Polkon – other models: the collective page of trailers outside the named ranges, from the NK192 and NT-173 to the STD061 and TS802, unladen weights from 4,500 to 11,670 kg, gross weights up to 43,000 kg

This page gathers the Polkon trailers the register could not assign to a named range: the versions NK192, NT-173, PK-183, STD061 and TS802. The type codes combine two to three letters with a number pointing to build size or weight class. With gross weights from just under 17 to 43 tonnes, the whole range sits in the heavy, multi-axle trailer and semi-trailer segment.

The register lists here 5 versions with unladen weights from 4,500 to 11,670 kg, gross weights from 16,800 to 43,000 kg, lengths from 8,920 to 12,880 mm and widths from 2,380 to 2,550 mm.

With payloads of roughly 12 to over 30 tonnes, these versions are built for heavy freight transport and construction-site haulage, where multi-axle trailers behind trucks or tractor units allow a high load on a robust chassis. On the used market, such trailers often change hands several times before, after years in long-haul service, entering a second working life with smaller hauliers or in construction.

On a used trailer, the condition of chassis and side rails, axles and brake system, tow eye or kingpin depending on the design, the condition of tyres and lighting, and a complete inspection and registration history count, plus the underrun guard and access steps; 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.
