Desot – other models: the collective page of Dutch semi-trailers (opleggers) outside the named ranges, OP and OZ ranges, 2.78 to 17.4 t unladen weight, 16 to 39 t gross weight, lengths up to 13.9 m

This page gathers the Desot trailers the register could not assign to a named range – Dutch semi-trailers (oplegger), recognisable by the type codes OP, OPC, OPG, OPL, OPP and OZL with appended axle and brake codes such as 2A, 3AT or BSR. The digits after the codes usually give the axle count and the permitted axle load or gross weight in tonnes, while the suffixes SSR, MSR and E denote brake and equipment variants of the semi-trailer programme.

The register lists here 46 versions with unladen weights from 2,780 to 17,400 kg, gross weights from 16,000 to 39,000 kg, lengths up to 13,900 mm and widths from 2,450 to 2,600 mm.

Semi-trailers of this weight class are widespread in Dutch and cross-border haulage, where Desot, alongside larger semi-trailer makers such as Pacton or Schmitz Cargobull, offers a range of standard and special semi-trailers. The wide spread of axle loads and gross weights covers both general-cargo and heavy haulage.

On a used example, the condition of the frame and kingpin plate, axles, brakes and air suspension, the condition of the load bed and body depending on the version, the condition of brake-line and lighting connections, and a complete service history count; spare parts run through the Desot service network and the Dutch specialist semi-trailer trade.

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.
