Ablinger – other models: the collective page of trailers outside the named ranges, Ablinger and AS1000, 450 to 1,200 kg unladen weight, 1,300 to 3,500 kg gross weight
This page gathers the two Ablinger trailers outside the named ranges: the type listed simply as Ablinger and the AS1000. With such a small model programme, the collective page amounts to practically the whole catalogue of the brand. The two types differ widely in weight and are carried in the register as separate registration entries.

The register lists here 2 versions with unladen weights from 450 to 1,200 kg, gross weights from 1,300 to 3,500 kg and widths from 2,020 to 2,550 mm, and a length of 11,500 mm for one of the two versions.
The gross-weight range of 1.3 to 3.5 tonnes covers both light, unbraked to medium car trailers and the upper trailer class fitted with an overrun brake, towed behind vans or stronger cars. The recorded length of 11.5 metres at a comparatively low gross weight points to a narrow special body such as a boat trailer or a carrier for long, light goods rather than a classic box trailer.
On a used example, axle and wheel-bearing condition, the function of the overrun brake or towing eye, rust on frame and drawbar, and tyre and rim condition all count. Parts for such small makers typically come through independent trailer workshops rather than a manufacturer network. On the longer version, the condition of support rollers or bearing surfaces and the alignment of the chassis also belong on the pre-drive checklist.
