5th wheel couplings or the gooseneck horse-float Coupling is ideal for mobile homes, horse floats and caravans over 4.5t. This Coupling operates via a tow ball CM298 (not Included) inserted in or on the bed of a pickup or similar truck of suitable capacity.
The tow ball is 3 inches in diameter with a 2-inch shank.
Important Note: 10t Gooseneck Autolock Coupling Specifications
The CM520 10t gooseneck auto-lock horse-float coupling can only be matched with the CM298 3″ tow ball.
On occasions, two balls require reinforcement. We can provide a ring base to fit onto the tow ball. The ring to the left is approximately 120mm wide and 37mm in height. The tow ball collar strengthens the plate between chassis rails by spreading the load across a greater surface area.
