Draco trailers over 10 t (Class O4) – B.V. D.R.A.C.O. Fabriek van Wegtransport from the Netherlands: 217 versions with D.A./D.T. type codes, unladen weights 2,720 to 28,900 kg, gross weights up to 56 t
Class O4 groups together, according to registration data from the Netherlands and Finland, all trailers with a permissible gross weight over 10 tonnes. The manufacturer itself is named in the register, in one of its model entries, as "B.V. D.R.A.C.O. Fabriek van Wegtransport" – a Dutch factory for road-transport equipment whose name is written as the abbreviation D.R.A.C.O. The type codes visibly follow a system of letter codes for axle count and body (D.A., D.T., D.T.3, D.T.E.A.) plus two to four dimensions, for example D.T.3A.1200-2400; the register alone does not let the exact meaning of the individual combinations be pinned down with certainty.

The register lists 217 versions with unladen weights from 2,720 to 28,900 kg and permissible gross weights from 11,000 to 56,000 kg. Lengths are recorded for 126 of the 217 vehicles and range from 1,500 to 14,050 mm, width for all 217 versions from 2,340 to 2,800 mm.
With its explicit self-description as a road-transport factory, Draco fits into the Dutch tradition of smaller, specialised trailer builders who, alongside the large European industry names, serve niches in the heavy-haulage segment, from short dollies to long low-loader combinations.
For a used trailer of this type, check frame corrosion on chassis rails and cross members, the condition of axles and the EBS braking system, the function of the air suspension, and play and wear of the kingpin. For the shorter versions used as lead axles or dollies, add the drawbar eye and coupling; a complete inspection history matters, since parts for older Draco assemblies are usually only available through the Dutch commercial-vehicle 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.
