Burquip Ball Coupler Delta Short Lever 2,000kg 

Deliver controlled overrun braking performance and enhanced clearance on compact A-frame drawbars with the Burquip Ball Coupler Delta Short Lever 2,000kg. Engineered around the proven KNOTT mechanical overrun braking architecture, this assembly features a modified low-profile/short handbrake lever specifically configured to prevent physical interference with front-mounted trailer toolboxes, spare wheel carriers, or tight caravan front walls, while providing proportional braking deceleration for trailers with a Gross Vehicle Mass (GVM) up to 2,000 kg.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Compact Short Handbrake Lever: Specifically designed with a reduced-arc handbrake lever to eliminate clearance issues and contact with drawbar accessories, front-mounted storage trunks, gas bottle holders, or spare wheels.

• 2,000 kg Overrun Braking Capacity: Calibrated to actuate mechanical drum or disc brakes smoothly and proportionally for single- or tandem-axle trailers up to 2,000 kg GVM, preventing trailer shove and reducing stopping distance stress on the towing vehicle.

• Delta (A-Frame) Chassis Geometry: Features an engineered Delta housing profile designed to mount directly over converging A-frame drawbar beams, ensuring structural distribution of towing pull and dynamic braking loads across the chassis rails.

• Standard 50 mm Ball Coupling Head: Equipped with a precision-cast 50 mm ball hitch head compatible with standard tow balls, complete with an ergonomic safety latch handle to prevent accidental decoupling.

• Internal Overrun Hydraulic Damper: Houses a calibrated internal hydraulic shock absorber that softens stop-start transitions, preventing harsh jerking and brake snatch during sudden deceleration.

• Emergency Breakaway Protection: Pre-fitted with attachment points for an emergency breakaway cable, ensuring immediate, fail-safe brake engagement if the trailer separates from the towing vehicle.

• High-Speed Category Classification: Certified under Burquip’s braked high-speed coupling category, designed to withstand continuous highway speeds and heavy-duty commercial service.
