Approach Plate Roller Guide

Approach Plate Roller Guide attachment for 10, 12, and 16-Series steel car carriers.

This new attachment enables 180 degrees of light-duty recovery capability at the back of the carrier.  The roller guide attaches to the approach plate and fits steel car carrier beds ONLY that are 2018 year and newer.  This roller guide attachment is designed to be used with 3/8” and 7/16” wire rope and it is rated for 3,500 lbs. of line pull.

The roller guide attachment is engineered to the highest standards of durability, and is constructed of fabricated steel with Zinc plating for corrosion resistance.  This attachment utilizes the newer style approach plate with a bolt hole adjacent to the center rear chain lock for proper mounting.  Older steel carriers that do not have the bolt hole can be retrofitted by simply tapping a specific sized hole at a precise location on the approach plate.

This attachment hooks to the underside of the approach plate and locks into place at the center chain lock hole.  A 1-inch machined round-head bolt secures the attachment to the threaded hole in the approach plate.  Providing a rigid securement to the carrier bed makes this roller guide is ideal for rollover recoveries.  A low-mounted horizontal roller enables downward pulling off the back of the bed as well.
