Single-sided tipper - for controlled unloading in one direction

Single-sided tippers tip the load backwards. They are particularly stable and are suitable for transporting heavy materials such as gravel, soil or grain. Their advantage lies in their simple design, which makes them less maintenance-intensive.

Double-sided tippers - more flexibility when unloading

Double-sided tippers can tip the load backwards or to the side. This makes it easier to unload in confined spaces, for example in warehouses or on narrow paths. The additional side tipping function makes them more versatile than single-sided tippers without sacrificing stability.

Three-sided tippers - maximum flexibility

They can tilt to the rear as well as to the left and right, which is particularly advantageous on uneven or difficult-to-access terrain. This allows the vehicle to be unloaded quickly without having to be moved. 3-sided tippers are ideal for companies that transport different goods and require maximum adaptability.

What to look out for when buying a used tipper?

A used tipper is often a cheap alternative to a new tipper, but the condition should be checked carefully before buying. Make sure that the frame has no cracks or rust spots and that the hydraulics work reliably. The drop sides must close tightly and the locks must function properly. Also check the axles and tires for damage and sufficient tread. It is important for road traffic that the brake system and lighting are fully functional. Make an appointment with a dealer in your area for a free demonstration to see the functionality and condition of the tipper for yourself.

Frequently asked questions about tippers

What does a used tipper cost?

Prices depend on age, condition and size. Simple single-sided tippers are available from around €2,000, while larger three-sided tippers with a high payload can cost many thousands of euros.

How can I tell if a used tipper is in good condition?

Look for rust, cracks and deformations on the frame. Test the hydraulics to ensure that the tipper tilts smoothly and without delay. Also check the tires and brake system.

What tractor power is required for a tipper?

This depends on the size of the tipper. Small tippers (up to 5 tons payload) usually require tractors from 50 hp, large tippers with 15-20 tons payload at least 100 hp.

How often does a tipper need to be serviced?

Regular maintenance extends the service life: hydraulics, brakes and tires should be checked regularly. It is also advisable to lubricate moving parts and apply an anti-rust coating.

Can a used tipper be retrofitted?

Yes, many older tippers can be retrofitted with new hydraulic cylinders, side ramps or additional brakes to adapt them to today's requirements.

How long does an agricultural tipper last?

The service life of a tipper depends on use and maintenance, but can be 20 years or more. Regular maintenance, rust protection and functioning hydraulics are crucial. High-quality models from well-known manufacturers often last a particularly long time.

Are there special tippers for transporting grain?

Yes, many tippers are equipped with high sides or attachments to transport large quantities of grain safely. Some models have a roller tarpaulin or a sealed loading area to prevent transportation losses. Easy emptying is important, e.g. via a tailgate with a metering slide.

Which manufacturers offer reliable tippers?

The best-known manufacturers include Fliegl, Brantner, Kröger and Pronar, who are known for their robust and durable tippers. Fliegl and Brantner stand for high quality and practical solutions, while Kröger offers versatile models for different applications. Pronar offers solid tippers at an attractive price-performance ratio.
