features cross beams in the chassis structure, making it particularly robust. The floor is made of 30-mm-thick plywood, which was designed for high frequency loading and unloading operations with high forklift axle loads. This extreme level of durability and stability can prevent floor damage caused by rear-heavy loads and forklift use. As a result, this significantly reduces any resulting downtime, vehicle repair and spare parts costs.   

Designed for heavy duty market requirements

The chassis can be combined with various bodies, such as the lath-free POWER CURTAIN. Also, in terms of the chassis itself, the modular design allows for simple spare parts procurement and a high level of repair friendliness. The galvanisation makes the chassis corrosion-resistant and offers optimum protection against rust-through. Schmitz Cargobull provides a ten-year warranty against rust-through on all galvanised parts in the chassis.
