Sliding Coupling Features

Nexus® systems are proudly designed and manufactured in the UK.

Single Action Extension

One handle to unlock the unit and pull the beam out to the coupling position.

Auto Service Plate Release

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.

Ground Access: Plastic Bearings

A durable solution to operate at a reduced cost.

Service Plate: Low Friction Premium Ball-Bearing Rail

Minimises friction in all weather conditions.

Service Plate: Plastic Bearings

A durable solution to operate at a reduced cost.

Corrosion Resistant

Galvanised steel and aluminium construction has a lower price compared to stainless steel.

Ultra Low Height

Provides sliding rail/ground access where standard size rails can't be accommodated.

Lower Coupling Height

Provides a comfortable coupling height even for shorter drivers.

Ground Access Coupling

Nexus® Sliding Couplings are expertly manufactured to fit most trailer types

Looking for a Mavis Rail or suzi Rail? Nexus® Sliding Couplings allow the driver to couple and uncouple at ground level, as the service plate can slide freely from side-to-side of the vehicle. This makes the process of coupling and uncoupling the trailer much safer, because the driver does not have to climb on or off the potentially slippery catwalk to deal with the service cables.

An innovative system, to enable safer and more efficient truck and trailer coupling.

Nexus® Sliding Couplings enable you to couple the truck and trailer very closely, thereby reducing the drag from the trailer and increasing the overall fuel efficiency of the vehicle. All of our Sliding Couplings are engineered to our exacting standards to ensure they continue to slide freely for the life of the vehicle with minimum maintenance.
