Trailer Socket Bracket, 7 Pin Trailer Wire Connector For Heavy Duty Socket Mounting Plate Tow Bar Replacement Power

A trailer socket left hanging off its own wiring gets dragged through gravel, fills with water and eventually pulls apart at the terminals. This plate bolts to the tow bar and gives the socket a fixed home, so the plug goes in square every time instead of being wrestled onto a swinging target.

Pressed steel, bolted to the bar

Steel is what lets the plate take the repeated shove of a plug being pushed home and the weight of a hanging lead without flexing. Once it is bolted up the socket cannot shake, and vibration is exactly the failure mode this part exists to stop — movement works the crimps loose long before the plastic housing gives up. No plate thickness, finish or coating is published, so if the trailer lives near salt water, inspect the surface treatment when it arrives and add your own protection if needed.

Check the hole sizes against your tow bar

The supplier says the plate suits two tow ball connection sizes, quoted as approximately 16 mm (0.63 inch) and 19 mm (0.75 inch). It does not state whether those figures describe the mounting hole diameters or the tow ball stem itself, so measure the hole size and bolt spacing on your own bar before ordering. Several further holes are pressed into the plate for routing and fixing different trailer wiring harnesses. Overall plate dimensions are not published — compare the photos against the space you have.

Key features

• Steel construction: holds the socket rigid so vibration does not work the terminals loose.
• Two quoted fitting sizes: approximately 16 mm and 19 mm, as stated by the supplier.
• Multiple harness holes: accommodates different trailer wiring layouts.
• Aftermarket replacement: a bracket for trailers and tow bars, sold on its own.

Specifications

• Material: steel
• Quoted fitting diameters: approximately 16 mm (0.63 in) and 19 mm (0.75 in), basis not specified by the supplier
• Suits: 7-pin trailer socket mounting
• Plate dimensions, thickness and finish: not published by the supplier

Before you bolt it up

• This is the mounting bracket. The supplier does not state that a socket, plug or wiring is included.
• Trailer electrics and towing hardware are safety items. Have the fitting and the lighting circuit checked by a qualified person before towing on the road.
• Measure your tow bar hole diameter and spacing against the photos before ordering.

Measure first, then get the socket off the loom and onto a plate where it belongs.
