Bruns BAR – trailers with a gross weight rating of 20,000 to 30,000 kg: five versions of the BAR range, 9,450 to 9,700 mm length, a constant 2,550 mm width

The BAR range gathers five versions in the register, whose designations such as BAR 18/8/LT/4-7 and BAR 30/12/LT/4-7 carry multi-part number and letter combinations; visible within them is the LT suffix and, at the end, a tyre-size designation such as 4-7 or 4.25-7.00. With gross weight ratings of 20,000 to 30,000 kg, the models fall into class O4, the heavy trailers above 10 tonnes, and need a towing vehicle rated accordingly.

The register lists here 5 versions with unladen weights from 3,880 to 5,450 kg and gross weight ratings from 20,000 to 30,000 kg. Lengths range from 9,450 to 9,700 mm, the width is a constant 2,550 mm.

Trailers of this weight class are used in agricultural and commercial transport behind suitably rated tractor units, for example carrying bulk material, bales or farm produce, where the uniform 2,550 mm width allows ordinary road use without a special permit. The narrow length span of just 250 mm between versions shows the models differ mainly in gross weight and axle load.

On a used example, check the frame and chassis rails for corrosion and cracks, the condition of the axle units and suspension, the brake system with its linkage and pads, and the tyres named in the type designation for tread depth and age. The hitch and parking support and the lighting also belong on the checklist, as does the condition of the side boards on bulk-goods versions; wear parts come from the open trailer-parts trade.

What to check before buying

  • Search the frame and welds at the axle mounts — that is where cracks start.
  • Check the brakes and the last inspection in the papers.
  • Work the gross weight against the towing vehicle before buying.
  • Compare the chassis number with the papers.
  • Look at the floor, cover or body from the inside — rust does not show from outside.
