270 Slack Reducing Coupling

Like the 2200, our 270 slack reducing coupling offers the most popular bolt mounting pattern in the industry.  This coupling’s low profile, wear-resistant Premalloy, and quick, easy latching are features that have made the 270 standard with fleets around the world.  It must be used with an air service chamber. With a 90,000 lbs. maximum gross trailer weight and 12,000 lbs. latch capacity, this coupling is perfect for your mid-to-heavy duty applications.
