75mm x 2000kg Override Ring Coupling – 75mm, 3-inch Hole, 41mm wide ring
75mm x 2000kg Override Ring Coupling suits all types of Pintle Hooks. The ring portion of the coupling is cast and machined as one piece.
- The width of the override ring is 40mm
- 4 Hole spacings 184mm x 54m x 1/2 inch
- This Ring Coupling has a 360-degree rotation
Use pintle hooks when connecting a 75mm ring coupling on the tow vehicle.
75mm x 2000kg Override Ring Couplings provide greater flexibility over ball couplings and are less likely to disengage over rough or uneven terrain.
75mm ring couplings with a greater capacity than 2t are used as towing hooks on trailers up to 40t. The limiting factor in this override pintle coupling is the spring within the housing. This spring limits the load to 2t.
Limit Rotation when Reversing
Drivers should also be aware of the opportunity to jackknife reversing at an angle. Quite often, the driver is unaware that a jackknife event is occurring at very low speeds.
Importantly, take care when reversing, as the uneven ground can cause the coupling to twist and bend the pintle hook head.
Reversing at sharp angles (Jackknifing) bends the shaft on the ring coupling.
Hairline Fractures
We have found that couplings do not instantly break during jackknife events. However, hairline cracks develop over time and compound until separation occurs.
The event will be relatively minor and seem insignificant. The truth is that cumulative fractures over time have finally caused a separation, evidenced by rust marks in the bare metal.
The ring coupling in the image is a two-piece Coupling held together with a cotter pin.
Driver Education
Driver education is the key to safe motoring. Before driving, it is a must to inspect the vehicle and trailer, especially the high-wearing components.
Where signs of wear and tear is discovered, report it to your immediate supervisor and/or log the event for your own protection..
