## Description

Out of the monotony comes one name that rises above all others. CURT trailer balls are designed for strength, ease of use and, ultimately, to get you to your destination without hassle. CURT 2" trailer hitch balls are constructed from quality steel and are made with precision to fit your 2" trailer coupler like a hand in a glove. They are able to tow most standard-duty and heavy-duty trailers such as utility trailers, boat trailers, campers, livestock trailers and recreational vehicle trailers for hauling ATVs, snowmobiles, personal watercraft and more. These tow balls are an excellent extension of your class 3 or class 4 trailer hitch and ball mount, and are the ideal choice for most pickup trucks and SUVs (NOTE: Never exceed the lowest weight capacity of any towing component; i.e. the vehicle, hitch, trailer, etc).This particular 2" trailer ball offers a ball capacity of 6,000 lbs. It features a 1" shank diameter, a 3" shank length, 0" of rise and a nickel-chrome finish to protect against rust and scratches. With its fine-threaded shank, this 2" trailer ball also offers an added measure of holding strength and provides smooth installation and torqueing. To give you peace of mind while towing to that next destination, we also carefully test our trailer balls and ensure that each one meets U.S. VESC specifications.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What size socket does the nut need to be tightened with?**
A: It's a big ol' nut.  I used a big crescent wrench.  I would guess about 35 mm, but not 100% sure.

**Q: Does anyone know if this has a a hole in the shank for the safety pin?**
A: No hole in the threaded section.

**Q: Will the 1" diameter shank fit inside a hitch with a 1" diameter hole, or does the hole need to be bigger, e.g., 1-1/8", or 1-1/4"?**
A: Yes, the 1” shank on the ball will fit in a 1” hole on your hitch.
