Tow Bars & Accessories

Tow bars are specialized devices installed on the rear of a vehicle to enable it to tow another one, often in the form of a trailer, caravan, or another vehicle.

These include tow balls, protecting plates, towing cables, electrics, brackets, and clamps, amongst others. The tow ball accommodates the mechanical attachment between the tow bar and the trailer, ensuring solid and secure connections. On the other hand, electrics provide necessary connections for lighting systems, indicators, and brake lights on the towed vehicle.

3. Brackets and clamps serve as additional securing points, reinforcing the attachment for a safer towing experience.
