Barents BL – trailer range: the type number gives the gross weight, from 3,500 to 8,600 kg, unladen weights up to 7,060 kg, widths up to 2,560 mm
Barents builds commercial trailers, and the BL range gathers in the register a group of multi-axle trailers named after their permissible gross weight: the number in the type designation – 3500, 4500, 5000, 5400, 6000, 7500 or 8600 – corresponds directly to the gross weight in kilograms, supplemented by abbreviations for axle count and equipment such as 2DS, 3DS, 3DSZ, ADS or OPL. The range thus spans from lighter twin-axle trailers to heavy triple-axle trailers, used on building sites, in municipal work and in agriculture for bulk goods, building materials and equipment.

The register lists 29 versions of the BL range with unladen weights from 730 to 7,060 kg, gross weights from 3,500 to 8,600 kg and widths from 1,480 to 2,560 mm; the longer versions measure 8,640 to 11,380 mm.
With this span Barents covers the field between light building-site trailers and heavy triple-axle tippers and competes with the big European trailer builders in the construction and agricultural segment, where payload per axle and manoeuvrability decide the choice.
On a used example, the condition of axles, suspension and brakes counts – on the triple-axle versions with overrun brakes especially the brake linkage – rust on the chassis and side members, the tow eye and ball coupling, lighting and wiring, and on tipper versions the hydraulic rams and side-panel seals. Spares are sourced through the trade for commercial trailers, as Barents does not run as dense a service network as the big range builders.

What to check before buying
- Search the frame and welds at the axle mounts — that is where cracks start.
- Check the brakes and the last inspection in the papers.
- Work the gross weight against the towing vehicle before buying.
- Compare the chassis number with the papers.
- Look at the floor, cover or body from the inside — rust does not show from outside.
