Cuppers KO – Dutch trailers with a gross weight rating of 21,000 to 45,000 kg: five versions, 10,470 to 11,990 mm length, 2,540 to 2,600 mm width
The KO range from Cuppers of the Netherlands gathers five versions from the KO 11-10 I through the KO 12-30 SL to the KO 15-30 SL; the I, SL and ASL suffixes mark design variants within the range. With gross weight ratings of 21 to 45 tonnes, the range spans from the lower to the upper half of class O4.

The register lists here 5 versions with unladen weights from 5,890 to 10,660 kg and gross weight ratings from 21,000 to 45,000 kg. Lengths range from 10,470 to 11,990 mm, widths from 2,540 to 2,600 mm.
At gross weights up to 45 tonnes, the heaviest version of the KO range already counts among the large heavy-haulage trailers, while the lighter variants around 21 tonnes serve ordinary building-material and machinery transport behind medium to heavy tractor units. The comparatively narrow length span from 10.47 to 11.99 m against a more than doubled gross weight shows how much axle count and axle load differ within the range.
On a used example, check the frame and chassis rails for cracks and deformation, the axle units and suspension, the brake system with its connections, and the drawbar eye and parking support. On the heaviest version, also check the torsional stiffness of the frame, and on all versions the condition of the support legs and wheel chocks; parts for axles and brake components come from the Dutch commercial-vehicle 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.
