SKR9/SK10

In 1933 the merger of Aveling and Porter with Barford and Perkins, the UK’s leading manufacturer of

steam powered road rollers, gave birth to a driving force in precision engineering – Aveling-Barford.

Diversifying to meet the needs of the growing market for motor powered construction equipment,

Aveling-Barford introduced the UK to its first Barford site dumper in 1936. Now owned and run by the

Wordsworth family group of companies, Barford continue to pride themselves on a long heritage of

creating innovative, robustly engineered, reliable dumpers. In keeping with this ethos, Barford have

introduced the market to the largest most powerful site dumpers in the UK – the Barford SK Series.

Historically, Barford pioneered the 9 tonne forward tipping dumper to meet increasing pressure for

site efficiency. Following this tradition, the SK Series have been designed to take things even further

by introducing the first 10 tonne forward tipping (SK10), and the first 9 tonne rotary tipping (SKR9),

site dumpers. Design, specification and manufacturing all meet strict European standards to ensure

the operator’s safety, and a full manufacturer’s warranty and added support of national and

international dealer networks provide the peace of mind of knowing that the SK Series have the

power, efficiency and support to get the job done faster!

the POWER to ACHIEVE

B A R F O R D H I G H C A P A C I T Y D U M P E R S

9As advocates of new ideas Barford believe in giving you a real alternative to the ’norm‘. Now you can

break free from the pack with SKR9 – the largest rotary tipping dumper on the market. With a load

capacity of 9 tonnes and a swivelling skip, SKR9 provides the competitive edge you need.

Unrivalled power, courtesy of a 94kw turbo charged inter-cooled engine, and high floatation tyres as

standard mean that SKR9 makes easy work of terrain where the average 9 tonne forward tipping

dumper will bog down.

Safe working practice was of paramount importance in the design of the SK Series. Every dumper is

fitted with an over centre valve to ensure measured power is delivered to the tipping rams for better

off-loading in difficult conditions. A wide rear chassis creates a lower centre of gravity for increased

stability, whilst still maintaining a ‘footprint’ suitable for loading on to standard transportation.

Superior skip geometry, manufactured using 8 mm thick steel plate and precision bending further

increases machine stability and ensures that the SKR9 passes all ‘tilt table tests’ when loaded.

SKR9 facts at a glance

10Boost your earth moving efficiency with Barford’s SK10, the ‘true’ 10 tonne site dumper. Powered by a

potent 94kw turbo charged, inter-cooled engine, fitted to all the Barford SK Series site dumpers,

the SK10 sets new standards in productivity, surpassing smaller site dumpers in its stride. Heavy duty

axles and a rigid chassis work in harmony with high floatation tyres to ensure SK10 doesn’t squander

its superior power when the going gets tough.

In common with SKR9, SK10 features superior skip geometry and a wide rear chassis with a low

centre of gravity for increased stability. Despite its massive capacity SK10 also maintains a ‘footprint’

appropriate for loading on to standard transportation and passes all ‘tilt table tests’ when loaded.

A Joystick allows precise skip control, and rams governed by a hydraulic system, fitted as standard

with an ‘over centre valve’, provide even and safe tipping of the wettest loads. Practicality is further

enhanced by sturdy rear mud guards which form a full working platform either side of SK10’s stable

chassis. Combine all of these features and you have the most efficient site dumper available when it

comes to sheer ‘earth moving’ ability.
