Description
Overview:
The Knott-Avonride Cast Locking Head is a heavy-duty coupling component for trailers that use 60 mm (2.36 inches) drawtubes. Built from robust cast metal, it forms the main clamping head that secures the trailer to the towing vehicle, helping maintain a stable and safe connection under load.
