Why is the D-Value important?

Towing capacity for Pintle Hooks is critical when selecting the correct pintle hook, as the towing capacity varies depending on the weight of your truck and trailer.

Finally, the hitch rating is a force measurement obtained through dynamic testing (2,000,000 cycles at full load), where maximum pressure is applied to the pintle hitch. In the case of a Couplemate 10t pintle hook pintle ring on the right-hand side image, the “D-Value” is 49kN.

Mismatched towing components wear and break prematurely.
