Tamco – other models: the collective page of trailers outside the named ranges, Saturn 600 FA and Saturn 6000, 2,760 to 2,910 kg unladen weight, 3,500 kg gross weight
This page gathers the Tamco trailers the register could not assign to a named range – with the two versions Saturn 600 FA and Saturn 6000, this amounts to the whole programme listed here. Both types carry the model name Saturn with an attached number, from which no firm system can be read. As with many smaller trailer brands, the programme is drawn from registration data, in which each model is listed individually with its technical values.

The register lists here 2 versions with unladen weights from 2,760 to 2,910 kg, a gross weight of 3,500 kg and widths from 2,500 to 2,510 mm.
With a gross weight of 3.5 tonnes and unladen weights of 2.76 to 2.91 tonnes, only a narrow payload reserve of a few hundred kilograms remains – a layout typical of trailers with a fixed, heavy body rather than for variable loads. For registration behind a car, besides the trailer's gross weight the tow vehicle's rated towing capacity is also decisive, since it sets the real limit for the load towed.
On a used example, axle and wheel-bearing condition, the function of the overrun brake, rust on frame and drawbar, the state of side walls or tarpaulin, lighting and plug, and tyres and rims all count. Parts for such small brands usually run through independent trailer workshops. On versions with an overrun brake, the adjustment of the brake linkage and the condition of the brake linings are also worth checking before the first drive.
