Pacton THD – range from the Dutch trailer maker of Nieuw-Vennep: eight versions, 6,740 to 12,440 kg unladen weight, 19 to 40 tonnes gross weight
The THD range brings together semi-trailers from the Dutch manufacturer Pacton of Nieuw-Vennep. The model list shows three number groups – 119 to 122, 230 to 233 and 339/340 – in which the first digit consistently rises with the size class, while the following digits mark individual build variants within each group. Pacton builds its trailers in series at its home plant and supplies chiefly the Dutch and western European haulage market, where flatbed and platform semi-trailers of this kind serve general freight, machinery and construction-material transport.

The register lists 8 versions with unladen weights from 6,740 to 12,440 kg at gross weights from 19,000 to 40,000 kg. Lengths range from 10,320 to 13,740 mm, widths from 2,500 to 2,600 mm.
With a span of 19 to 40 tonnes gross weight, the THD range covers a wide field from the lighter to the fully loaded semi-trailer, as is common in European road haulage for different types of cargo.
When buying a used trailer of this range, the frame and kingpin mount should be checked for cracks and wear, along with the condition of axles, brakes and suspension, and the tightness of the tarpaulin or body. Tyres, lighting and underrun protection belong to the standard check, as does the function of the side boards and lashing rings; spare parts for axles and brakes are available through the general commercial-vehicle parts 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.
