Description

Overview

The heavy duty side swing tailgate hinge uses a 40mm pin with 75mm arm clearance for side-swing tailgate movement on compatible tipper and trailer bodies. Both dimensions matter because the hinge must place the pivot correctly while giving the swinging arm enough clearance around the tailgate structure.

Features

• 40mm hinge pin for the main tailgate pivot.
• 75mm arm clearance at the bent pivot section.
• Heavy-duty configuration for side-swing tailgate operation.

Specifications and Materials

Pin diameter: 40mm. Arm clearance: 75mm.

Part number: CV2051.

See the WorkSafe Victoria tailgate safety guidance

Compatibility and Fitment

Match the 40mm pin diameter, 75mm arm clearance, pivot orientation and existing hinge support before fitting. A hinge with the same pin diameter but a different arm clearance can place the tailgate pivot incorrectly or reduce clearance through the swing.

Compliance and Safety

Support the tailgate securely before removing or servicing hinge components. Inspect the pin and supporting hinge points for wear, cracking, distortion or looseness, then confirm the tailgate swings freely without binding or contacting the body.

Trailer Applications

This assembly suits compatible heavy-duty side-swing tailgate arrangements on tippers and trailers where the gate pivots laterally rather than only dropping from a lower hinge line.

Why Choose ICS Trailers

A 40mm pin alone does not identify this hinge correctly because the 75mm arm clearance also controls where the side-swing pivot sits. If the existing hinge is worn, bent or partly missing, send ICS Trailers photos of the tailgate hinge area plus the pin and clearance measurements. We can help compare the pivot layout before the replacement is fitted and the tailgate is returned to service.
