MP500B E Approved Heavy Duty 50mm Towball Black
Maypole is proud of it’s great heritage of manufacturing and distributing products which are supplied into Automotive, Trailer, Towing, Leisure, Marine and Agricultural markets. The company was founded in 1969 and one of the first products produced was a trailer lighting board. 50 years later we are still producing these boards, except these days there are over 100 different designs and we produce in the 10’s of thousands (not 10’s!).
Over the years the company has gone from strength to strength, starting off in tiny premises in a suburb of Birmingham called Maypole. Hence the company name – not very original, but we like it. Gradually the company expanded through various sizes of premises, until in 2008 we moved into our current 50,000 sq.ft. warehouse and office complex in Woodgate Valley, Birmingham.
The product range has also expanded from less than 100 lines to nearly 3000. This grows year on year in line with market trends and government legislation. We have a large customer base with whom we actively deal and communicate with, which helps us produce and source the products they require that is needed in the market.
If you wish to return your order for what ever reason, we accept returns within 14 days from the date in which your order is received. To request a return please visit our Terms of Sale where you will find a Cancellation Form. Returns cannot be accepted if the internal packaging has been opened, or the product has been assembled or fitted unless faulty.
Unsure which towbar to choose? The difference between dedicated and universal electrics? All is explained in detail on our towing guide pages, but here's the short of it...
Fixed flange towbars are the most versatile, at the cost of being bulky and are likely to trigger reversing sensors. Fixed swan necks lose the versatility of the flange type but gain a sleeker fitment, are less likely to trigger sensors and look better to suit.
Detachable towbars are similar to swan necks but can be removed fully when not in use maintaining your vehicles appearance. Guarantees proper operation of reversing sensors.
7 Pin (12N) provides your basic lights except for reverse and is ideal for bike carriers, trailers and caravans where power feeds are not required. 12S and 13 Pin provide an ignition switched and permanent power feed in addition to reverse and is primarily used for caravans.
Dedicated or VSK electrics are the recommended choice especially for DIY fittings as they include full instructions and provide a more professional fitment. Universal electrics are also an option but take more care to fit properly.
