Key Features & Benefits
- Override (surge) brake mechanism — when the tow vehicle brakes, the trailer pushes forward on the coupling which activates the hydraulic master cylinder, applying the trailer brakes proportionally to deceleration force.
- Solid shaft construction — heavy-duty solid shaft transfers the surge force reliably to the brake master cylinder for consistent, predictable braking.
- 2 tonne rated — rated to 2,000kg gross trailer mass (GTM), suitable for medium duty trailers including boat trailers and car carriers with hydraulic disc brakes.
- Dacromet finish — superior corrosion resistance compared to standard zinc plating, especially important for boat trailer couplings exposed to salt water.
- 4 hole mounting — four-bolt pattern provides a stronger, more secure mounting to the drawbar than 2 or 3 hole patterns.
When to Use This Coupling
The R1809A is required on any trailer with a hydraulic surge brake system. The override mechanism is what activates the trailer brakes when the tow vehicle slows down. If your trailer does not have surge brakes (i.e. it uses electric brakes, mechanical brakes, or no brakes), use the simpler R1803A standard coupling instead.
