Compatibility and Fitment

Match the tow hood to the 127mm ball, flange pattern, drawbar design and trailer approval requirements before fitting. Carrying capacity can change between hinged and rigid drawbar applications, so confirm the final installation against the trailer design and compliance paperwork.

Compliance and Safety

Inspect the flange face, mounting holes and surrounding drawbar structure before installation. Use the correct mounting hardware and torque process for the trailer design, then confirm the coupling locks cleanly onto the 127mm ball without binding or excess movement.

Trailer Applications

Trailer builders and repair workshops use this 127mm trailer tow hood on pig trailer rigid drawbar setups where a flange mounted hood replaces or interchanges with a pintle towing eye pattern. It suits heavy trailer coupling work where the ball size, rating and mounting pattern all need to line up.
