Ark Ezi-Fold 3500kg Bolt-On Folding Drawbar Hinge – Suits 100x100mm (4″x4″) Steel Trailer Tongues (SKU: EFH100ZD)

The ARK EFH100ZD folding hinge is designed to solve one of the most common problems for trailer owners—limited storage space. It converts a standard fixed drawbar into a foldable one, allowing up to 1150mm of drawbar to swing away to the side. This makes it much easier to store your trailer in tight garages, sheds, or driveways without modifying the trailer’s overall length permanently.

Whether you’re storing a boat trailer, jetski trailer, or utility trailer, this hinge gives you more room without sacrificing strength or safety. It’s engineered for 3500kg capacity and constructed from precision-machined, die-cast steel for durability and peace of mind.
