S Cartwright & Sons Kippsilo – EU class O4 trailer with a 39,000 kg gross weight and a tipping-silo body built for bulk goods
With a gross weight of 39,000 kg the Kippsilo falls into EU trailer class O4, the heavy trailers above 10 tonnes. The model name points to a tipping-silo body, used to carry bulk goods such as grain, feed or granulate, discharged through a tiltable or pneumatically emptied silo chamber.

The body is 13.61 m long and 2.6 m wide, running on six wheels with a 8.77 m wheelbase. Unladen weight is 7,500 kg, leaving a payload of 31,500 kg. This high payload against a comparatively low unladen weight is typical of silo and bulk-goods bodies, whose structure is light but built to withstand high internal pressure.
Class O4 requires an air-brake system with its own supply line from the towing vehicle. A tipping silo discharges its load either by gravity when one end is raised, or through a built-in conveyor or pneumatic system whose seals and function are critical. Tractor unit and trailer must be joined by a coupling rated for the high axle load.
Buyers should check the silo chamber for corrosion, cracks and seal integrity, and the discharge mechanism – flaps, screw conveyor or pneumatic system – for proper function. The chassis, axles and brake system should be checked as on any heavy trailer, for wear and for line seal integrity. A current roadworthiness certificate and the condition of the tipping mechanism round off the check.

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.
