What to look out for when choosing a towbar
A towbar is more than just a connection to a trailer – it is a safety-critical component. Key parameters are:
- D-value: load capacity during driving
- Nose weight: maximum weight that rests vertically on the coupling (e.g. for bicycle carriers)
- Gross vehicle weight: must not exceed the permissible limits
- ECE approval: guarantees safety and legal compliance throughout Europe
The finder takes all these factors into account, so you only receive tested and approved systems.
Important for type approval
If your motorhome is already equipped with a chassis extension from AL-KO VT or SAWIKO, you may only fit the original towbars together with the corresponding reinforcement components. Only then does your TÜV approval remain valid, ensuring your safety.
Combining products from other manufacturers is not permitted and may result in the loss of your type approval.
