The UA 72H from 36 to 53 tonnes offers a new mechanical safety ratchet system (patented) to prevent accidental unlocking of the equipment and it is in compliance with ISO 13031. Arden Equipment has developped a new series of couplers from 2 to 36 tonnes (UA13 to UA63) in order to enhance and bring the safety of couplers to a new level and comply with the norm EN 474‐1 + A5. In addition to the cylinder and the safety valve, this new series brings 2 compression springs for a first mechanical safety and an axle locking pallet at the front hooks for double security.
The new UA72H and UA 3 couplers are still equiped with the V shape hooks allowing them to be operated on buckets with different pin sizes.
