Burquip Eye Coupler Delta 2,700kg

Deliver controlled overrun braking deceleration and heavy-duty articulation for medium-to-heavy commercial plant trailers, industrial equipment haulers, and agricultural transport rigs with the Burquip Eye Coupler Delta 2,700kg. Built around the proven KNOTT mechanical overrun braking system for A-frame (Delta) chassis architectures, this heavy-duty assembly replaces a conventional ball head with a 40 mm DIN towing eye to couple directly with commercial pintle hooks, NATO-style jaws, and towing pin hitches, providing proportional braking deceleration for trailers with a Gross Vehicle Mass (GVM) ranging from 1,600 kg up to 2,700 kg.

Key Features & Benefits:

• 40 mm DIN Heavy-Duty Towing Eye: Fitted with a solid forged 40 mm DIN standard towing ring engineered for secure commercial towing connections with pintle hooks, NATO jaws, and pin-and-ball hitches.

• 1,600 kg to 2,700 kg Overrun Braking Capacity: Calibrated to actuate mechanical trailer brakes smoothly and proportionally across single- or tandem-axle trailers up to 2,700 kg GVM, preventing trailer shove and stabilizing stopping distances.

• Delta (A-Frame) Chassis Geometry: Features an engineered Delta housing profile designed to bolt across converging A-frame drawbar beams, ensuring rigid structural distribution of pulling and dynamic braking loads into the trailer chassis rails.

• High-Articulation Site Performance: The ring-and-pin interface provides wide angular clearance and rotational freedom around the towing pin, eliminating coupler binding and tongue fatigue over severe job-site undulations, gravel tracks, and off-camber work sites.

• Internal Overrun Hydraulic Damper: Houses a calibrated internal hydraulic shock absorber that softens push-pull transitions during stopping and accelerating, eliminating harsh jerking and brake snatch.

• Spring-Assisted Over-Centre Handbrake: Features an over-centre parking brake lever with a ratchet mechanism to mechanically lock trailer brakes when parked on steep inclines or stored unhitched.

• 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.

• Durable Heavy-Duty Construction: High-tensile steel housing and precision-machined sliding components treated with a protective anti-corrosion coating to resist gravel chipping, mud, and outdoor atmospheric exposure.
