Concept<br />

The Kappa Trailer is a lightweight, high-speed, personal utility trailer<br />

that can safely and easily be towed with any vehicle on the road<br />

today.<br />

With the modern trend of consumers toward smaller, more fuelefficient<br />

vehicles, the need has been created for an alternative solution<br />

for transporting loads safely and economically without risking<br />

overloading these smaller vehicles. For example: a family can safely<br />

travel to their destination in their compact vehicle, at normal highway<br />

speeds, without compromising safety or comfort, by towing all their<br />

luggage behind their vehicle.<br />

Design<br />

The trailers feature a 16-gauge, cold-rolled steel, 2-box design consisting<br />

of a “Main box” compartment at the rear and a “Nose-cone”<br />

compartment directly ahead of the main box. The chassis is fabricated<br />

channel made from 11-gauge cold-rolled steel. The axle assembly<br />

is a torsion-axle with 5-lug hubs on a 4 ½” PCD. The recessed tail<br />

lights and flat rear end design facilitate vertical storage to minimize<br />

footprint and save space. Available accessories include but are not<br />

limited to: a spare wheel mounted under the nose-cone, a fold-away<br />

jockey wheel, a fabricated steel rear wing-spoiler, an all-purpose<br />

carrier that mounts on the main box lid, a cooler-box conversion with<br />

drain plug for the nose-cone, custom color schemes and models with<br />

a tailgate design are also planned for the future.<br />

Main Box<br />

The main box is a waterproof, rectangular-shape, the dimensions are<br />

6’–0” long x 3’–0” wide and 1’–6” deep, with a 4” deep lid that is<br />

hinged on the driver’s side and opens on the passenger (curb) side.<br />

Lifting the lid is controlled/assisted by gas struts located at the hinge<br />

side. 6 eyelets are located on the floor of the main box for securing<br />

loads and preventing loads from shifting around during transport. The<br />

top opening features a prominent lip that prevents water from entering<br />

the compartment area.<br />

Nose Cone<br />

The nose-cone has a rhomboid shape with a sloping top side that is<br />

angled down 5 degrees from the long (rear) side toward the short<br />

(front) parallel side. The long parallel side measures 3’–0” and the<br />

short side measures 2’–0” and they are 2’-0” apart. The nose-cone is<br />

deepest (1’–3¾” deep) at the 3’-0” side with a lid that is hinged at the<br />

3’-0” side and tilts upward to open. The top opening features a prominent<br />

lip that prevents water from entering the compartment area.<br />

Chassis<br />

The chassis is fabricated from 11-gauge cold-rolled steel that is<br />

formed into a channel measuring 2”(web) x 1 ½”(legs) and fully welded<br />

at all connections. The channel sections are turned in a “toe-in”<br />

configuration and a TS 2x2x11Ga square tube is welded to the front<br />

for towing. A spare wheel mounting bracket under the front of the<br />

Nose Cone. A jockey wheel is mounted at the front of the chassis.<br />

The chassis is finished in a Black powder coat paint.<br />

Miscellaneous<br />

White is the standard color for all trailers with available paint options<br />

in Black, Red, Yellow, Bright Silver and Graphite Silver. White steel<br />

wheels are standard with similar paint color options as above.<br />
