Description
Overview:
This breakaway cable is a safety link for trailers fitted with an AL-KO 120SR coupling, commonly found on Generac tower lights such as the VB9 and TL90. It is a genuine Al-Ko component, made from durable, PVC-coated steel wire rope with robust crimped ends and steel hardware for a secure connection. The cable provides a fail-safe link between the towing vehicle and the trailer; if separation occurs, it helps prevent uncontrolled movement and can engage the brake lever where fitted. Built for frequent site use, the bright, high-visibility finish aids quick checks during coupling. It is suitable for construction, hire, and maintenance teams who need a reliable, straightforward replacement to keep lighting equipment safe in transit and during on-site moves.
Key Features:
- Genuine Al-Ko quality for dependable performance with the 120SR coupling
- PVC-coated steel wire rope for strength and abrasion resistance
- Corrosion-resistant metal fittings for long service life in all weather
- High-visibility red finish to aid daily safety inspections
- Pre-formed loop and snap hook for quick, secure attachment points
- Firmly crimped ferrules to maintain integrity under load
- Designed to provide a positive safety link between tow vehicle and trailer
- Compatible with Generac VB9 and TL90 tower light trailers
- Simple to fit and remove during routine coupling and uncoupling
- Suited to regular site moves and road towing when used correctly
Typical Applications:
Used as the secondary safety connection when towing Generac tower lights between sites, around depots, and on worksites. Ideal for replacing damaged or frayed cables during scheduled maintenance or pre-use checks. Helps ensure controlled stopping or retention of the trailer if the primary coupling fails, supporting safe transport of lighting equipment and hire fleet compliance practices.
