Description
Overview:
The Knott-Avonride Damper Kit for KFG27 and KF27 is a replacement damping unit used in trailer overrun couplings to control drawbar movement. Built with a robust metal body and internal damping mechanism, it absorbs shock loads and reduces vibration through the coupling, helping to keep towing smooth and controlled. A 12 mm diameter mounting hole provides a precise fit where specified on the coupling assembly. Suitable for use on plant, utility, and equipment transport trailers often used around construction sites and in grounds care, it supports consistent performance and helps protect surrounding components from excessive stress. Identified by OEM reference 576002, it is a practical choice when restoring the function of worn or weak dampers on KFG27 or KF27 hitches.
Key Features:
- Designed to suit Knott-Avonride KFG27 and KF27 overrun couplings
- 12 mm diameter mounting hole for correct alignment and secure fit
- OEM reference 576002 for straightforward identification and ordering
- Reduces snatch and vibration in the hitch for smoother towing
- Helps maintain responsive overrun braking and stable trailer behaviour
- Durable metal construction for reliable performance over long service
- Compact form to fit within the coupling housing without modification
- Straightforward replacement using standard hand tools and workshop methods
Typical Applications:
Used on plant and equipment trailers, utility trailers, and transporters fitted with KFG27/KF27 couplings. Ideal for site work, hire fleets, landscaping, and general towing where consistent braking response and reduced drawbar shock are important. Helps limit wear on coupling internals, brake linkages, and mounting hardware during daily use.
