Description
Overview:
The Swan Neck Towbar Socket Mounting Plate (MPN 763 114) is a bracket designed to position a towing electrics socket on vehicles fitted with a swan neck towbar. Swan neck towbars do not have a standard flange for bolting sockets, so a separate mounting plate is used to provide a secure, accessible location for the electrical connection. This plate is suitable for both 7‐pin (12N/12S) and 13‐pin towing socket applications, supporting common trailer, caravan and bike carrier wiring setups. It helps place the socket close to the towball for tidy routing and reliable plug engagement, and is suited to new installations or as a replacement for a damaged or corroded bracket. Typical users include workshops, fleet operators and towbar fitters working on cars, vans, 4x4s and light commercial vehicles used for plant transport and general towing.
Key Features:
- For use with swan neck style towbars
- Accepts standard 7‐pin (12N/12S) and 13‐pin Euro towing sockets
- Provides a stable mounting face near the towball for trailer/caravan electrics
- Suitable for repairs, upgrades and retrofits to existing towing setups
- Helps maintain neat cable routing and plug access
- Trade-friendly design for straightforward fitting with typical towbar hardware
Typical Applications:
Used to mount a 7‐pin or 13‐pin electrical socket on vehicles equipped with a swan neck towbar, including cars, SUVs, vans and light commercials. Common in towing installations for trailers, caravans, plant trailers and cycle carriers where a dedicated bracket is required to hold the socket securely and in reach of the trailer plug.
