Forged 50mm Combination Pintle Hook Receiver | CM530
The Couplemate™️ CM530 Combination Pintle Hook Receiver allows you to tow both 50mm ball couplings and ring couplings with one pintle hitch.
This component can tow 3500kg ATM trailers with ball couplings and 6000kg ATM trailers with pintle rings.
Couplemate™️ takes great care when manufacturing our trailers, caravans, and towing components. Many Australian mining and council vehicles use our CM530, which always provides safe towing.
Why do Australians love the CM530?
Aussies prefer this component because:
- Maintains strength and reliability through a forged receiver body and high tensile steel tow ball.
- Features accessible, easy-to-use locking mechanisms that keep your coupling secured.
- Easily slides into most Australian-style car and truck tow bars (50.80mm).
- Finally, it allows you to tow multiple trailers with different couplings.
Did You Know? “pintle” refers to a pin or bolt usually inserted in a gudgeon, often seen on cabinetry hinges. In the towing industry, pintle ring couplings function as the gudgeon and provide articulation as you traverse the Bruce Highway.

Important Information
Our Recommendations for Safe Towing
- Always ensure your trailer is level with your tow vehicle. If not, you may need a two-piece setup (such as a CM500 and CM510) to adjust the ball height.
- Remember to take care when reversing. Angles greater than 80 degrees will cause your trailer and coupling to jack-knife.
- Use a high-tensile receiver hitch pin. Everything on your trailer is only as strong as your weakest component. Invest in a rated hitch pin to secure your pintle hook in your tow bar.
D-Values for Trailer Couplings
D-Values assign ratings to tow couplings. These values represent the maximum force that can be safely exerted on the component along a prescribed axis.
So, why are D-values important? When products are assigned a D-value, the developing engineers rigorously test the component to ensure its safety. You can use the configurator below to check that the Combination Pintle Hook Receiver suits your application.
Additional CM530 Accessories
For more advanced towing with ring couplings, Couplemate™ recommends the use of a Tow Ball Protector. You can also benefit from the Couplemate™️ Anti-Rattle Shims, as the design uses a 50.80mm tow bar receiver.
Using the shims and the tow ball protector ensures a quiet tow, no matter where you go.
