DAF FAK – chassis code for the CF and XF ranges: 12.9-litre six-cylinder engine rated at 375 kW, gross vehicle weight 35,500 kg
FAK is a chassis code within DAF's register logic, under which both vehicles of the CF range – including the CF85 version with its 8.9 or 12.9-litre engine – and vehicles of the XF range with the XF105 generation are listed. Both ranges form the backbone of DAF's heavy-segment line-up and differ mainly in cab height: the CF range is designed for distribution work with a lower cab, the XF range for long-haul transport with a taller, more comfortable cab. DAF itself is a Dutch truck manufacturer based in Eindhoven, part of the American PACCAR group since 1996.

The register lists 5 versions here with a power output of 375 kW, a uniform displacement of 12,902 cm³, six cylinders, kerb weights from 10,057 to 24,420 kg, a gross vehicle weight of 35,500 kg, lengths from 8,580 to 12,000 mm and a width of 2,550 mm.
At around 510 PS, these versions rank among the more powerful variants in European long-haul transport, where high engine output secures payload and cruising speed at full articulated-combination weight.
On used examples, operating hours and the service history of the engine, the condition of the turbocharger and exhaust after-treatment, and wear on the clutch and gearbox from high long-haul mileage all matter; spare parts are available through DAF's Europe-wide service network.
