Description
Overview:
This 12N 7-Pin Trailer Socket (MPN 763 126) is a heavy-duty towbar socket for standard UK 12N road-light circuits on trailers and caravans. It has a robust cast aluminium body for impact resistance and long service life in fleet and site environments, with nickel-plated pins to resist corrosion from water, salt and road debris. The socket provides the conventional 7-core connection for tail, stop, indicators and auxiliary 12V functions on 12V systems. It is suitable for fitment to towbar plates on cars, 4x4s, vans and light commercials, and for replacement use on trailer front boards and drawbars. The unit is designed for hard use in plant and construction towing, where durability and reliable contact are essential. The protective lid helps keep the contacts clean when uncoupled, and the standardised 7-pin layout ensures compatibility with common 12N plugs used across the UK and Europe. Supplied as a single socket ready for wiring into the vehicle or trailer loom by a competent installer.
