Trailer Breakaway Cable 1m 6mm Hook & Eye for Caravans

This 1m towing breakaway cable is a replacement safety component for trailers and caravans. Made with 6mm wire and supplied in a hook and eye style, it is used as part of the towing setup to activate the trailer or caravan brakes if the unit becomes detached from the towing vehicle. It is a straightforward replacement part for keeping an existing towing arrangement correctly equipped.

Suitable for caravan owners, trailer users and anyone carrying out routine towing checks, this cable is useful when replacing a worn, damaged or missing safety cable. It is commonly fitted during servicing, pre-trip inspections and general maintenance, especially where buyers need to match an existing hook and eye arrangement. For regular road towing, having the correct breakaway cable in place is an important part of the overall safety setup.

The 1m length suits common towing arrangements and gives a clear reference when matching an existing part. This version includes an 8mm hook, 6mm wire and a 50mm ring, which are often the key measurements needed when checking compatibility with current fittings. Keeping these dimensions clear helps buyers choose the right replacement without unnecessary guesswork. The cable can also be kept as a spare in the caravan or trailer storage area so a replacement is ready when needed during maintenance or before travel.
