Tie Ring,  w/ 4" Bolt Centers- in Aluminum

Specially chosen for the beautiful bright, shiny finish.

Tie Ring, w/ 4" Bolt Centers in Aluminum

These tie rings are made of solid aluminum. Both have a bright, shiny  finish that eliminates any reaction from unlike metals.

1/2" diameter material, 2.25" tall w/ 4" bolt centers. 

Trail Pals tip: These tie rings are strong, but they can crack if tightened down too much during installation. They are designed to break under extreme pressure from a horse pulling back while tied to it, so they will break before pulling a hole in your trailer.

 NEW! Tie Ring  Mounting Hardware - in Stainless Steel

This stainless steel mounting hardware is

expensive & hard to find, but it lasts!

It will look like this on the outside and these mounting kits can be used over & over again to re-mount replacement tie rings, using only two simple tools--a Phillips Head & a Flat Head screwdriver.

We recommend that these tie rings be installed with stainless steel hardware, on both aluminum & steel trailers. The aluminum tie ring is designed to break in an accident before it pulls a hole in your expensive trailer. This mounting hardware we have put together should be able to be re-used to mount a replacement tie ring, instead of starting all over with new hardware and a trip to the hardware store. There are no sharp edges on either side.

Use a 3/8" drill bit for the exterior hole where the truss bolt installs, and a 7/32" drill bit for the interior hole where the machine screw & washer install. The Truss Head goes through the mounting holes on the tie ring, and the screw & washer adjust from the inside of the trailer.  Adjusts for 1 1/4" to 1" thick walls.

**You will receive two Stainless Steel Threaded Truss Bolts, two Stainless Steel Machine Screws & two Stainless Steel 1 1/4" washers in each order (enough to mount ONE tie ring).

Not a "D" Ring, but commonly used on aluminum & steel horse trailers in light applications to hold steel rings and double-ended snaps for corner feedbags, window screens and for holding trailer dividers in a open position (paired with a snap & lanyard). The remarkable thing is that it uses only one screw or rivet, so there are less holes in your trailer. The metal portion is steel, with a non-corrosive zinc finish. The liner is neoprene. When closed, the inside opening is shaped like a teardrop, with a vertical measurement of 1/2". 

Install with #10 sheet metal or TEK screw, sold on the Fastener page.

Not recommended for tying horses, but we've seen it on the outside of trailers (perhaps for hanging feed bags?) and there is a slot in the plastic collar for a water drain. Used in utility trailers as a floor-mount tie down or in trailers used for both off road vehicle use & horse hauling.
