Draca Other models

The register lists here 26 versions with unladen weights from 260 to 13,830 kg, gross weights from 1,000 to 20,000 kg, lengths from 3,730 to 10,040 mm and widths from 1,460 to 2,600 mm.

The span therefore runs from small single-axle trailers to heavy tandem and tridem versions for transporting machinery, building materials or goods in commercial use; trailers of this size are found with private users as well as in building and farming businesses.

When buying used, the light versions call for checking the overrun brake, axles and load floor, the heavier models additionally the frame and welds for cracks, the condition of the brakes and tyres, and on tippers and platforms the hydraulics and bed covering; the papers should clearly state the gross weight and axle load. The coupling, lighting system and the wheel-arch rust condition are also worth checking at viewing. Wheel bearings are another point worth a quick check on both light and heavy versions.
