Nexus Sliding Couplings 
Nexus® SD21 features an innovative dropdown function to allow efficient coupling at a comfortable height for the driver.
Features & Benefits
Designed and manufactured in the UK to meet the highest standards.
Ground Access Coupling
Health & Safety: Driver is not required to get up onto catwalk and work between the truck and trailer.
Lower Coupling Height
Provides a comfortable coupling height even for shorter drivers.
Single Action Extension
One handle to unlock the unit and pull the beam out to the coupling position.
Auto Service Plate Release
Prevents a breakdown scenario because the service plate can never be left locked in a position that breaches the trailer turn radius.
Slides in Transit
Minimises suzi coil stretch and reduces the risk of them snagging on the corners of the trailer.
Maximum Corrosion Resistance
Stainless steel and aluminium construction means long term corrosion protection.
Service Plate: Low Friction Premium Ball-Bearing Rail
Minimises friction in all weather conditions.
Ground Access: Low Friction Premium Ball-Bearing Rail
Minimises friction in all weather conditions. Less force required from driver to extend the beam to the coupling position.
Electrical and Pneumatic Services Pre-Installed
Receive our sliding coupling with pneumatic hose and Trucklite or Aspöck cable extensions pre-installed for plug and play fitting.
Expertly engineered to fit all makes and models
Specification
When articulated vehicles turn, any spiral coils running from the truck to the trailer will be stretched as the vehicle corners.
Nexus® Sliding Rails slide from side to side with the articulation of the trailer to minimise suzi stretch and reduce the risk of snagging on the corners of the trailer, enabling much tighter turning circles.
The Nexus® SD21 is expertly designed for efficient ground access coupling, enabling the service plate to be extended and lowered past the edge of the trailer to allow the driver to couple from ground level with ease.
Sliding Rail Length: 1720mm
Height: 320mm
