This page gathers the trailers of the Sam brand that the register could not assign to a named range. Several model names are Polish: "PRZYCZEPA" simply means trailer, "LAWETA" denotes a car-transport or breakdown-recovery trailer; alongside them stand type codes such as N 13, PD0-2,0SL, PKE 008LP, RD 2600, SAM12.2, WL0001 and WX0640. By gross weight the types fall between EU vehicle class O2 and O3.

The register lists here 17 versions with unladen weights from 300 to 3,440 kg and gross weights from 1,000 to 8,990 kg. Length runs from 3,940 to 12,450 mm, width from 1,620 to 2,500 mm.

The mix of short trailers around 4 m and long versions of over 12 m, at a moderate gross weight of up to just under 9 tonnes, shows a broad field of use from car transport through construction-site trailers to livestock trailers.

Up to a gross weight of 3.5 tonnes in class O2, a mechanical overrun brake with a ball coupling suffices; above that limit, class O3 requires an air brake system and at least driving licence category C1E. On car-transport trailers such as the LAWETA, the permitted nose weight on the coupling and the load capacity of the ramps for the heaviest vehicle to be loaded also need attention.

On a used purchase, the condition of the chassis and load bed, drawbar and braking system, on car-transport trailers additionally the winch and ramps, and tyre condition all count; spare parts run through the open trailer-parts 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.
