CURT 48210 Pintle Hook Hitch for 2-1/2 to 3-Inch Lunette Ring, 20,000 lbs Capacity, Carbide Black Powder Coat

In the realm of agriculture, construction, and even military applications, pintle hitches have become the trusted product for specialized towing. Known for their high weight capacity and simple design, these hitches are renowned for their versatility and dependability.

At the heart of a pintle hitch lies a hook-and-loop system, with the hook attached to the vehicle and the loop mounted on the trailer. This straightforward design allows for a thicker metal construction and a more secure coupling, making pintle hitches a preferred choice for heavy-duty towing.

CURT, a leading manufacturer, offers a wide range of pintle hitches and pintle-style products to cater to diverse towing needs. Their pintle hooks are available in a receiver style, designed to fit a 2" x 2" receiver hitch, or in an adjustable style, allowing for mounting onto an adjustable mounting plate.

One of the standout features of CURT's pintle hook is its impressive towing capacity. Rated for a gross trailer weight capacity of 20,000 lbs. and a vertical load capacity of 4,000 lbs., this heavy-duty hitch is capable of handling the most demanding towing tasks. It is important to note that users should never exceed the lowest weight capacity of any towing component, including the vehicle, hitch, trailer, and others.

To ensure a secure connection, CURT's pintle hook comes equipped with a spring-loaded arm that locks down onto the hook and can be secured with the included safety pin. This feature provides a reliable and stable coupling, instilling confidence in the towing process.

The heavy-duty towing associated with pintle hitches inevitably leads to wear and tear on the equipment. To address this, CURT employs a quality finish on all its pintle mounts, lunette eyes, and combination pintle hitches. The pintle hook is coated with a tough black carbide powder coat finish, providing exceptional rust and scratch resistance to withstand the rigors of heavy-duty towing.

CURT's pintle hook is designed to be versatile, allowing it to be coupled to virtually any lunette ring with a 2-1/2-inch to 3-inch inside diameter. This makes it a suitable choice for a wide range of applications, including construction, agriculture, and military settings.

In terms of installation, the CURT pintle hitch is easy and secure to set up, using the included bolt kit. It is designed to mount onto any CURT pintle mount, including an adjustable pintle hitch mounting plate. This feature allows for convenient height adjustment and level towing, ensuring a smooth and balanced towing experience.

Overall, CURT's pintle hitches and related products have solidified their position as the trusted solution for heavy-duty towing in various industries. Their commitment to quality, durability, and versatility has made them a go-to choice for those seeking reliable and dependable towing equipment.
