The Air Compensated Pintle Hook w/ Air Chamber & Plunger from Buyers Products cushions movement between the pintle hook and tow ring.
This feature saves wear and tear on parts, especially in sudden motion or braking situations.
The vehicle's air system is used by the pintle hook to hold the drawbar eye closely to reduce wear, absorb shock, and prevent uncoupling during operation.
Ideal for heavy duty applications, the hook is suitable for trailers, semitrailers, and double and triple trailer operations, both off-road and over-the-road.
The drawbar eye dimension for this hook is 2-3/8" to 3" I.D.
w/ 1-1/4" to 1-5/8" diameter cross section.
For off-road use, the load should be reduced by 25%, and a swivel type trailer drawbar should be used.
The air chamber and plunger (PH50ACMK) is included, but can be used as a standard pintle hook without it.
