2t Trailer Coupling – AL-KO

Description

2t AL-KO trailer two-hole zinc Snap or more precisely the Spring Release Coupling is AL-KO latest release coupling.

AL-KO Snap couplings are spring-loaded to enable the coupling to snap and lock upon closing the coupling.

2000kg AL-KO snap couplings have a feature where an R Clip can secure the handle and help prevent accidental unlocking.

• Also listed here is an imported four-hole x 2t coupling.
• Use Snap couplings on trailers and marine trailers without brakes.
• Hole Spacings 101.6mm x 13.5mm
• Weld on 2t Trailer Coupling Trigg

We recommend using 1/2″ Grade 8 high tensile bolts to secure the 2000kg AL-KO coupling to the trailer frame.

‘Couplings’ designed for use between tow vehicles and trailers with an ‘ATM’ up to 3.5 tonnes must be ‘Quick Release Couplings’.
