About FBS Industry (Solingen)
FBS Industry is a long-established specialist in drop-forged parts based in Solingen, the “City of Blades”. For over 100 years, the company has been producing high-quality locking technology and fittings used primarily in premium trailer construction and the commercial vehicle sector. Unlike low-cost cast products, FBS consistently relies on forged steel, which makes the components extremely resilient and break-proof.
Quality "Made in Solingen"
FBS products are characterised by a well-balanced combination of ease of use and enormous pull-in force. They are the first choice for manufacturers of horse trailers, tippers and heavy commercial trailers.
- Angle lever locks: Known for their robustness and original-equipment quality. Manufactured in up to 16 production steps, they offer the highest accuracy of fit for dropsides made of aluminium, wood or steel.
- Eccentric locks: These feature a secure over-centre position that prevents unintentional opening while driving. Made from tool steel for maximum service life.
- Hinges and fittings: Solid forged flap hinges and weld-on pins that do not fail even under overloading and hard impacts.
- Security: Many locks are equipped with integrated spring catches or provision for padlocks.
Spare parts for professionals
Due to their solid construction, FBS components are often fitted where durability over decades is required. Whether for welding on in the raw state or in a galvanised version for bolting on, FBS provides the technical basis for safe transport solutions.
Looking for a special FBS lock?
The range of forged components is very specific. If you need a particular size or version (e.g. with a customer logo or special handle) that is not listed online, we can usually source it for you directly from the factory in Solingen.
