Saxas – other models: the collective page of trailers outside the named ranges, AKD, AKW and SKD/SPS types, unladen weight 1.6 to 7.47 t, gross weight up to 24.5 t

This page gathers the Saxas trailers the register could not assign to a named range. The type codes AKD, AKW, SKD and SPS distinguish the ranges within the collective page, while the following number strings such as 41-3.5-DZ or 73-5-M order the build size and axle count of each model. The SKD and SPS ranges appear both with and without a hyphen, for example SKD 73-5-M and SKD-73-5-M.

The register lists 16 versions here with unladen weights from 1,600 to 7,470 kg, gross weights from 3,500 to 24,500 kg, lengths from 6,130 to 13,900 mm and widths from 2,230 to 2,550 mm.

With gross weights up to 24.5 t, the Saxas trailers range from car trailers to multi-axle tandem or tridem trailers used in commercial freight and machinery transport. Trailers of this size are used in commercial freight transport, on construction sites and for hauling machinery and vehicles.

When buying used across this span, what matters most is the condition of the frame and axle assemblies, the function of the braking system and, where fitted, the overrun brake assembly, corrosion on the load bed and sideboards, and the condition of the drawbar eye or ring. Spare parts for trailers of these sizes are stocked by the established trailer dealers. On the larger versions, the frame joints and the function of any steering axle fitted should also be checked.

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.
