Official test sticker 100 km/h

Your trailer can be licensed to be driven at a speed
of 100 km/h in Germany, subject to conditions being
met.

This then allows you to drive on motorways and dual
carriageways (not single carriageways) with your trailer at
max. 100 km/h.

Conditions for 100 km/h licence:

–

The towing vehicle must be licensed for max. 3,500 kg
permissible gross weight (zGG).

–

The towing vehicle must be fitted with ABS (anti-lock
braking system).

–

The tyres of the trailer must be licensed for at least
120 km/h (Class L) and must be no more than 6 years
old - from production date (see rim of tyre).

–

You must attach a 100 km/h test label to the rear of the
trailer.

–

Braked trailers need hydraulic wheel shock absorbers
(vibration dampers).

–

Trailer needs an ASK safety coupling or the towing
vehicle need a stability system that reacts to driving
dynamics when towing a trailer.

–

The ratio

(X-factor)

of the permissible gross weight of

the trailer to the tare weight of the towing vehicle

Zugfzg.)

is specified:

0.3

for unbraked trailer (up to 750 kg)

(30 % of towing vehicle tare weight)

1.1

for braked trailer (from 750 kg up to 3,500 kg)

(110 % of towing vehicle tare weight)

1.2

with anti-snaking coupling (ASK coupling)

(120 % of towing vehicle tare weight)

Calculation formula:

zGG trailer = X x m (Zugfzg. leer)

Unbraked trailer (factor = 0.3)

Zugfzg. leer: m = 1,500 kg

0.3 x m = 1,500 kg = 450 kg (zGG Anh.)

Braked trailer (factor = 1.1)

Zugfzg. leer: m = 1,500 kg

1.1 x m = 1,500 kg = 1,650 kg (zG Anh.)

Braked trailer with ASK coupling (factor = 1.2)

Zugfzg. leer: m = 1,500 kg

1.2 x m = 1,500 kg = 1,800 kg (zG Anh.)

If the actual permissible gross weight (zGG) exceeds
The calculated value, then the trailer needs to be unloaded
to the permitted max. trailer load (entered in the registration
certificate Part 1).

The max. drawbar load (S) of the trailer on the coupling of
the towing vehicle should be approximately utilised - but
may not be exceeded!

Endorsement clause specifying the tare weight of towing vehicle

In Germany, the vehicle registration authority (Kfz.-ZB) that
the vehicle is registered at is responsible for making any
changes to the papers and for issuing the Speed 100 sign.

To issue the Speed 100 sign / for registration, the
registration authority requires the following:

–

Trailer manufactured ex factory for 100 km/h:

Note specifying Speed 100 in the COC paper
(Fig. 34 / Fig. 35 ) or confirmation from the
manufacturer.

–

Trailer retrofitted for 100 km/h:

Expert appraisal of retrofitted trailer with wheel shock
absorbers / anti-snaking coupling by TÜV or an officially
recognised test organisation with a letter of
confirmation.
