The Dijkstra DRPA-3500 is a machine built by Dijkstra. Production: 1990-1990. The machine is 2,380 mm wide. The unladen weight is 2,030 kg. The wheelbase measures 3,460 mm. Top speed is 100 km/h. The gross vehicle weight is 3,500 kg. Unladen weight across the Dijkstra range ranges from 380 to 16,800 kg; the DRPA-3500 sits at the bottom of that range with 2,030 kg. Its immediate neighbours are the DE 12 below it with 1,240 kg and the TW27 above it with 2,360 kg. 92 Dijkstra models across 5 series are on record. The model is listed under Trailers. 7 verified figures from 1 source are on file.

This page gathers 50 Dijkstra trailers that the register could not assign to a named series. Dijkstra is a Dutch trailer manufacturer; the type list consists mainly of codes such as DRVO, DRO and ORVA combined with two number pairs, for example DRVO 12-30 or DRVOC 18-28/17-27 AT, marking different axle and tipping configurations of the same base type.

The register lists 50 versions here with a kerb weight of 380 to 13,890 kg and a gross weight of 1,200 to 45,000 kg. Widths range from 1,560 to 2,550 mm, lengths from 8,750 to 12,150 mm.

The wide weight spread shows that the page covers everything from light trailers to heavy multi-axle tipping semi-trailers, as used in earthworks, agricultural haulage and the transport of bulk materials. Tipping trailers of this size are common above all among contractors and in road and civil-engineering work.

When buying a used tipping trailer, check the hydraulic cylinders for leak-tightness, the tipping body for wear and corrosion, and the hinges and locks of the sides. Axles, the braking system and the frame should be checked for rust and play; wear and hydraulic parts for common tipping trailers are available from agricultural and construction-equipment dealers. The tipping mechanism's pivot points and safety props are worth checking too, since these see repeated stress during daily tipping cycles.

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.
