North West notes on towing equipment & supplies

Farmers around Lichtenburg and Klerksdorp often want heavy tow bars and couplings for cattle trailers and implement trailers. Hartbeespoort and Brits buyers look for boat and caravan tow bars, and fitment centres in Rustenburg, Potchefstroom and Brits handle most of the work.

What breaks down and moves in North West

North West mixes platinum mining, maize farming and weekend escapes from Gauteng. The N4 Platinum Highway runs from Pretoria past Brits and Rustenburg towards Zeerust and the Botswana border, and it carries ore trucks, mine buses and long distance freight. The N12 links Potchefstroom and Klerksdorp with Johannesburg, and the N14 heads west through Ventersdorp and Lichtenburg. Mine vehicles, farm bakkies and tractors on gravel roads, and weekend traffic to Hartbeespoort Dam and the Pilanesberg all add to the call outs. Summer brings hail and heavy storms, winter brings cold mornings and dust on dry roads. Long distances between towns mean many tows are charged by the kilometre, and trailers for cattle and machinery are common.
