KNOTT K27-A ball hitch for a 2700kg trailer with a 50mm pipe drawbar, cast iron

The K27-A ball coupling from KNOTT is a solid and reliable solution for heavy trailers and flatbeds with a total weight of up to 2700 kg. Made of durable cast iron, it provides maximum durability and load resistance. Designed for mounting on a 50 mm diameter pipe drawbar, it guarantees a stable and safe connection to the towing vehicle. It is distinguished by a permissible vertical load of 150 kg, which allows the transport of heavy loads while maintaining optimal weight distribution. Thanks to its solid construction and high quality of workmanship, the K27-A coupling is the ideal choice for professionals and users requiring reliable equipment for transporting heavy trailers, ensuring safety and peace of mind even in the most demanding operating conditions.

A ball hitch is an element mounted on the trailer drawbar, which is used to safely connect the trailer to the towing vehicle. Thanks to its design, it allows for stable seating on the towbar ball, which ensures a safe connection and smooth movement of the trailer while driving. Using a ball hitch is important because it minimizes the risk of the trailer becoming detached during transport and ensures proper control over the trailer, especially when turning and maneuvering. Using a ball hitch increases the safety and comfort of transporting various loads.

Consumption monitoring

The ball coupling wear indicator is a practical tool that allows users to monitor the technical condition of the coupling and assess its suitability for further use. Located on the outside of the coupling, this indicator usually consists of simple markings or colors that indicate when the coupling is in good condition and when it needs to be replaced. Regularly checking the wear indicator helps prevent breakdowns and increases safety during transport. This makes it easier for users to decide whether to service or replace the coupling, which is especially important in the context of road safety and avoiding potential accidents related to damaged equipment.

Anti-corrosion protection

Ball couplings made of high-quality cast iron undergo a precise galvanizing process, which is a key element of their durability and reliability. This effective method of anti-corrosion protection consists in covering the cast iron surface of the coupling with a layer of zinc, thus creating a durable protective coating. The layer created in this way creates an effective barrier against the aggressive effects of atmospheric factors, such as moisture, road salt or temperature fluctuations. Galvanizing not only provides excellent protection against rust and corrosion, but also significantly increases the coupling's resistance to mechanical damage. This process is particularly important in the case of cast iron, which, although durable, is susceptible to corrosion. Thanks to galvanizing, cast iron ball couplings combine the high strength characteristic of cast iron with excellent resistance to external factors, ensuring long-term and reliable operation in various conditions.
