Pacton – other models: the collective page of trailers outside the named ranges, medium centre-axle trailers from TXD 107 to DXX 110, 7 to 10 tonnes gross weight

This page gathers the Pacton trailers the register could not assign to a named range – recorded under designations such as TXD 107, TXZ 107, DXX 110 and 8005-S. With gross weights of 7 to 10 tonnes, the versions fall into EU vehicle class O3, the class of trailers from 3.5 to 10 tonnes, the class of medium-weight centre-axle and tandem-axle trailers towed behind lorries and larger vans.

The register lists here 12 versions with unladen weights from 1,880 to 7,500 kg, gross weights from 7,000 to 10,000 kg, lengths from 6,430 to 12,700 mm and widths from 2,200 to 2,500 mm.

Trailers of this class serve in freight transport as extra load area behind the lorry, for instance for palletised and part-load goods, construction machinery or vehicle transport, and are mostly run by hauliers and building firms in commercial traffic. The used market for such trailers is large and hard to overview across Europe, as many smaller manufacturers built similar designs in changing series over decades.

On a used example, the condition and play of the centre axle or tandem axles, the function of the overrun brake and brake linkage, rust on the frame and drawbar, the condition of the floor and sideboards and the registration documents all count; spare parts run through the specialist trailer trade. Also worth checking are the coupling head, wheel chocks, tyre age and whether the chassis number matches the registration documents.

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.
