Vewe H 2: heavy EU class O4 trailer with an 18,000 kg gross weight, 7,180 kg unladen weight and 2,590 mm width for building-material and machinery transport

With a gross vehicle weight of 18,000 kg, this trailer from Vewe falls into EU trailer class O4, the category of heavy trailers and semi-trailers above 10 tonnes fitted as standard with an air brake system. Registration requires a number plate and a recurring technical inspection of the chassis, axles and braking system.

It has an unladen weight of 7,180 kg, giving a payload of around 10,820 kg. Its width of 2,590 mm sits at the upper end of what occurs on bodies such as tippers or low-loaders with frame sections that project slightly to the side. That leaves a comparatively compact vehicle in this weight class with a high share of the gross weight available for the actual load.

Trailers in this weight class carry building materials, bulk goods or machinery, making use of a high gross weight allowance on a comparatively compact deck. The towing vehicle requires driving licence category CE, and the air brake system acts on every axle. Spare parts for brake drums or discs, suspension components and lighting are available through the general parts trade for this vehicle class, independent of the original manufacturer.

When buying used, the checklist should include the chassis and axle mounts, along with the tightness of the tipping mechanism or side panels where fitted. Brake pads, drums or discs, the air-line hoses and tyre condition should be checked along with play in the axle bearings. The air-line connector heads, the load-sensing brake valve and the suspension on every axle also belong on the pre-purchase checklist.
