7 Pin Aluminium Socket for Vehicles - LG1355

7 Pin Aluminium Socket for Vehicles – LG1355

This 7 pin aluminium socket is a proven, road-lighting connection for towing vehicles running 12 V systems. Built in metal, it’s tough enough for daily use on fleets, trailers and plant. Ideal where you need a simple, trusted socket that just works with standard trailer road lights.

The LG1355 is designed for road lighting only – brake, tail, indicators, fog and side markers – using the traditional 7 pin towing format still fitted on most cars, vans and light commercials. It’s the plug style that has run millions of trailers and caravans across Europe for years, and it remains the go‑to choice on existing fleets and older vehicles. If you’re maintaining mixed-age equipment or supporting customers with 7 pin plugs, this socket keeps everything compatible and legal on the road.

The robust aluminium body gives far better mechanical protection than plastic in busy yards and rough site work. It shrugs off knocks, weather and repeated coupling, so you spend less time hunting electrical faults caused by cracked housings or loose lids. Wiring is straightforward: the insert removes from the body, all pins are clearly marked, and the assembly only goes back together one way, which helps avoid pin mix‑ups during installation or repair.

As European towing slowly shifts toward the 13 pin system – mainly to add a dedicated reverse light and extra caravan functions – the 7 pin format is still widely used for standard trailer lighting. That’s where this socket fits in. It’s ideal for service teams who need to keep existing 7 pin trailers working reliably while new equipment transitions to 13 pin over time. You get a simple, cost‑effective solution for road lighting circuits without unnecessary complexity.
