Rely on tested quality and order pulling devices directly online.

Robustness & function

Towing devices play a central role in heavy commercial vehicle transportation: they transfer the tractive force from the vehicle to the trailer or semi-trailer and ensure a stable connection. Whether towing eye, towing eye bush, fifth wheel coupling or kingpin – each component must ensure a precise fit, high load-bearing capacity and durable function.

Wide range of pulling device components

In our store you will find a large selection of components such as drawbar eyes, drawbar eye bushes, fifth wheel couplings, kingpins and matching repair kits. All components are tailored to the requirements of commercial vehicles and ensure reliable power transmission and high load-bearing capacity in daily use.

Pulling device

What should you look out for when buying:

BOHRMASSE

The exact dimensions are crucial so that drawbar eyes, bushes or fifth wheel couplings can be fitted precisely and ensure a secure connection.

LOAD VALUES

Pay attention to the required load indicators. The D value indicates the tensile force that the device can absorb – a key criterion for safety and usability.

INSTALLATION SITUATION

Depending on the vehicle and area of application, check whether the towing device is designed for welded mounting, plug-in connection or another design so that it fits the existing structure perfectly.

The towing device transmits the pulling force from the vehicle to the trailer or semi-trailer and establishes the mechanical connection between the two. It must safely absorb high forces and ensure a stable, play-free coupling at all times.

Key components include tow eyes, tow eye bushings, fifth-wheel couplings, and fifth-wheel kingpins. For maintenance and repair, there are also repair kits available that include the necessary wear parts.

The D-value is a standardized measure of load-bearing capacity. It indicates the tensile force that the coupling can sustain continuously during operation. The coupling must meet at least the D-value required for your vehicle-trailer combination—a key criterion for safety and registration.

Towing eyes, bushings, and fifth-wheel couplings must fit the existing holes and mounts exactly. If the dimensions do not match, the component cannot be installed securely, and the connection would not be able to withstand the load reliably. Therefore, check the dimensions carefully before placing any order.

Depending on the vehicle and its intended use, towing devices are designed for different mounting methods—such as welded mounting or plug-in connections. Make sure the design is compatible with your vehicle’s existing structure.

Signs of wear include noticeable play in the connection, visible material wear or scoring, an out-of-round or worn-out tow eye, and rattling noises during towing. Worn components compromise safety and should be replaced immediately.

Pulling devices are safety-critical components and are subjected to high loads during daily use. They should be inspected regularly for play, wear, and damage, and maintained in accordance with the manufacturer’s specifications. Replace wear parts in a timely manner using the appropriate repair kits.

We carry tow eyes, tow eye bushings, fifth-wheel couplings, fifth-wheel pins, and repair kits for all major commercial vehicle brands, such as MAN, Mercedes-Benz, Scania, Volvo, DAF, and Iveco.
