RINEL Other models

The register lists here 7 versions with unladen weights from 680 to 1,885 kg, gross vehicle weights from 1,100 to 2,000 kg and widths from 2,030 to 2,490 mm.

Trailers of this weight class mostly run behind vans and light commercial vehicles, for example in construction and landscaping, or for carrying machinery and material beyond the payload of an ordinary car trailer. They round out the range of smaller trailer builders who sell regionally and deal directly with commercial customers.

When buying used, check the chassis and drawbar for rust, distortion and patched welds, the axle and wheel bearings for play and running noise, the overrun brake for function and lining wear, and the load floor and side panels for corrosion through. Spare parts for axles, couplings and brakes on Rinel trailers, as with most smaller builders, come from the general trailer-accessories trade rather than a brand-specific parts network. It is also worth checking the tyres and rims for age, tread depth and load rating, the spare wheel or repair kit and on-board tools, and that the chassis number, type plate and vehicle documents all match.
