Ablas – other models: the collective page of trailers outside the named ranges, type codes A, D, K, P, T and V, unladen weights from 270 to 984 kg, gross weights from 1,200 to 2,000 kg

This page gathers the Ablas trailers the register could not assign to a named range. The type names take the form of short, mostly one- to three-character codes with the prefixes A, D, K, P, T and V – such as P 1, P 2, T 11, T 2 or V 3 S – and many variants carry the suffix AL or differ only in spacing, punctuation and hyphenation; one version is recorded as DERCKS ABLAS. This variety of notation reflects a model range of small and medium trailers built up over decades.

The register lists 42 versions with unladen weights from 270 to 984 kg, gross weights from 1,200 to 2,000 kg and widths from 1,600 to 2,330 mm; as length the register gives 4,250 mm.

Trailers of this weight class, between a light trailer and a light car trailer, serve everyday hauling of garden waste, building material, motorcycles or small machinery and are towed behind cars or light commercial vehicles; the span of gross weights covers both unbraked and braked versions.

When buying used, the frame for rust and distortion, axles and wheel bearings, the overrun brake system on braked versions, side panels and deck for wear, and the lighting, number plate holder and condition of the coupling head and jockey wheel are worth checking. Several of these codes also appear again with the AL suffix or in altered spelling, so the register lists closely related variants of the same short designations separately.

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.
