Before purchasing tow bar receivers, it’s important to ensure that your tow bar rating is appropriate for your trailer weight.
A solid 50mm towbar ball mount typically has a Class IV or 4t rating, depending on the grade of the tow bar. If your tow rating is 3.5t, then the tow bar receiver rating should also be 3.5t or lower.
Towbars are subjected to static load testing upon installation, and your tow bar installer will certify it according to Australian Standards.
It’s also important to inspect hitch pins and hitch pin clips for wear and tear at least once a year, as loose clips can fall out due to repetitive removal and re-insertion.
This tow bar receiver is suitable for towing boat trailers, horse floats, caravans, and trailers.
