Bargman Trailer Lighting

Bargman is the lighting and electrical connection arm of trailer industry megagiant Cequent. With over a dozen brands under their umbrella, Cequent has innovative products for every aspect of the RV, towing and trailering industry. Bargman products was originally founded in 1931 to provide electrical products for the military. Now they provide support for the commercial truck and light-duty trailer industry throughout North America.

Exterior lighting upgraded to LEDs is a no-brainer for running lights, brake and turn signals to reduce the load on the tow vehicle electrical system, but don’t forget the inside of your box trailer, toy hauler or RV. LEDs are a great lighting system there, and will make your trailer battery last a lot longer between charges. Of course, Bargman has conventional incandescent lighting products as well.

Hooking up your trailer, whether it’s a big RV, a popup camper or a 4-stall horse trailer, Bargman has breakaway kits to apply your electrical trailer brakes in the unlikely event of the trailer coming unhitched at speed. How about some prewired harnesses with trailer plugs installed, for either the car end or the trailer end? And you’ll need mounting brackets for the trailer and vehicle plugs, too. You’ll need testers for the wiring, and if you tow a lot of different trailers, there’s nothing to make hookup simpler than the right adapter to plug a 4-wire trailer into a 7-wire vehicle connector without rewiring either one.

Here’s one example of Bargmans’s innovation: if you have a 5th wheel trailer, sometimes it’s tough to get the 7-wire trailer umbilical to reach the plug under the bumper. No problem, simply add a 7-way socket in the bed near the 5th wheel. Bargman has a prewired connector with a 90-degree bend molded into the wire to fit in between the bed wall and outer fender. Better yet, it has connectors on the other end of the wires to plug into the factory harness at the original connector, making the whole installation a splice-free, plug-and-play fifteen-minute deal.

Founded in 1931 to provide electrical connection products for the U.S. military, the Bargman brand has been a leader in innovation in the light duty trailer and recreational vehicle markets. It offers premium Bargman trailer lights, license plate lights, interior ligths, and many other top-grade products. With emphasis on new designs and quality products for decades, Bargman has become part of the Cequent Performance Products empire, which covers the RV and trailer-towing industry like a blanket, with over 15 brands under their corporate umbrella.

Check with Bargman for the most innovative products in trailer lighting. And there’s one word you need to remember: LEDs. The industry is rapidly jumping on the LED bandwagon, and for good reasons. LEDs enjoy far longer service life, generally longer than the lifespan of the vehicle they’re mounted on, tremendous resistance to vibration, and dramatically reduced current draw. With Bargman lights such as clearance lights, tail and brake lights, etc., you can upgrade your existing trailer or outfit your newly-constructed rig.
