Trailer Hardware Solutions Built for Performance
Innovative, reliable, and engineered to perform — explore Austin Hardware’s top products showcased at NATDA 2025. From safety systems to corrosion protection, these solutions are built to support trailer OEMs, repair shops, and dealers.

Safe Assist Ramp Door Assist
Make ramp door operation safer and easier with Safe Assist. Designed to eliminate physical strain and hazardous cables, Safe Assist renders heavy trailer doors virtually weightless—now supporting a broader range of torque from 100 to 1200 foot-pounds. The fully concealed design is made of non-corrosive aluminum and adjusts easily for installation and use across multiple door types.

Chemicals for Repair & Maintenance
Stock up on trailer-safe chemical solutions designed for maintenance and repair. Our lineup includes adhesives, sealants, corrosion blockers, and cleaning agents tailored to the trailer industry. Ideal for aftermarket service, field repairs, and preventive maintenance, these products help extend trailer life and ensure reliable operation in tough environments.

ECK Corrosion Protection
Protect against galvanic corrosion at the source with ECK. This advanced chemical barrier is applied between dissimilar metals to seal out moisture and neutralize electrochemical reactions that cause rust and degradation. Use it during trailer assembly or repair to preserve structural integrity and reduce long-term corrosion damage.

Floor Screws
Built for strength and vibration resistance, our trailer floor screws are engineered to secure plywood, composite, or aluminum flooring to steel or aluminum frames. Coated for corrosion resistance and available in multiple sizes, these screws offer holding power that lasts through the life of the trailer.

Drag Wheels
Reduce undercarriage damage when trailers bottom out with our heavy-duty drag wheels. Featuring an all-steel construction, self-lubricating bushings, and a front skid plate, each wheel supports up to 3,750 lbs. The bolt-on design installs easily to both steel and aluminum trailer frames.

Trailer Safety Chains
Keep trailers securely connected with our high-tensile safety chains, designed to meet DOT requirements and prevent detachment in transit. Available in multiple grades, finishes, and sizes, these chains are essential for compliance and peace of mind—whether for OEM builds or replacement parts.
