Description
Overview:
This Genuine Indespension damper is a direct replacement component for the V671 trailer coupling, also compatible with the V971. It is a sealed, metal-bodied unit designed to absorb shocks and control movement between the towing vehicle and trailer. By smoothing out acceleration, braking and surface impacts, it helps maintain a steady, predictable connection that protects the coupling and improves towing comfort. Built with a robust construction and a corrosion-resistant finish, it is suitable for regular use in demanding environments. The damper is engineered to match the original specification for the V671/V971 coupling heads, supporting reliable operation and consistent performance across a wide range of trailer duties, from site work to general transport.
Key Features:
- Genuine Indespension part for assured fit and performance on specified couplings
- Designed for the V671 and V971 coupling systems
- Sealed damping mechanism to control shock, snatch and vibration
- Robust metal construction with a corrosion-resistant finish for long service life
- Helps reduce wear on coupling components by smoothing towing inputs
- Supports stable braking and acceleration, especially with varying loads
- Consistent performance in everyday site, road and yard conditions
- Direct replacement design to simplify installation and minimise downtime
- Suitable for routine maintenance schedules to restore original towing feel
- Reliable choice for trades, fleet users and DIY owners maintaining trailers
Typical Applications:
Used in trailer coupling assemblies to control fore-and-aft movement and damp shock loads during towing. Common on plant, utility and general-purpose trailers fitted with the Indespension V671 or V971 coupling. Ideal when refurbishing a coupling, addressing harsh towing behaviour, or replacing a worn or leaking damper to regain smooth, controlled performance on road and off-road surfaces.
Also known as:
Trailer coupling damper, coupling shock absorber, drawbar damper, overrun damper, hitch damper, coupling buffer. These terms refer to the same function: a damping unit that moderates movement within the coupling to improve stability and reduce vibration during towing.
