Böckmann AT
Built: 1987–2008 · Series: Trailers up to 3.5 t (Class O2)
More machines from model year 1987
The Böckmann AT is a car trailer from Böckmann (EU vehicle class O2), built from 1987 to 2008. It is 5,810 mm long and 2,412 mm wide, weighs 555 kg unladen and has a permitted gross weight of 2,450 kg.
Subtracting the unladen weight from the permitted gross weight leaves the Böckmann AT with a payload of 1,895 kg. More than half of the gross weight is therefore available for cargo.
Under EU licensing rules, a category B licence allows a combination of towing vehicle and this trailer up to 3,500 kg permitted total mass – with a gross weight of 2,450 kg that leaves only 1,050 kg for the towing vehicle, which practically no car meets. Code 96 on a B licence raises the limit to 4,250 kg (towing vehicle up to 1,800 kg); beyond that a BE licence is required. Being over 750 kg, the trailer must be braked, and the towing vehicle needs a braked towing capacity of at least 2,450 kg.
Among the 586 car trailers from Böckmann with a stated length, the Böckmann AT at 5,810 mm is among the longest (rank 34); the range runs from 3,170 to 7,960 mm. The Finnish vehicle register lists 4 units.
Böckmann car trailers up to 3.5 t (class O2) – from plain load trailers to the Big Master and Big Champion horse ranges: 588 versions, kerb weight 235 to 1,500 kg, gross weight up to 3,000 kg
Böckmann Fahrzeugwerke, based in Lastrup in the Cloppenburg district, trace back to a village smithy founded by Anton Böckmann in 1956; cattle-trailer production began in 1958, and from 1960 the first horse trailers were built from them. Over 70 years the firm has, by its own account, built more than a million trailers and is today among the largest German makers of car and horse trailers. This class O2 collective page gathers Böckmann trailers with a gross weight of 0.75 to 3.5 tonnes, from plain load trailers in the AB and ABL ranges through tandem-axle types such as ALT and ATA to the classic horse-trailer ranges Big Master and Big Champion; the digit string before the slash, such as 2513, by manufacturer logic denotes the platform dimensions in decimetres (2.50 by 1.30 m), and the number after it the weight class.

The register lists 588 versions with kerb weights from 235 to 1,500 kg, gross weights from 1,000 to 3,000 kg and widths from 1,460 to 2,550 mm; lengths are recorded for 577 models and range from 3,170 to 7,960 mm.
With a gross-weight ceiling of 3 tonnes, this range covers the lighter segment of Böckmann trailers, from plain car trailers to the Big Master and Big Champion horse transporters designed for comfortable animal transport; in the market Böckmann competes chiefly with Humbaur and Westfalia.
When buying used, check the condition and smooth action of the coupling head, whether the overrun brake and its linkage work, the axles and rubber-torsion suspension, frame corrosion at the drawbar and axle mounts, the lighting system, the floor, tarpaulin or partitions, and tyre age; Böckmann maintains a dense German dealer and parts network.
