AL-KO Kober Ball Coupler Mono 70mm 1,600kg

Deliver controlled overrun braking deceleration and rigid structural towing support for light-to-medium commercial trailers, caravans, and equipment haulers with the AL-KO Kober Ball Coupler Mono 70mm 1,600kg, distributed by Burquip. Precision-engineered by AL-KO Kober (Model 161S series) for straight central drawbars (Mono / single-pole chassis layouts), this mechanical overrun device mounts directly onto 70 mm square drawbar tubes, providing proportional braking deceleration for trailers with a gross vehicle mass ranging from 950 kg up to 1,600 kg.

Key Features & Benefits:

• 950 kg to 1,600 kg Braked Capacity: Calibrated to actuate overrun braking systems smoothly and proportionally across single- or tandem-axle trailers without surging or shoving the towing vehicle.

• Mono 70 mm Square Chassis Mount: Engineered to sleeve directly over 70 mm square hollow section (SHS) central drawbars, ensuring rigid mechanical alignment for straight-pole drawbar architectures.

• Integrated Hydraulic Overrun Damper: Features an internal, high-efficiency hydraulic shock absorber that softens stop-start transitions, preventing harsh jerking and brake snatch during sudden deceleration.

• Standard 50 mm Ball Coupling Head: Equipped with a precision-engineered ball hitch head compatible with standard 50 mm tow balls, featuring an ergonomic latching handle with a secondary safety lock to prevent accidental uncoupling.

• Spring-Assisted Over-Centre Handbrake: Features a heavy-duty mechanical parking brake lever that provides positive holding force to secure trailer brakes when parked on slopes or unhitched in storage.

• Integrated Breakaway Cable System: Fitted with a dedicated breakaway cable attachment point that automatically triggers the trailer brakes if accidental separation occurs during transit.

• Corrosion-Resistant Heavy-Gauge Construction: Fabricated from high-tensile cast and pressed steel treated with protective zinc galvanising to withstand continuous road spray, mud immersion, and stone chipping.
