This ensures long life and reliability in everyday use .

Trailer hardware, such as hitches and side locks, play a crucial role in ensuring the safety of transported cargo. They enable the sides to be securely and quickly closed , preventing them from opening while driving. They are used on all types of trailers – from transport trailers to construction and agricultural trailers – especially when frequent opening and closing of the sides is required. They ensure the sides remain securely closed even under heavy loads, ensuring safe and comfortable transport of goods.
