Burquip Heavy-Duty Trailer Hinge 180 × 85mm

The Burquip Heavy-Duty Trailer Hinge (180 × 85mm) is a robust, weld-on body hardware component designed for trailer tailgates, dropside panels, equipment access hatches, and medium-to-heavy ramp gates. Fabricated from thick-gauge solid structural steel, this broad-profile hinge provides excellent lateral stability, high shear strength, and smooth pivot articulation for commercial, agricultural, and general-purpose trailer applications.

Description

Engineered to endure the repetitive mechanical stress and vibration of daily commercial hauling, the Burquip 180 × 85mm hinge provides trailer builders and fleet maintainers with a compact yet wide-bodied pivot solution. Its 85mm width offers a broader lateral footprint than narrower hinge styles, distributing torsional forces and preventing gate sway, binding, or sagging over time.

Supplied in bare, unpainted structural steel with an integrated solid steel pivot pin, it is ready for direct weld-on attachment or custom hole-drilling to suit specific bolt-on layouts. Its clean, raw finish allows full weld penetration prior to final chassis priming, galvanizing, or powder coating.

• Broad 85mm Profile: The increased width delivers enhanced lateral support across dropside gates and tailgate frames, minimizing racking and twisting under load.
• Heavy-Gauge Structural Steel: Built from high-yield solid steel plate engineered to withstand rough-road vibration, heavy cargo impacts, and frequent operation.
• Solid Steel Pivot Pin: Precision-fitted pivot pin ensures smooth rotation without slop, play, or premature pin wear.
• Fabricator-Ready Finish: Provided in bare steel without pre-drilled holes, allowing fabricators full versatility for direct welding or bespoke fastener positioning.
