Description
Overview:
The Tailboard Retaining Bracket for 20 mm bar (MPN 800 1229) is a compact pressed steel keeper used to secure a round latch bar on tailboards and rear doors. Manufactured from pressed steel with a self colour (plain) finish, it is intended for integration into commercial vehicle and trailer bodywork where a robust, no‐nonsense retaining point is required. The bracket is sized to suit a Ø20 mm (0.79 in) round bar and provides a positive location to hold the bar in place when the tailboard is closed. Typical fitments include truck and tipper bodies, plant and general-purpose trailers, agricultural equipment such as balers, and waste handling skips. Overall dimensions are approximately 52 mm (2.05 in) in length, 32 mm (1.26 in) in width and 50 mm (1.97 in) in height, making it suitable for use where space is limited while maintaining reliable alignment and retention of the latch bar.
