Taskers 30 SK 20: a heavy EU class O4 trailer from 1975 with a 24,300 kg gross weight, a 2.50 m width and an unusually high payload share
The 30 SK 20 from Taskers is a trailer built in 1975. With a gross weight of 24,300 kg it falls into EU trailer class O4, the heavy trailers above 10 tonnes towed behind suitably rated tractor units in heavy haulage. At 2.50 metres wide, the trailer sits at the upper limit of the regular vehicle width.

An unladen weight of 3,510 kg leaves a payload of 20,790 kg against the 24,300 kg gross weight, an exceptionally high share of more than four-fifths of the gross weight. Such a light chassis carrying so much payload is typical of a build aimed at volume rather than dead weight, for instance for low-density bulk goods.
Trailers of this build were mainly used for bulk goods such as gravel, grain or similar light mass cargo, where large load volume at the lowest possible unladen weight decides how economical a run is. Because the gross weight exceeds 10 tonnes, such trailers are normally fitted with air brakes and need a towing vehicle rated for a correspondingly high trailer weight.
On a trailer this old and lightly built for heavy loads, check the side boards and the floor for rust-through first, since light bodywork wears fastest in bulk-goods work. Also check the air brake system for leaks and take a close look at cracks and older repair welds on the load-bearing frame after up to five decades of possible use.

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.
