Brophy Trailer Tie Down Anchors - RR05

  • Recessed Mount
  • Bolt-On
  • 1600 lbs
  • Zinc-Plated Steel
  • Brophy
  • Folding

This steel D-ring creates an attachment point for tie-down straps and bungee cords wherever you need cargo control. The recessed design allows you to roll cargo over the ring and is zinc-plated for corrosion resistance.


Features:

  • Tie-down provides a solid point to secure your cargo with straps or bungee cords
  • D-ring rotates 90-degrees so you can attach straps from multiple angles
  • Recessed design allows cargo to slide over the ring without interference
  • Zinc-plated steel construction resists corrosion and retains its strength through repeated use
  • Simple, bolt-on installation
    • Mounting hardware not included
    • Optional backing plate provides greater support than if the anchor was mounted alone (sold separately - BP05)


Specs:

  • Maximum load (break strength): 5,000 lbs
  • Working load limit: 1,600 lbs.
  • Anchor:
    • Bezel dimensions: 4-1/2" wide x 4-7/8" tall
    • Ring diameter: 1/2"
    • Inner ring diameter: 1-3/8"
    • Recess dimensions: 3-3/8" wide x 3/4" deep
    • Bolt hole dimensions: 3/8" wide x 3/8" tall
  • 1-Year limited warranty


Note: Tie-down anchors must be chosen according to their safe working load limit (WLL). The weight of the secured cargo must not exceed the combined WLL of the anchors being used. For example, if you are using anchors with a WLL of 100 lbs each to tie down a load weighing 400 lbs, then you need at least 4 anchors to safely secure that load. It is recommended that you always use anchors in pairs.

After 15 years my old floor anchors were rusting out! I redecked my trailer and installed these new flush mount anchors! Very well made and heavy duty!



by:

one year later and it hasnt broken. I have 4 of them holding my car on a 18 foot flatbed car hauler



by:

These showed up and after looking them over seem to be the same as what my local big box store was selling, these were a better price, now to cut holes and base plates.



by:

Re-did floor on 40ft trailer. Do animal recuse also exotics. These will work great added a few more to tie down tiger cages. Thank you for the help and also the upgrade on shipping.



by:

I just got the product in and it looks as advertised. I can’t say if it’s great yet but have to say Chedi at etrailer provided amazing customer service. I had a mistake on my order that he cleared up. He made sure to follow up and make sure the process was smooth.



by:

Exactly what I needed



by:

D-Ring tie downs are of high quality and along with the RR05 backplate, it will safely hold whatever you want to secure. Shipment is fast.



by:

Customer service is and has been fantastic from etrailer. Each and every order has been shipped and handled with speed and acuuracy. Can't ask for any better from a company in a world of poor performers (the competition).

Installation is easy. Works great

Just what the steel doctor ordered! These tiedowns only supplement my stakebed, but wow what a great addition.



by:

Rock solid, chose to weld them on and there definitely not going anywhere. Originally bought 2 and once I saw the quality I ordered 4 more. as usual etrailer was quick and easy....fast shipping



by:

I was expecting to get bolts, nuts and backing plates with these. What I got did not include those items.

The product description indicates that the # BP05 backing plate and hardware arent included. The reason we dont sell everything together as a kit is that the exact hardware needed and the need for the backer plate will depend entirely on the surface where the D-ring is mounted. A substantial metal surface wouldnt necessarily need a backer plate. The hardware needed can vary between a wood and a metal surface.



by:

Good, solid, sunken tie down that works very well for my application. BP05 backing plate is what I picked up as well.



by:

Great tie downs for things like lawn equipment, ATV's, etc. Hole saw a hole big enough for it to fit flush and bolt on.



by:

Solid product and received order in a great time frame.



by:

The recessed trailer tie-downs are a great product. I have used them numerous times since I added them during a trailer overhaul project. Still work great!



by:

Just as described. Ordered because you was only one that had backing plates. Checked all local stores first.

No problems and they work great. Thanks again.

While I had to wait for supply delay issues, they are worth it. My new ATC trailer came with 4 tie-downs and backing plates exactly like these. I have used the trailer with a car and look forward to adding these 8 additional tie-downs for motorcycles. They are of great quality and function properly.



by:

This is an excellent product that I would but again. I started the project of installing D-rings in my utility trailer with d-rings purchased from Home Depot. The HD D-rings were the exact same product but with circular mounting holes (instead of the etrailer d-rings with square holes). The HD d-rings were a mistake. Hex bolts are really the only standard fastener that works with the circular holes. While hex bolts work they have sharp corners that catch on anything slide over them (like the heavy antique furniture I had to move for the gf). The hex bolts are also a 2 person job to install as with most installations you can't reach both the bolt and nut at the same time (2ft high sides to the trailer prevented an easy reach). The square holes allow installation with carriage bolts which were readily available at any home center in galv and SS. These have rounded heads that minimize catching/hang-ups when sliding materials over them. They also eliminate the need to hold the bolt head from rotation which keeps install to a 1 person job. Again, excellent product. I wish I didn't waste my time and $ buying the HD version the first go-around.



by:

Good I would say....mounted in the wooden floor 3 1/4 in. hole + modifying to the "D" shape takes time though. 10 each were mounted to the floor perimeter 6x12 foot floor (deck), two 8 grade bolts catch the trailer metal frame, two other bolts with washers only mount to the wood deck. When secure load, most pressure is basically horizontal, I am comfortable with a load secured.



by:

These were received quickly. The quality is excellent. I use these as tie-downs on a new ATV trailer I purchased. Very happy with them.

Great only problem the hardware should include steel plates for under trailer floor



by:

Tie downs were exactly as described. Fulfilled my needs for what I was using them for.



by:

Great representative and great product!



by:

Great product and everything was included in the package. Even bolts.

This is definitely the way to go if you ware strapping down a med sized load. My application was ATV's and a UTV. I decided to strap over the tires so I used these and welded hooks for my application. See my pictures for details.

If you are looking for the right tiedown, this is it in spades.

  • Should E-Track be Used in Bed of Trailer that Will Haul Dirt or Rocks
    If you are going to be carrying dirt and rocks in your trailer you really aren't going to want to put E-tracks on the floor. They'll get full of debris like you mentioned and would make shoveling out of the trailer much more frustrating. A better option would be a flush mounted tie down anchor like the aprt # RR05.

  • Is Backing Plate Required When Installing the Brophy D-Ring Tie Down Anchor # RR05
    A backing plate isn't necessarily required when installing the Brophy D-Ring Tie Down Anchor # RR05, but it will add additional support. I recommend going ahead and installing a backing plate for peace of mind and to be extra safe. The backing plate that you will need is listed as part # BP05 on our site. Some installation videos have been linked for you to check out as well.

  • Comparing Brophy and etrailer D-Ring Tie Down Anchors
    Based solely on price and capacity the etrailer D-ring anchor part # RRING-R6000 and the Brophy part # RR05 do not make perfect sense but they are made by two different companies and sometimes we are able to get better deals on things from one company. What I do really like more about the Brophy is the square bolt holes that allow you to use a carriage bolt that will hold itself in place when tightening whereas the etrailer has round holes and would require someone to hold a wrench to...

  • Using a Backing Plate for D-Ring Placement on a Trailer
    The backing plate BP05 will definitely make for a stronger tie down point, especially if you are not able to bolt the tie down ring to the trailer frame. If you can mount the ring through the frame at all four points, then you would not need a backing plate for installation. If you use washers and do not mount through the frame of the trailer, you must be aware that the installation will not handle as large a load, due to the reduced mounting surface.

  • What Size Hole Is Required To Mount The Brophy # RR05 Recessed 5K Trailer Tie-Down D-Ring
    In order to mount the Brophy Recessed Trailer Tie-Down D-Ring # RR05, you will need a hole that is 3-3/8 inches in diameter. We recommend you use the backing plate system if you are not attaching this to either a trailer framer or trailer with a steel bed.The Brophy # RR5K includes the backing plate and all necessary hardware. I have attached a short video showing an installation of the tie-down kit.

  • Safety Chains and Cargo Tie Downs for 6 x 10-Foot Flat Deck Utility Trailer
    Thank you for the photo of your utility trailer that appears to already have safety chains installed near the coupler. Safety chains should be selected based on trailer weight and on the length you need. If your trailer has a 3500-lb-rated axle then chains like 60-inch 5K Curt part # C19749 would provide sufficient capacity and their latching hooks will make for easy attachment. If you prefer shorter chains you might prefer the 27-inch 5K # 2118-605-04. For a weld-on bracket you might...

  • Should D-Ring Tie Downs be Placed in the Center of 1 Board or Between 2 Boards on a Trailer Floor
    Since a 2x6 board is large enough for the whole D-ring tie down # RR05 you could go either way. But if you decide to put it between two boards I would center it between the two boards so that it is secured evenly. I also recommend using backing plate # BP05 to better disperse the weight on the floor.

  • Are Brophy Trailer D-Ring Tie Downs # RR05 Suitable for Use on a Car Trailer
    According to my contact at Brophy, their # RR05 Trailer D-Ring Tie Down has a working load limit of 1600-lbs and a break strength of 5,000-lbs. (Working Load Limit or WLL is the maximum burden that should be put on the device in daily use.) This makes this sturdy 2-1/2-lb tie down perfect for use on a car hauler trailer. In a typical trailer configuration with four or more of these tie downs being used at the same time you will have at least 20,000-lbs of capacity for securing the loaded...

  • What Diameter Hole Needs to be Cut for the Brophy D-Ring Recessed Tie Down
    We recommend using the Brophy Backing Plate, # BP05, with the Brophy D-Ring Tie Down, # RR05. The diameter of the hole in the backing plate is 3-3/8 inches. The backing plate will provide a more secure installation and give the tie down extra support. You could install the tie down without using the backing plate, but you would still want to cut a hole that is 3-3/8 inches in diameter to ensure the recessed portion will fit. The recessed part of the tie down measures 3/4 inch deep. You...

  • Recommended Enclosed Trailer Size And Harley Street Glide Special Biker Bar
    From my research more than likely the smallest available enclosed trailer you can get both to fit in is a 8.5 x 24 foot. The next smallest is 8.5 x 16 but the two Harleys will probably be a tad too long to fit into that size enclosed trailer. Your best option is to measure your bikes sitting next to one another (with the handle bars positioned to not rub one another) and measure the length to make sure you get an enclosed trailer that is wide enough. Those were just the two sizes I could...

  • Can Recessed Trailer D-Ring Tie Down RR05 Be Installed on a 3/4 Inch Plywood Trailer Floor
    You can mount the Trailer D-Ring tie down, # RR05, in a plywood floor but you will need to add the backing plate, # BP05, for each one for more support. The backing plate will better disperse the stress on the floor so it does not get damaged.

  • How to Secure a Vehicle on an 8 X 18-foot Wooden Deck Car Hauler Trailer
    To secure your vehicle on the wood deck of your 8 X 18-foot car hauler trailer I suggest you consider straps rather than chains. Straps offer lighter weight, reduced chance for scratching the vehicle and are often easier to use than chains. They also will not corrode like chains. The Dutton-Lainson 40-inch cables you referenced are intended for use with tow bars for flat-towed vehicles. We have better options for you. For example, we offer the Erickson Car Tie Down, part # 58503. It can...

  • How to Carry 2 Vespa 300 Scooters with a 32ft Class C Motor Home
    Your best option for carrying your Vespa 300 scooters with your Class C motor home is to pull a small trailer. We do not have any hitch mounted motorcycle carriers that will allow you to carry both scooters at the same time. We have everything you need to equip a simple cargo trailer for carrying both scooters. A few parts you will want to look into are wheel chocks like part # TWSPWC3BT (1 per scooter), tie down rings like part # RR05, and tie down straps, like # EM31352.

  • Where Should I Mount D-Ring Tie Down Points In Relation To The Front And Rear Of The Tire?
    Hey Dwayne that is a great question. Generally, we would want the tie down points to be in line with the front and rear of the tire. So the # EM58522 straps would hang straight down and connect to the # RR05 D-ring. You can also angle them forward if needed. It really depends on the trailer, the tire and how much space you have to work with. There really is no rule of thumb for how far away the tie down point can be, so if you have to go a foot away from the tire you definitely can. I...

  • Installing Brophy D Ring Tie Down in 2 X 6 Boards
    Since the hole will be covered by the D-ring # RR05 you'll still have a professional look if you us a chisel. When we installed them (see the linked video) we actually drilled all the way through the trailer floor because it was plywood. We used a 3-1/4 inch hole saw.

    The Brophy D-Ring Tie Down Anchor # RR05 from our inventory that I checked was stamped with its 5000-lb break strength rating. The part's 1600-lb working load limit (WLL) rating is not indicated.

  • Pull Rating for the CE Smith Tie-Down Bracket for Trailers # CE26214G
    I spoke with my contact at CE Smith and unfortunately they do not have a pull rating for the tie-down bracket # CE26214G. However, he did say that because the brackets are 7 gauge steel, 2 inches wide you should have no problems securely tying down a full-sized ATV to your trailer. I have included a link to a video showing the dimensions of the brackets. A second option would be the Brophy Utility Trailer D-Ring Tie Down # LRB1 which has a 1/2" ring diameter and measures 2-1/2" x 2-3/8"...

  • Will a 3-1/4 Hole Saw be Enough for Installing Recessed Trailer D-Ring Tie Down # RR05
    You really would need a 3-3/8 inch diameter hole. A 3-1/4 inch hole would leave you about 1/8 of an inch too small. If you have a router, you could use a straight cutting bit to slightly enlarge the hole enough to get the tie down to fit.' The # BP05 backer plate is also recommended.

  • Is Stainless Steel Tie Down D-Anchor Needed for Install in Aluminum Bed
    Hey Mark, so we don't have a stainless steel version of the Brophy D-Ring Tie Down Anchor part # RR05 but it sounds like you are worried about dissimilar metal causing corrosion so what you could do is use this but put some gardening plastic between the mounting plate and the aluminum and you'd be fine. That's what we do here when we install steel gooseneck hitches in aluminum truck bed.

  • D-Ring and Backing Plate Recommendation without Hole Cut In Center
    The reason the part # BP05 has a hole in the center of it is so that the recessed D-ring part # RR05 can fit into it. Without the hole the D-ring wouldn't fit it. If you are wanting a similar backing plate for a different application the # RR2K might be a better option as it comes with a D-ring to attach to it and doesn't have the hole.
