Orthaus is a German vehicle manufacturer from Ahaus in the Münsterland region that builds semi-trailers and trailers for special tasks – from tippers to low-loaders and container and swap-body systems with an integrated chassis. This page gathers the Orthaus models outside the named ranges, from tipper semi-trailers such as the OGT 24 and OTA 50 through low-loader and stepdeck versions to special bodies for individual customer projects.

The register lists 18 versions here with unladen weights from 4,640 to 14,020 kg and gross weights from 18,000 to 50,000 kg; lengths run from 10,310 to 13,950 mm, widths from 2,470 to 2,750 mm.

The range from light two-axle tippers to heavy multi-axle low-loaders shows the business's focus on special and small-series production for construction, recycling and heavy-haulage firms in the German market and neighbouring countries, where customer-specific bodies are in more demand than large-series models.

On used Orthaus semi-trailers it is worth checking the frame and tipping cylinders for cracks and leaks, the brakes and axle suspension, and on low-loaders also the ramps, locking mechanisms and the hydraulics of the load-floor adjustment; since many units are one-off or small-series builds, matching the chassis number against the registration document before purchase is advisable.

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.
