This DAF TT13050H is a tow tractor — sometimes called a terminal tractor or yard tractor — a specialised short-haul vehicle designed to move trailers, heavy loads, and rolling stock within ports, freight terminals, and industrial yards. DAF is a well-established Dutch commercial vehicle manufacturer with a long history of producing heavy trucks and specialist vehicles for logistics and transport industries worldwide.
This 1980 example is a 4×2 unit, meaning it has two axles with drive to the rear pair of wheels. Power is transmitted through an Allison automatic gearbox, a robust and widely trusted brand of automatic transmission commonly specified in demanding industrial and terminal applications. The rear axle features hub reduction, a configuration that increases torque at the wheels — well suited to the constant low-speed pushing and pulling work that tow tractors carry out.
Braking is by drum brakes, and the exhaust is routed vertically, a practical arrangement in confined terminal environments. Tyres are sized 11R22.5 on a twin rear (dual) configuration, though the seller notes that tyre profile across both the front and rear axles stands at approximately 20%, which prospective buyers should factor into their assessment of running costs. The cab is a day cab configuration.
The machine is finished in white and measures approximately 5.05 metres in length, 2.5 metres in width, and 3.0 metres in height overall. It carries a Euro 0 emissions classification, consistent with its 1980 build date. The seller reports the general, technical, and visual condition as good, with no recorded damage.
This used tow tractor is located in Belgium and is offered at €2,850.
