48mm swivel couplers 8Kg

[Rigger]

I'm looking to buy some 48mm swivel couplers with a SWL of 8Kg +. Does anyone know of a competitive supplier or brand as my regular stock of Doughyt ones with a 7500KG SWL are a little too expensive for this project.

CPC used to do some small half couplers that were very competitively priced. They weren't rated for much - I'll leave it to you to check what.

Believe they did matching full couplers as well.

How about these from CPC? 500kg max load, tubes 48-51mm in diameter. I've not used them before so have no experience of them, just had the CPC catalogue to hand having been looking up stuff for work.

speak to Nigel Clark at Powerdrive 01525 370292, I'm sure he will be able to help.

The Global truss ones from Thomann are more competitively priced than the Doughty ones, I've been using the heavy duty ones for years and very happy for what I paid.

Thanks for ytour comments so far, I will consider buying more for a price break.

another tick for the global truss ones. We use them, and when you get to trade prices, they are less than a tenner each (500kg ones)
