We design and manufacture high-performance, high-quality tipping trailers for grain, silage and root crops, dumper trailers, and flat-bed trailers.
Robust and durable, our trailers are designed and engineered for maximum efficiency, capacity and wear life, enabling you to deliver full payloads with a low unladen weight.
How we engineer the strength in our trailers
We press our side sheets externally to increase volume in the trailer, enabling you to carry maximum payloads. A deep section top rail keeps the trailer in a true and straight shape when tipping and carrying heavy loads.
Our floors are constructed using full length integrated floor bearers and a front to rear support structure to give you a low unladen weight, while preserving the strength of the trailer and reducing resistance on the floor during the tipping cycle.
4mm thick floor panels are centre-welded to provide strength and make efficient use of materials.
“U” channel floor bearers, running front to back, provide internal reinforcement of floor support beams to handle the tipping force and preserve the shape and integrity of your trailer.
The single cylinder five-stage tipping ram reduces tipping times which helps you unload faster. The tipping point is mounted in the front half of the trailer to reduce unnecessary strain to the trailer body and chassis, and 60mm tip pivot pins give you a more rigid, stable structure when tipping.
Our commercial mono leaf spring suspension system is designed specifically for agriculture giving you greater stability on hillsides and uneven terrain by reducing the spring travel to 20mm.
Double C section with extra pressing increases the load bearing strength of the chassis beams. Extra beam bends create more strength.
Our trailers are designed to provide 50% braking at 60kph giving you shorter stopping distances and comply with current road regulations. Our prominent LED light units and reflective markers ensure that you are easily seen.
We use only the highest quality components for our trailer to ensure that tipping hoses, hydraulic pipe fittings and LED light units provide you with reliable and trouble-free use.
Our unique monocoque construction is designed for ease of maintenance, efficiency and durability the uncluttered trailer body design prevents build up of dirt and debris.
The combination of intelligent design and robust build gives you a machine that operates effortlessly. Richard Western trailers are easy to pull and can be relied on to tow smoothly, making your job efficient and enjoyable.
