Esselmann – other models: the collective page of trailers outside the named ranges, B, BP, PM, VK and VKT type codes, unladen weights from 820 to 8,500 kg, gross weights from 1,000 to 12,000 kg, lengths up to 13,450 mm

This page gathers the Esselmann trailers the register could not assign to a named range. The type designations form several code families – B and BP with a two-digit number, PM, and VK-E and VKT with multi-character codes – pointing to a broad range from simple to fitted-out trailers. Some designations also carry the brand name Esselman with a single N, pointing to spelling variants in the registration.

The register lists here 16 versions with unladen weights from 820 to 8,500 kg, gross weights from 1,000 to 12,000 kg, lengths from 4,100 to 13,450 mm and widths from 1,800 to 2,550 mm.

The span from 1 to 12 tonnes gross weight runs from class O2 into class O3 and thus covers both smaller commercial trailers and larger tandem-axle trailers for transport and agriculture.

On used examples of this range, the condition of the frame and axles, the brake system and overrun brake and rust on the sides and undercarriage all count; on the longer and heavier versions it is also worth checking the torsional stiffness of the frame and the condition of the load-bed surfaces. Axles and brake components on trailers of this class usually come from specialist suppliers. Tyres and lighting are also worth checking, especially on the longer versions. A service history helps assess the real usage of the trailer.

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.
