Towbars
Benefits of the fixed flange towbar are:
Price, flange towbars tend to cost considerably less than other types.
A pin system required to pull plant trailers and generators can be fitted.
Enables easy fitting of a Towbar hitch guard.
Height adjustable.
Towbar and electrics can be seen when looking at the vehicle
Advantages of a fixed swan neck towbar:
More pleasing to look at than a flange style towbar
Price is likely to be less than compared to its detachable counterpart
Capable of carrying all types of ball mount cycle carriers including bike rack for cars.
Advantages of a detachable swan neck towbar:
The neck of the towbar can be removed leaving the vehicle looking like there is not a towbar fitted and towing capacity is the same as a fixed bar
If parking sensors are fitted to a vehicle the detachable towbar will not interfere once removed
You will not bang your legs or trip on the towbar when utilising your boot or walking around your vehicle when the neck is removed
Capable of carrying any tow ball mount cycle carrier
Compatible with AL-KO and other friction style stabilisers (once the paint is removed off the 50mm ball section)
Neck mechanism is secured to the vehicle hence reduces the risk of theft.
This is the continental style electrical connection used throughout The UK and Europe.
The 13 pin socket has been used mainland Europe since 2008 for all caravans manufactured in Europe.
A 7 pin socket is available also this the standard socket found on most trailers including ifor William's and car trailers.
It can be fitted using a 12v bypass relay connecting into the existing wiring on a vehicle this then does not need programming in turn.
