Description
Overview:
This integral coupling security lock with keys (MPN 763 182) is designed to immobilise the coupling head on a wide range of Maypole pressed steel and cast couplings. The lock inserts into the keyhole-shaped aperture in the coupling head and, once turned, blocks the handle mechanism so the trailer cannot be hitched or unhitched. It is suitable for selected 35 mm, 50 mm and 60 mm coupling variants and for typical capacities from 1,300 kg to 3,000 kg, making it a practical solution for general trailers, plant transporters and similar towed equipment. Supplied as a bulk item without retail packaging, it comes with two keys for day-to-day use in workshops, hire fleets and site operations where quick deployment and straightforward control of trailer movements are required.
Key Features:
- Integral insert lock that prevents the coupling handle from being operated
- Simple quarter-turn action; key removable in the locked position
- Helps prevent both hitching and unhitching while fitted
- Compatible with selected Maypole pressed steel and cast coupling heads (see applications)
- Suits models covering 35 mm, 50 mm and 60 mm coupling variants and 1,300-3,000 kg ranges
- Supplied with two keys
- Bulk supply without retail packaging (retail-packed version available separately)
- Quick to fit and remove; no additional brackets or drilling required
Typical Applications:
Used on the coupling head of trailers and plant transporters to secure the hitch mechanism during storage, yard moves or on-site. Typical fitment includes Maypole MP80 (50 mm pressed steel), MP71503 (60 mm pressed steel), MP202 (heavy duty cast 50 mm), MP1923 (1,300 kg pressed steel 50 mm), MP1925 (1,300 kg pressed steel 60 mm), MP1927 (universal 1,300 kg pressed steel 35-50 mm kit), MP1943 (1,700 kg 35 mm pressed steel), MP1945 (1,700 kg pressed steel 50 mm), MP1993 (universal 2,000 kg pressed steel 50 mm with adaptor), MP1995 (3,000 kg heavy duty pressed steel 50 mm) and MP2031 (3,000 kg heavy duty cast 50 mm).
