- Description
- A Trailer and caravan coupling bellow that is designed to protect the mechanism of a trailer or caravan’s overrun coupling mechanism from the damage and wear caused by dust, dirt or water ingress. They are designed to match the respective profiles of the coupling head at one end and the drawbar at the other, in order to provide an optimal seal. Coupling heads and drawbars vary greatly in terms of design and profile, depending on the manufacturer and other specifications such as fixing method and load capacity etc. These are bespoke to trailer and caravans, rather than being of a generic design which could be used elsewhere. Trailer and Caravan Coupling Bellows are usually made either from rubber or PVC. Packaged in bulk master cartons.
