As these trailers will only ever be towed by your motorcycle there is no need to use the current UK standard trailer plug/socket combination - which is very large and does not sit well on the back of a bike!
After much research we have decided to use a commonly available, robust environmentally sealed connector system well suited to the british weather!
This provides a petite 7 pin watertight plug and socket combination waterproof to IP68. The socket and plug join with a firm push and the outer ring of the plug screws onto the body of the socket - compressing a rubber seal on the face of the socket and making the combination watertight.
Both plug and socket have their own caps to protect them whilst apart again rated IP68.

If you already own a motorcycle trailer this would make an excellent upgrade to your existing plug / socket combination being both completely watertight and more petite than conventional trailer plug / sockets. These are all available separately or in kits in our online shop. (Click here)
The matching trailer cable is a six tinned steel cored cable designed to match the performance of the sockets and is also available by the meter in our online shop. (Click here)
