36 or 45 tonnes Safe Working Load, tare weight from 10,5 tonnes.
The Hammar 500 is the peak of Sideloader performance, offering unmatched versatility and capability. As the top-of-the-line model in the Hammar range, it is built for those who demand the highest capacity and the most advanced features available. With a lifting capacity of 36 or 45 tonnes (SWL) and a remarkable reach of 6 meters, the Hammar 500 stands out where other models fall short.
The model's support legs feature three different operational modes, each excelling at different tasks. It has the ability to handle more complex situations and is particularly useful in yard or terminal operations. It is the ideal choice for those who need a Sideloader model that can do it all. Whether it’s heavy lifting or more advanced container placements, the Hammar 500 delivers excellent performance across the board.
StepOver Mode
The StepOver Mode is the main lifting mode of the Hammar 500. It has maximum stability, the highest Safe Working Load at range and is exceptional for transfer operations.
Dock Mode
The Dock Mode take smaller space and can be placed on different elevations. It also enables the Hammar 500 to lift lighter loads outside the support legs range, allowing more versatile positioning of the load.
Sledge Mode
The Sledge Mode has the fastest deployment and requires less space. Excellent for quickly handling containers in ground-to-ground operations.
Ultimate Stacking
The Hammar 500 can stack up to two high cube containers two rows deep. Its extendable cranes ensure easy and precise positioning, allowing you to stack two containers high weighing up to 30 tonnes and two containers high, two rows deep weighing up to 17,1 tonnes.
Transfer from/to another chassis
The Hammar 500 offers exceptional transfer capabilities, making it easy to move containers from/to another chassis or rail wagon. Its support leg extends over and next to the companion chassis without making contact, creating a “tunnel” for fast and easy loading or unloading. This saves time by allowing trailers to drive in or out under the tunnel to the lifting zone without moving the support legs.
High safety
The Hammar 500 always comes equipped with a high quality, PLC based monitoring system that provides maximum safety. The mass and position of the load is continuously monitored, ensuring smooth and safe operations.
When buying a Hammar Sideloader you always get a high quality Hammar designed chassis, optimized and made for Sideloader operations. We have a number of models to fulfil our customers’ requirements, which are then adapted to suit local regulations and the customer’s needs.
Fixed Chassis, Sliding Cranes - 500 HS
The S-chassis is a fixed length, and has sliding cranes meaning it can handle multiple container sizes. It has a straight forward design and the lowest tare weight of all Hammar chassis. It is the most common model used world-wide. Also available with fixed cranes for single size containers upon request.
Telescopic chassis, Combination - 500 HC
The most common telescopic chassis is the C-chassis (Combination). It combines sliding cranes with a telescopic chassis, and has a low tare weight. The sliding cranes enable optimized weight distribution of your load. A telescopic chassis is a requirement in some countries for transporting 45' or longer containers on the road.

Axle configurations
We offer different axle configurations to your Hammar chassis; different numbers of axles, optimized weight distribution and more. All conforming to local regulations and your needs.
Road train options
A Hammar chassis can be built with a 5th wheel/turntable or a drawbar coupling for towing another semi-trailer or trailer behind. This allows you to have a road train that you can load and unload with the Sideloader.
Load & container size adaptions
Hammar can adapt your Sideloader to carry various sized containers or other loads. We can build the chassis to fit containers from 5' to 60' and have wide range of other solutions for other loads or containers requiring additional equipment.
Low bed chassis
A Hammar trailer chassis can be built as a low bed chassis, giving a significantly lower overall height when loaded. Excellent for extra high loads or other situations that restrict the height of the vehicle.
Choose what, when and how you can lift with your Hammar Sideloader.
2x20' capacity
A centre container beam with 4 twist locks is mounted. With the 2 twin-locks (joiners) included you can connect and lift 2 lightly loaded 20' containers simultaneously. Heavier can be transported.
Dangerous goods
The Hammar is equipped and adapted for handling of dangerous goods according to local regulations.
Raise & Lower function
Allows the operator to adjust the height of the trailer when loading/unloading. Extremely useful when operating on uneven ground, or when transferring from/to a higher or lower companion chassis.
Weighing equipment
The Hammar can be equipped with two different weighing systems; a load indicator system with an accuracy of ± 400 kg and/or a SOLAS certified scale with an accuracy down to ±50 with optional printer.
Composite foot plates
Two foot plates of recycled composite material. Placed under the support legs or trailer landing legs, they drastically reduce the ground pressure. Comes with storage brackets on the Hammarlift.
Top spreader
Available in two versions for two purposes: 1) Handling containers in the top corner castings & faster handling. 2) Handling swap body containers or other similar cargo. N/A on all models.
Adjustable container stops
Adjustable container stops allow for transport of over-wide containers, e.g. tank or pallet wide containers.
Make operations and maintenance smoother and more efficient
Automatic container twist locks
Automatic crane twist locks for more efficient operations and less room for human error. Connected to automatically open/close when the crane power is engaged/disengaged.
Central Lubrication System
Automated centralized lubrication system supplying all greasing points on the crane and trailer. Reduces maintenance time and costs, and increases the product life time.
Hammar Optical positioning equipment
“HOPE” - Optical sensors reading the position of a container next to the Sideloader when lining up, alerting with a green light when cranes are in correct position for lifting. Increases efficiency.
Toolbox
Alloy toolbox mounted on the non-lifting side of the Hammar Sideloader.
Lifting axle
Lifting one axle when driving with less load. Saves greatly on tyre wear. Lowers automatically when maximum legal load is reached on the other axles.
Increase safety for operations, the Sideloader and staff.
Radio remote control
Cordless radio remote for all Hammar functions. The operator can control the lifting from any position outside the hazard zone, increasing usability, efficiency and safety. Choose a 1 or 2 hand unit.
Reverse camera/sensor
A camera or reverse sensor is installed in the rear of the Hammarlift. Increases efficiency, usability, safety and prevents damages.
Extra lights
Equip the Hammar Sideloader with extra LED lights for safer and more efficient operations with limited daylight. E.g. illumination of twist locks, extra reverse lights, or extra warning lights etc.
Reduce your tare weight, increase your payload and reduce wear and fuel consumption.
