Hotra – further models: the collection page for Dutch trailers from the HUSTY and BEAUTY series to turntable (schamelwagen) and cable-drum (haspelwagen) trailers, 250 to 2,720 kg unladen weight, up to 5.5 t gross weight
This collection page brings together the Hotra trailers the register could not assign to a named series. Alongside the numbered HUSTY, BEAUTY, SPACE TRACK and JUMPER series and the shorter K2, K3 and K4 types, the register also lists versions named for their body type: the schamelwagen, a turntable-steered trailer, the haspelwagen for transporting cable drums, and bare chassis without a body, listed as kaalchassis.

The register lists 82 versions with an unladen weight from 250 to 2,720 kg and a gross weight from 1.2 to 5.5 t. Lengths range from 4.27 to 9.7 m, widths from 1.46 to 2.55 m.
Within this range the page spans light building-site trailers as well as heavy twin-axle versions for transport and construction firms in the Netherlands. Schamelwagen and haspelwagen types are tailored to special loads such as cable drums, pipes or long building components.
When buying used schamelwagen versions, key checks include the condition of the turntable and steering linkage; on haspelwagen types, the drum mounting and locking. More generally, the frame and loading bed should be checked for corrosion, axles and brakes for play and wear, and lights and the plug for function. Spare parts for axles, brakes and bodies are available from firms specialising in commercial trailers in the Netherlands.

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.
