7+ 4 Pin /12V Combo-Socket has developed an optimized trailer socket combining the standards SAE J1239 and J2863 by Erich Jaeger. The socket enables vehicle operators to couple any kind of trailer to their SUV, car or pickup truck without the use of an adapter. The 4-pin connector according to SAE J1239 is intended to connect all types of trailers whose gross weight does not require trailer braking (to a maximum of 10,000 lb). The 7-pin connector according to SAE J2863 is necessary whenever a trailer exceeds this weight thus requiring trailer braking.
The trailer socket by ERICH JAEGER is water and corrosion resistant due to a number of features including the use of high quality double-plated contacts, optimized cover and interior seals and dedicated drainage holes according to the mounting position of the socket.
A patented closing system using push rods effectively prevents the covers of the two connector systems to be opened simultaneously. The whole assembly fits the car manufacturers’ original mounting brackets and – as usual for ERICH JAEGER products – comes in OEM quality.
