Draco is a Dutch manufacturer of low-loader trailers. Under the type designation DA the register lists a range of trailers whose models run from DA 500 to DA 2800 and cover a broad span of weight classes. With gross weights from 5,000 to 28,000 kg, the range spans from EU vehicle class O3 (up to 10 tonnes) into class O4 (over 10 tonnes).

The register lists here 7 versions with unladen weights from 3,240 to 7,640 kg, gross weights from 5,000 to 28,000 kg, lengths from 9,780 to 10,530 mm and widths from 2,000 to 2,550 mm.

With gross weights from 5,000 to 28,000 kg the DA range spans from lighter trailers for commercial transport to low-loaders for construction machinery, making it a versatile addition to the Draco line-up. The lighter versions can still be towed by common tractor units without a special permit, while the heaviest models, like other low-loaders, may require special permits.

Buying used, given this range, the condition of the frame and axles, the function of the brake system and hitch coupling, rust on the chassis and side panels, and on the heavier versions the tightness of the ramp hydraulics all count; parts for axles and brakes are available through the general commercial-vehicle parts trade. In addition, checking the frame's weld seams for cracks and the condition of the locks and safety chains on the load surfaces counts.

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.
