8 Hole Drop Plate

Burquip 8 Hole Drop Plate

Overview

The Burquip 8 Hole Drop Plate is an extended heavy-duty towing accessory engineered to correct substantial tow-height discrepancies between towing vehicles and trailers or caravans. Offering greater vertical reach than smaller plates, its 8-hole layout provides multiple incremental mounting levels to ensure a perfectly level and stable towing setup—especially critical when hitching standard trailers to lifted 4x4s, commercial bakkies, or high-clearance utility vehicles.

Key Features & Benefits

• Extended Height Adjustment: The 275 mm overall length and 8-hole pattern deliver extensive vertical adjustment, allowing tow balls to be raised or dropped significantly to level out uneven rigs.
• Heavy-Duty Construction: CNC-cut from high-tensile 16 mm solid steel plate to resist severe bending moments, high tongue weights, and heavy pull forces during towing.
• Safer Towing Dynamics: Achieving a horizontal trailer profile balances the load across trailer axles, mitigates trailer sway (snaking), improves braking responsiveness, and minimizes uneven tyre wear.
• Standard Fitment: Designed with standard industry bolt-hole spacing compatible with standard flange-type tow balls, pintle hooks, and vehicle tow bar faceplates.
• Built for Rugged Environments: Engineered to endure the demands of heavy-duty transport, agriculture, overlanding, and corrugated gravel roads.
