Volvo FH16 Prime Mover

The Volvo FH16 is the most powerful prime mover in Rigsafe's transport fleet, delivering up to 780 horsepower and 3,800 Newton-metres of torque from its 17.3-litre D17 engine to handle the heaviest and most demanding haulage tasks across Western Australia.

Designed as Volvo's flagship heavy hauler, the FH16 is engineered for maximum sustained performance on long-distance interstate freight, heavy crane component transport, oversize and project freight movements, and the demanding conditions of WA's regional and remote road network.

The FH16's superior torque output and Volvo's advanced driveline management system maintain consistent performance under maximum load across the challenging grades, remote highway conditions, and extended distances that characterise Western Australia's heavy haulage environment. Its spacious, driver-focused cab delivers the comfort and operational confidence required for the long hauls that define WA's resources and infrastructure project supply chains.

Paired with Rigsafe's trailer fleet — flat decks, drop decks, and specialised transport configurations — the Volvo FH16 prime mover provides an integrated, high-capacity transport solution for the movement of crane components, heavy plant, oversize equipment, and project materials. Available for hire with an experienced operator across Perth and Western Australia.
