Anti-Swivel Mechanical Park Brake from Trigg Bros

Anti-swivel mechanical park brake by Trigg Bros is essential to use on swivel ring couplings to limit rotation.

Limited rotation helps prevent severe damage to ring couplings. The elongated end on the parking brake prohibits over-rotation.

The bottom base seals override couplings preventing grease from escaping.

Drivers should also be aware of the opportunity to jackknife reversing on an extreme angle. occasionally over gutters.

Quite often the driver will be unaware of a jackknife event occurring at very low speeds. Gutters give a driver a false indication of resistance when reversing however, resistance also occurs during a jackknife.

Stress Fractures

Small stress fractures from jackknife events occur over a period of time.

Rust, as well as fresh steel, can usually be observed in broken castings. The rust portion of the break occurred in the past whereas the fresh break is a recent event.

Driver education plays a big role in providing solutions for transport companies. Couplemate is more than happy to provide engineering advice that helps to ensure a safe working environment.
