About HESTAL
HESTAL (F. Hesterberg & Söhne) is one of Europe's leading manufacturers of locking, stanchion and body technology for commercial vehicle construction. As part of the BPW Group, the brand stands for the highest standard of engineering and uncompromising safety. In the light trailer sector, HESTAL components are used above all where maximum stability and durability are required under professional operating conditions.
Functionality and safety in detail
HESTAL products are characterised by well-thought-out ergonomics and extremely high mechanical load capacity. They set the standard for the secure locking of dropsides and bodies.
- Dropside locks (series 680/681): These classics are known worldwide for their enormous pull-in force and easy one-handed operation. They provide secure locking even under strong vibration.
- Stanchion systems: HESTAL stanchions allow flexible configuration of the load area and guarantee a stable connection between chassis and body.
- Surface protection: Thanks to high-quality galvanising processes or cathodic dip (KTL) coatings, HESTAL locks are optimally protected against corrosion and aggressive environmental influences.
- Integrated safety catch: Many models feature automatic safety mechanisms that effectively prevent the dropsides from opening unintentionally.
Spare parts for professional vehicle construction
Using original HESTAL parts guarantees an accurate fit and ensures that the structural properties of the body are retained. Owing to their wide use as original equipment, wear parts such as handles, bearing bolts or spring catches are usually available individually, enabling cost-effective repairs.
