Dump trailer

[dusty]

We,ll be selling this joskin in a month or so. Picture was taken a few years ago no just as fresh now but still a good trailer

We use an old 8 tonne ex silage trailer for most stuff,yes it’s too small,yes it’s old,but the one thing which is great is the lightness.

Some of these dump trailers are too heavy for field work.

I will be looking at unladen weight versus strength.

Old set of silage sides works well here, holds more than the 14 ton trailer sat next to it and it's handy for tipping in low sheds because its a shorter trailer.

16 ton broughan? Also does it hold a true 16ton of say drainage chips?

I think that Broughan would hold a lot more, we've an NC flat dumper and drew a load of quarry rubble a couple of weeks ago, trailer is 5m by 2.4m and about 0.75m high sides. Weighbridge tared load was just over 16t. We used the same trailer with extensions for grain and struggle to get 8t of barley in. Trailer is about 4.8t I think from memory. 445/65r22.5 tyres.

Yeah will hold 16 ton comfortably, most I've had over a weighbridge was 18.4 ton. Tend to stick around the 15 ton mark though, doesn't peak much over the sides at 15.

What does it weigh empty out of interest?

Im not actually sure, there's no weight on the plate, I'd guess 5 ish ton.... Its certainly built to last anyway.

Do they stamp a gross weight on the plate?

They do, but I can't remember what it is, I'll check tomorrow.

Sounds a good size, just standard spec for a 16 tonner?

As far as I know, It was one of the first square bodied dumpers they did so things might have changed since but its,
16 foot long, 3 foot high sides, 10mm floor and 6 mm sides

Last page you can also specify heavier floors if I remember as it is the only bit of them that ever shows wear, if I was buying mine again I would get a Hardox floor, would do you a lifetime.

Have one here with commercial axles & 10mm floor, good strong trailer, only thing is they don't hold very much for the size on the side.

There is a reason for this which was discussed above.

 

[Hilly]

I have had a nc 14 tonner on hire all summer , great trailer ! If not so reasonable to hire I’d buy one straight away .

 

[Lakesdigger]

Been discussed before as well but don't assume 10 stud wheels are on commercial axles. A lot out there are just 10 stud drums over ag spec brakes. Big difference not just in operation but also maintenance.

Yea, but a nc 14 tonner only holds about 12 ton.. and less of gravel. A 14 ton trailer should hold 14 ton of gravel without spilling it. You have to weld greedy boards on which is hassle..

Yep, would agree with that. Just buy and price accordingly.
