Lens carries on this collective page trailers the register could not assign to a named range, from light models such as L O S 5 to LAT 2000 and LADS B, whose number 2000 echoes the 2-tonne weight class; LAK 8 and LASK 5 stand alongside for further individual builds on the collective page.

The register lists here 8 versions with unladen weights from 190 to 8,130 kg, gross weights from 2,000 to 12,000 kg, lengths from 7,150 to 10,700 mm and widths from 1,800 to 2,500 mm.

The span runs from light class O2 trailers to versions at the boundary of class O4, covering a wide field from trade and agricultural trailers to larger transport trailers, typical of the side programmes of smaller makers. The light models tend to go to private owners and trade businesses, the heaviest versions to goods transport in agriculture and commerce.

On used examples, depending on size, frame and load floor, overrun brake and ball coupling matter on the light models, and on the larger versions axles, brakes and frame welds, plus rust on load-bearing parts; spare parts for standard components are widely available through the general trailer-accessory trade. On the heavier models it is also worth checking the tyres' load rating, which must match the permitted axle load, and the condition of the springs shows whether the trailer regularly ran at full load.

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.
