TD-FA0160 – EU class O3 trailer with a 10,000 kg gross weight at the upper limit of the class, 4,700 kg kerb weight and 5,300 kg payload

With a gross weight of 10,000 kg, the TD-FA0160 sits right at the upper limit of EU trailer class O3, the bracket between 3,500 and 10,000 kg. Trailers at this limit are usually already fitted with air brakes, as required from the heavier class O4 upward, marking the transition to heavy trailers.

At a kerb weight of 4,700 kg, the payload comes to 5,300 kg, just over half of the gross weight. The body length of 11,550 mm and width of 2,600 mm describe a long build at a comparatively moderate gross weight, pointing to voluminous rather than especially dense cargo, such as lighter general goods or components needing more space.

Driving a combination at this weight limit requires at least a category CE licence. The combination of a long body and moderate gross weight allows a lower axle load per metre of vehicle length than on shorter, heavier trailers, which is easier on tyres and running gear as long as the load is spread evenly along the length.

When buying used, given this body length, checking the frame for sagging along its full length deserves attention, especially if the load was often spread unevenly over the area. The brake system should be checked for correct operation regardless of its exact type, and the lighting installation along the vehicle's full length deserves a thorough visual check because of vibration loading.
