Required Information
Because of the wide variations in trailer doors, we need special information from you when you order lockrods. To make sure that you receive the proper lockrods for your needs, we require the following information:
Order Example Typical Lockrod Order
| Model: | HV-SH |
| Hand: | RH |
| Cam Center Length: | 110.56″ |
| Lever Height: | 14" |
| Finish: | Hot-dip Galvanized |
| Quantity: | 4 |
This is the lockrod model that you need, for both the bottom cam and top cam. The bottom cam is listed first. (For example, you would specify HV-SH, with HV signifying the bottom and SH signifying the top. Another example is DL-NH. (DL is the bottom, NH the top.)
Additional Considerations
When ordering lockrods, you should be aware of the following:
- Lockrods can be ordered with or without mounting components.
- One rod guide is usually used per lockrod. If additional rod guides are required, you must specify that. Order two half bushings for each additional rod guide ordered.
- Keepers are ordered separately. Keepers are available in several mounting options, finishes, materials and offsets. Please talk to our Powerbrace customer service department about the proper keepers for your trailer needs.
- Standard mounting components usually used with each lockrod (same finish as the ordered lockrods) are as follows:
2 – guide plates
4 – guide plate half bushings
1 – rod guide
2 – rod guide half bushings
1 – seal plate
1 – seal pin
