Andres – other models: the collective page of trailers outside the named ranges, SA 5 and SA 5/90, 1,780 to 2,620 kg unladen weight, 2,880 to 5,000 kg gross weight
This page gathers the Andres trailers outside the named ranges. All three entries revolve around the same base name SA 5, once as SA5 without a separator, once with the 5/90 suffix as SA - 5/90. All three versions are carried in the register as separate registration entries with their technical values.

The register lists here 3 versions with unladen weights from 1,780 to 2,620 kg, gross weights from 2,880 to 5,000 kg and widths from 2,200 to 2,320 mm; lengths from 6,000 to 7,530 mm are also recorded for two versions.
At gross weights of 2.9 to 5 tonnes, the range spans from the upper car-trailer class to the lower end of small truck trailers, towed behind vans or light trucks in commercial use. Lengths of up to 7.5 metres at comparatively narrow widths of 2.2 to 2.3 metres point to platform or low-loader bodies rather than wide box trailers.
On a used example, axle and brake system condition, the function of the overrun brake or hydraulic brake, rust on frame and drawbar, and tyre and rim condition all count. Parts for such small makers typically come through independent trailer workshops rather than a manufacturer network. On the longer platform versions, checking the load bed for warping and rust also belongs on the pre-drive list. A look at the coupling head and safety chain rounds off the inspection before the first journey.

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.
