This 1 metre long breakaway cable, encased in a robust PVC sheath, is an essential safety feature for your trailer. It is characterised by a practical snap hook and a ring that make it easy and secure to attach. The PVC coating protects the rope from the elements and wear and tear, giving it increased longevity.
The breakaway cable has a particularly important function: if the trailer is unintentionally uncoupled, it ensures that the trailer's handbrake is automatically activated. After fulfilling its task, the cable breaks off to prevent further danger. This safety feature minimises the risk of the trailer becoming independent and causing potentially dangerous situations.
With a length of 1 metre, the rope offers sufficient scope for most trailer models. It is essential equipment for any trailer owner who values safety and reliability.
Frequently asked questions about this product
Trailers fitted with a brake system require a breakaway cable. This connects the overrun brake system to the towing vehicle and activates the brake should the trailer become detached from the coupling whilst in motion. A sheathed steel cable approximately 1 m in length, fitted with a snap hook, is standard.
How to attach it correctly: to a fixed point on the towing vehicle, not to the ball neck itself — otherwise the cable will slip off when the coupling is released. It must not drag on the ground, but nor should it be so short that it activates the brake when cornering.
Unbraked trailers have a safety connection made of rope or chain instead of a breakaway cable, which only prevents the drawbar from falling down.
When to replace: Breakaway cables are wear parts. A frayed outer sheath, visible rust, broken strands or a bent or stiff carabiner mean: replace. The cable is also checked during the annual roadworthiness test.
Choose from: Breakaway cables.
