Description
Overview:
The Ifor Williams Body-to-Drawbar Over-Centre Clamp 255-285mm (MPN 763 592) is a heavy-duty latch assembly used to lock a trailer body or bed down to the drawbar for transport. It is commonly found on Ifor Williams tiltbed TB range and CT177 car transporter trailers, providing a positive over-centre action to keep the bed secure when closed. The adjustable centre distance (A dimension) allows for set-up within 255-285 mm (10.04-11.22 in) to suit the trailer's hook position, while supporting dimensions B = 88 mm (3.46 in), D = 65 mm (2.56 in), and a Ø 9 mm (0.35 in) hole match typical mounting and linkage layouts. This clamp is intended for robust service on plant, transport and towing fleets where reliable body retention is required. A compatible weld-on hook is available separately for new builds or replacements.
