Shrimp gold handle / Banekan

A spring can, also called a shrimp metal handle or a tailgate catch, is a part that secures the tailgate of a truck in the closed position. By pulling the handle of the spring can, the lock can be easily released, allowing the tailgate to be opened (tilted outward toward the loading platform).

Shape and mechanism of the spring can

The spring lock has a handle that you grip when operating it, and a ring (shaped like a bottle opener) on the other side of the handle to hook onto the catch. The spring in the middle secures the spring lock when it is locked.

When you pull the handle of a locked spring claw, the spring contracts and the force is released, releasing the lock and the ring part comes off the spring claw receiver (hook part) and the receiver. Conversely, when you hook the ring part onto the spring claw receiver and return the handle, the spring expands and the force is applied, eliminating the play and locking the receiver.

Spring canisters can become weak or break, and if they have deteriorated over time they will need to be replaced.

There are many different types of Banekan

Spring hooks are divided into types such as "round bar type," "punched type," and "press type" depending on the shape. Sizes also vary depending on the spring hook, so please select the one that suits your purpose based on the size of the truck, etc.

Yamada Body Works sells both "round bar type" and "punched type" and "pressed type" spring hooks, and they come in a variety of sizes. There are short types with a length of 215 mm that can be used for low height door frames and storage doors, spring hooks with a length of around 300 mm, and thick, strong spring hooks that are suitable for heavy door frames, so you can choose the one that suits your truck.
