45mm Square Spring U-Bolt Kits | Hot-Dip Galvanised

The Couplemate™ 45mm u-bolt kit for square axles includes Galvanised u-bolts, nylock nuts, and fish plates.

Spring U-Bolt Kits are designed to safely secure leaf springs to trailer and caravan axles. U-bolts are link between your trailer and the road, hence the importance of using u-bolts made from high-quality materials. 

If you have a trailer ATM over 1450kg, Couplemate recommends opting for the heavy-duty u-bolt kit instead.

45mm Square Spring U-Bolt Installation

Couplemate™️ U-Bolt Kits are easy for trailer spring maintenance.

  • Place U-shaped curve over axle beam.
  • Align the centre spring bolt and U-bolt legs with the fish plate holes.
  • Secure fish plate to leaf spring through supplied washers and nylock nuts. Tighten nuts to 60Nm with a socket.

Important: Check U-bolts and re-tighten nuts after the first trip and every 250 km thereafter.

Safety Precautions

  • Do not re-use nyloc nuts. Nyloc nuts are often less effective after the first use. This is because the nylon material (the key component of a nyloc nut) has already once conformed to the thread profile. 
  • Do not use a rattle gun to tighten. Rattle guns often tighten u-bolts too fast, too tight, and uneven. This can cause nylon overheat and risks undue wear. 
  • Ensure the axle has welded axle pads. If not, use the axle pads supplied with the spring U-bolt kit.
