A semi-trailer is a vehicle whose front part is attached to a truck tractor and rests on it. It moves thanks to the draft power of the truck engine. The three-axle flatbed semi-trailer MAZ-9758 is produced by the Minsk Automobile Plant. It is made like a van. Recommended for use when transporting goods in the international transport system. It meets all the requirements of European standards (Tir).
MAZ-9758 is designed for transporting various types of cargo on public roads as part of a road train.
Semi-trailer dimensions
The MAZ-9758 semi-trailer weighs 8.5 thousand kilograms. It is capable of transporting cargo with a total weight of 26,000 kg. Thus, its total weight reaches 34.5 thousand kilograms. This mass is divided into two parts: the fifth wheel of the tractor and the trolley. In the first case, the mass is 10.5 thousand kilograms. Accordingly, the trolley accounts for most of the total weight, which is 24,000.
The dimensions of the semi-trailer are standard for this type of vehicle. The length of the platform is 13,485 millimeters. Its width reaches 2440 mm. The height of the platform is 2480 mm. Based on these dimensions, it can be calculated that the floor area in the semi-trailer is 33 square meters. Taking into account the height, it turns out that the volume of the platform reaches 82 cubic meters.
Characteristics of serial number 5323
March 1981 is considered the beginning of the glorious journey of the MAZ 5232 tractor. Its carrying capacity was just over twenty tons, the unit weighed 34 tons. The car had a comfortable cabin, which even included a sleeping place. Back then it was still a notable innovation.
The tractors have become the best vehicles in their class. The model won prizes at international exhibition forums.
Specialists from MAN took an active part in the design of the model. In 1988, the engines of German motorists appeared on the MAZ 54323, which had a positive effect on the technical characteristics of the car.
Production of this model ended only in 2008. They were replaced by MAZ 5440 series cars.
Specifications
The MAZ-9758 semi-trailer has 6 wheels. The spare seventh wheel is hidden underneath in the rear of the vehicle. As mentioned above, the semi-trailer is based on three axles. The distance between them is 1320 millimeters. Suspension – pneumatic. For individual orders, a spring-balance type suspension can be installed.
The fuel tank in the basic configuration holds 350 liters. At the customer's request, the fuel capacity can be increased to 500 liters. In any case, the tank is equipped with a fuel transfer system that operates in autonomous mode. An anti-lock braking system can also be installed as an additional safety system.
MAZ-9758 is made in the form of a van. The floor in it consists of wood. The awning is synthetic. It is attached to a welded frame. The front side is high. The side boards can be folded down if necessary. There are hinged double doors at the rear. They are closed using container-type locks. The trailer can be used to transport goods that require maintaining a certain temperature. In this case, it is designed as an isothermal van, isolated from the external environment by a layer of heat insulator.

Engine
The device for connecting a tractor and a semi-trailer MAZ 54323 with index 032 is a semi-automatic unit in which there are two degrees of freedom. They have a YaMZ-238B engine:
- Eight cylinders;
- Liquid cooled diesel;
- There is a turbocharger;
- Engine displacement is 14,799 cubic centimeters;
- Power 302 hp;
- Torque – 1178 Nm (120 kgf-m) at 1220-1400 rpm. in a minute;
- MAZ fuel consumption 156 g/hp. h.;
- Average pressure 894 kPa (9.1 kgf/cm2);
- The service life before overhaul is 10 thousand hours.
The cylinder block is cast, made of cast iron. The pistons are also cast from a durable alloy (aluminum and silicon).
Brake system
The brakes are equipped with a dual-circuit pneumatic drive. Moreover, the parking block is based on the brake of the stern wheels, which are pneumatically driven. It should be noted that there is an auxiliary brake, which operates a motor retarder with a pneumatic cylinder. Thus, a special mechanism has been installed to prevent condensate from freezing.
The brake block also contains a drum mechanism with a diameter of 420 mm. The width of the invoice is 160 mm. There is also a pneumatic drive system (2 circuits), as well as brake chambers in which batteries are mounted on springs.
The parking brake is located on the rear wheels and is powered by spring batteries. There is a spare brake, it doubles as a parking brake. Moreover, the auxiliary brake mechanism is a kind of motor retarder, which has pneumatic adjustment. Trailer brakes can be two-line or single-line.
Suspension
The front unit has semi-elliptical springs, which contain anti-roll bars and shock absorbers (they are available on all models). The rear springs are made sliding. They are located on two load-bearing and two additional springs. There is also an anti-roll bar. All MAZ vehicles are based on a frame chassis, the wheelbase is 3555 mm.
The front suspension is made up of leaf springs and shock absorbers. Later versions have a torsion stabilizer. The rear axle is based on leaf springs and additionally installed air springs. Some modifications are equipped with a locking differential. The power plant is located in front, it is closed by a folding cabin.
Load
- total weight per coupling block 8.82 tons;
- curb weight 7 tons;
- front axle 4.7 t;
- rear axle 2.3 tons;
- total weight 16 tons (6 tons on the front axle, 10 tons on the rear axle).
Semitrailer | 26.85 tons |
Curb weight | 34 tons |
Cruising speed (max) | 100 km/h |

A loaded car can accelerate up to 60 kilometers in one minute. Braking distance at a speed of 65 km/h is 37 meters.
Power supply
Power supply units have 24 volts. There are two rechargeable batteries, but you can add two additional ones. The mechanism contains a generator (G273V), in which a voltage regulator is installed. In general, the power supply circuit is simple, reliable and efficient; it can serve several nodes at once.
Transmission
The clutch has one and two dry discs. Gearboxes are only mechanical with a number of speeds from 5 to 16. On the rear axle there are bevel pairs, as well as additional planetary gears enclosed in the hubs. There is a cardan shaft between the bridge and the gearbox. There are also brake units that have a pneumatic drive. On some models you can find ABS.
The double-disc clutch was produced (like the engine) at the Yaroslavl Machine-Building Plant and had a pneumatic booster. The main disks were equipped with damper pads (their outer diameter was 42.2 cm).
This transmission had two speeds and a multiplier. Synchronizers were present only on the stern gears. The transmission was switched using a “telescope” drive, which was based in the gearbox itself.
Cabin
There is a large hatch in the cabin roof. The ceiling is high. A specially shaped fairing was often installed on the outside, which improved the aerodynamic characteristics of the vehicle. The cabin is for two people, there are berths (2 pieces). The seats are adjustable according to the following parameters:
- Length.
- Height.
- Angle of pillows.
- Backrest angle.
For northern latitudes, the “HL” modification was produced; the machine could operate at temperatures (-60°C).
Steering block
The design includes:
- Screw;
- Rack nut (ball type).
The last element was in interaction with a gear element, which is involved with the installed power steering distributor. The gear ratio had a coefficient of 23.55. The power steering is also equipped with a remote cylinder.
Modifications
There are several modifications of the MAZ-9758 semi-trailer:
- MAZ-9758-012 is a semi-trailer with an awning, equipped with air suspension.
- MAZ-9758-041 differs from the previous modification by the absence of an awning.
- MAZ-9758-030. This modification of the semi-trailer is equipped with an awning and spring suspension.
- MAZ-9758-043. This version has spring suspension. There is no awning.
You can purchase a used semi-trailer of this model for 130 thousand rubles. This is the minimum price. Models in better condition will cost more. The average price is 280-350 thousand rubles.
