Tat PW 10: an EU class O2 trailer from 2009 with a 3,500 kg gross weight, an 11.38 m length, a 7,120 mm wheelbase and a 2.25 m width
The PW 10 from Tat is a trailer built in 2009. With a gross weight of 3,500 kg it falls into EU trailer class O2, the trailers between 750 and 3,500 kg that usually run on overrun brakes behind cars and light vans. At 11.38 metres long with a 7,120 mm wheelbase, the PW 10 is unusually long for this weight class.

An unladen weight of 2,000 kg leaves a payload of 1,500 kg against the 3,500 kg gross weight. The 7,120 mm wheelbase across four wheels explains the great length: the axles sit far apart so the long, slender body does not sag. At 2.25 metres wide, the PW 10 stays within the usual road width for trailers in this class.
Long, light O2 trailers of this kind typically carry pipes, masts, boat hulls or building materials, where the length of the load bed matters more than a high payload. In most EU countries an O2 trailer can be towed on a category B licence, as long as the combination stays under the gross weight limit that applies there.
On a trailer this long, check the frame along its full length first: sagging in the middle, rust at the welds and the alignment of the drawbar reveal whether the trailer has stayed straight. Also check the lights working over the 11.38 m length and the condition of the overrun brake and axle bearings. Even tyre wear across all four wheels is worth checking as well.
