Description
Overview:
The Genuine Knott Avonride Short Handle & Pad is a replacement handle set for Knott Avonride trailer hitches and overrun couplings. Built for daily use on working trailers, it combines a robust steel handle with a durable, non-slip moulded grip and a hard-wearing rubber/composite pad that bears against the coupling body. This genuine OEM part (MPN 577000) restores positive, smooth hitch operation and helps maintain secure trailer-to-vehicle connections on standard 50 mm towballs. Suitable for general-purpose, plant, and utility trailers fitted with Knott Avonride hitch heads, it is designed to swap in using the existing mounting points and geometry of the original handle. A practical fix when the original handle is worn, bent or perished, it helps keep coupling operation reliable and consistent in all weather.
Key Features:
- Genuine Knott Avonride part (MPN 577000) for assured compatibility and fitment
- Steel construction with a tough moulded grip for long service life
- Pad component reduces wear at the contact point and helps maintain smooth action

Typical Applications:

Ideal for fleet maintenance, workshop repairs, and DIY replacement to restore smooth hitch engagement and release, reduce play at the handle contact area, and keep coupling mechanisms operating safely and consistently.
