Meet the DO35 V3plus With Handbrake 1" Tow Pin — a refined evolution of Cruisemaster’s DO35 series designed to tackle heavier caravans and broader weight distributions with confidence. The DO35 Version 3 (DO35v3) delivers a robust 3500kg ADR‑rated connection that combines rugged durability with smarter, simpler setup for real-world adventures on and off the road.

• 3500 kg ADR rated towing hitch built to meet demanding safety standards while handling the load of modern caravans.
• Over 50% stronger than the previous model thanks to a precision blend of forged steel, high‑quality polyurethane, laser‑cut stainless steel, and meticulous casting processes.
• Lightweight strength thanks to advanced manufacturing that increases durability without adding unnecessary weight, improving overall towing efficiency.
• Eliminates hitch adapters to get you on the road with fewer steps and less fuss, streamlining installation and reducing potential points of failure.
• 1" tow pin with Handbrake option — available with or without handbrake to match your preferred setup and braking requirements.
• High articulation in all directions ensures your trailer tracks your vehicle smoothly across challenging terrain and enhances safety in adverse conditions.
• Positive locking mechanism paired with a Checklock cap keeps dirt out and clearly shows the coupling is securely attached before you hit the road.
• Patented tow pin and view port provide effortless alignment of the vehicle and trailer, even in technical terrain or low‑visibility scenarios.
• Durable finish with E‑Coat for superior corrosion protection. Note that extended UV exposure may fade the coating; covering the coupling when stored outside is recommended to preserve the look and longevity.

Who is this for? If you’re towing heavier caravans, tackling off‑grid campsites, or navigating mixed terrains where reliable articulation and easy line‑up matter, the DO35v3 is engineered for you. It’s a practical upgrade for serious caravanners who value smoother towing, fewer adapters, and a secure, easy‑to‑verify connection every time you hitch up.

Key benefits in real-world use include easier alignment in tight spaces thanks to the integrated view port, faster hitching without compromising safety, and a robust build that stands up to the rigors of long trips and variable road conditions. Compared to traditional couplers, the DO35v3 focuses on eliminating complexity while delivering predictable handling and enhanced protection against dirt ingress and corrosion.

For installation, maintenance, and proper use, refer to the DO35 User Guide to ensure you get the most from your DO35 V3plus. Regular checks of the locking mechanism, hitch pins, and the Checklock cap, plus periodic protection against UV exposure when stored outdoors, will help maintain peak performance over the long haul.
