Product Details
The 50 Ton Air Compensated Pintle Hook from Buyers Products is designed to cushion movement between the pintle hook and tow ring, minimizing wear and tear on the components during sudden motions or braking situations. Utilizing the vehicle's air system, the hook maintains the drawbar eye's proximity to reduce wear, absorb shock, and prevent uncoupling during operation. The pintle hook is suitable for heavy-duty applications, including trailers, semitrailers, and double and triple trailer operations, functioning effectively in both off-road and over-the-road conditions. It can also be utilized as a standard pintle hook without the air chamber and plunger. For off-road applications, it is recommended to reduce the load by 25% and use a swivel-type trailer drawbar. Key features include a significant reduction in wear and tear on towing parts through minimized slack and movement, enhanced ride comfort via shock absorption between the vehicle and trailer, and construction from extremely strong austempered ductile iron with a durable corrosion-resistant powder-coated finish. The product is also compliant with relevant certifications, ensuring its reliability and performance.
